1. Because This is My First Life
Korean Drama - 2017, 16 episodes

“ People face choices every moment of their lives. All those various choices come together to make their lives. ”
One of the most memorable drama I've come across. Every episode were full of emotions, full of stories, and beauty. A must watch indeed.

" I'm back where I belong. "
This had a PERFECT ending *still crying my eyes out though*. The main CP in here started my addiction for married couple main leads lololol. I mean look at them in this poster- lovingly stare at each other - its making me swoon all over again...

5. Chicago Typewriter
Korean Drama - 2017, 16 episodes
" Carpe diem - seize the day, focus on the present and make the most out of it. ”
Damn, this is so underrated. The best friendship drama for me, their trio-bond really remained strong even after hundreds of years... *cries* -
6. Kai Duan
Chinese Drama - 2022, 15 episodes
" Good Morning. :)) " so sweeeet
I want mowwwre of this. Watched this drama with my brother, and we racked our brains for days to find the culprit lmao. Maybe that's why I liked this so much. -
7. The Evil Face
Chinese Drama - 2022, 18 episodes
" Her appearance isn’t imprinted in my eyes—it’s etched in my heart. If you really aren’t her, treat my words as utterances for her three years ago. "
The main man in this drama is the definition of a green flag itself lol. Also, the damsel yet full of integrity Shi Qi, is definitely one of the best female lead I've encountered in drama land. -
8. Go Back Couple
Korean Drama - 2017, 12 episodes
" Marriage is not happy ending. "
I worried for baby Seo-Jin almost every episode qwq. Thank goodness they showed me his face in the end or else I'll cry a river lol. -
9. The Legend of Gu and Jue
Chinese Drama - 2021, 49 episodes
Liu Xue Yi, Zhou Dong Yu, Xu Kai And Mao BuYi. That's it, what more reason do you need? ?
Bawled my eyes out till its dry for a whole month after this ended. qwq.

10. Yu Jiao Ji
Chinese Drama - 2022, 22 episodes
" Where you are, is where Home is. " - said the overly kind mermaid I fell in love with (not the toxic one in part 2 btw) lol
I still remember wanting the novel's writer to go to jail for making the female lead suffer so much here lmao. -
11. The Untamed
Chinese Drama - 2019, 50 episodes
" You can not be immune to all those condemnations even as you stay outside of the world and do whatever you want. "
Even though there are hundreds of heartbreaks here like this quote, the soulmatism is still soulmating perfectly here y'all.

12. Arthdal Kronieken deel 3: De Prelude Naar Alle Legendes
Korean Drama - 2019, 6 episodes
“There are many sorts of crimes and sins, but there’s only one that you get punished for. Weakness. Being weak and stupid. Only that will never go unpunished.” – Sateunik / Eunseom
“To those who have a reason to stay alive, how they live and what kind of pain they must go through doesn’t really matter.” – Tanya
“Until you know what having power is like and what it’s like to never be satisfied, you won’t understand.” – Saya
“Only tragedy awaits leaders who are not well-liked by the people.” – Tagon
“We, humans, indeed cannot learn without pain. ” - Taelha
As you can see (and read lol sorry for those long quotes), each character in this beautiful mess are all loveable (and VERY hateable). Well, if you like concepts like hot *cough* beastly *cough* men or prophecies from a clueless saint, then dive into this world now! -
13. Thirty But Seventeen
Korean Drama - 2018, 32 episodes
" Whether you let that sadness become something regretful or turn it into a wonderful memory is entirely up to you. "
This was another drama that made me cry so much. I even made one of the OSTs an alarm clock so that I could force myself to wake up every morning (after being in tears) lol. I easilybecame attached to all of the characters, I especially miss Jennifer! -
14. Half of Us
Chinese Drama - 2023, 24 episodes
Absolutely loved it, and the stunning cast definitely added to the allure!
No fire extinguisher could ever douse the flames of this drama.
From the breathtaking cinematography to the captivating plot and undeniable chemistry of every couple, everything is simply perfect!
