Favorite Dramas

Meteor Garden 2001 is just legendary. It was one of my first Taiwanese dramas that I genuinely loved and enjoyed as a kid! F4 aka JVKV still holds a special place in my heart! It may not have the best quality, fashion, or setting but the acting were great and passionate. The chemistry among the leads you can't deny it! 

JVKV are my  F4 forever. 

Going down the memory lane of old, classic Taiwanese dramas, this is no exception of being one of the best Taiwanese dramas out there. AAAH! Its still one of my favorite because of its unique plot - well during the time this drama aired it was pretty unique in my opinion.  Definitely recommend watching it if you wanna see some handsome men, brotherhood, gang fights, rebelling, etc. xD JUST WATCH IT! IT'S ON NETFLIX! Although, the subtitles might not do it justice. 

My MVP Valentine may not be your cup of tea due to its low production and quality but for me it is one of my favorite childhood dramas. I've always love the setting of this drama, albeit some of the characters were annoying. The OST introduced me to one of my favorite singers, BoA as well as the kpop group, Shinhwa. Although during this time I was not in kpop until later on in my teenage years. haha
The setting revolves around basketball so if you like basketball you may like this. However, do not expect the acting to be superb. Some of the actors in here are/were real basketball players fyi.

Currently on netflix

I don't remember if this drama was popular during its time of airing, however I  loved it because I can relate with the female lead's character health issue. That's one of the reasons why I loved this drama because it has something I can relate with. However, the overall plot is actually quite sad, bittersweet but also cute.  It has a very nice plot, and it pretty much triggered my love for lavender. xD

Prepare some tissues. That's all I'm going to say. :( 

It's also on netflix!

Fated to Love You Taiwanese version. There's not much to say because I can tell you the acting was more convincing and passionate in this one than the other versions. ESPECIALLY THE HEARTBREAKING SCENE! Maybe I'm being biased, sorry not sorry. 

The Chinese Paladin series is one of my favorite wuxia series ever!!It is also one of my first wuxia series that I personally enjoyed (along with 2006 Return of the Condor Heroes)

The CGI may not be the best but it passes IN MY OPINION! The plot was interesting because its about the descendant of NuWa and her journey in protecting her kingdom as finding her true love. Its a bittersweet drama let me just say that.

This version of the Hana Yori Dango series is also a popular one. Even my brother liked it! haha It has more exquisite fashion, settings, and very nice acting. This and Meteor Garden 2001 are classics, so its a must watch! 

If you want me to choose between The Untamed and Joy of Life, I'd choose Joy of Life. Although both dramas were my top 2 favorites of 2019. :) 

Joy of Life is one of the rare Chinese dramas that I thoroughly enjoyed EVERY minute of because of its hilarious lines, and subtle expressions the lead actor plays. The martial choreography is amazing to watch as well as the plot was very interesting! I definitely recommend this drama if you're looking for something fun to watch and doesn't drag in the middle.  You can read more of my in-depth review on the Joy of Life page as well.  :)
