I am obsessed with Costume / Wuxia etc dramas at the moment and am looking for a series that has a male lead that has high intelligence similar to what is seen in genres such as Mysterious Lotus Casebook and Joy of Life. I am not really seeking a drama that has the God / Immortal but I still love the concepts so would be happy to try them out.
These two are some of my favorites. I have just started watching the Ingenious one and it isn't exactly my cup of tea, but will stick to it to see how it goes.
Note: Currently Watching Nirvana in Fire as well.
Added bonus if it has any of these traits:
- Hidden Identity
- A lot of Combat
- Minimal Romance - Happy to have romance, just don't make the whole plot about it.
- Bromance / Brotherhood
Hm...
The Advisor's Alliance/ Growling Tiger. Roaring Dragon
Bonus - Uncle Samsik (currently airing and fairly niche, but if you want a very bright and scheming main character and a great bromance it's a fantastic drama).
LotusRayne:Hm...
The Advisor's Alliance/ Growling Tiger. Roaring Dragon
Bonus - Uncle Samsik (currently airing and fairly niche, but if you want a very bright and scheming main character and a great bromance it's a fantastic drama).
These are some great looking dramas :o Definitely a lot of conspiracy looking ones. Might give Sword Snow Stride & The Advisors Alliance a crack first! Thank you for the recommendations <3
Maybe...
- Ever Night (great fight scenes, hidden identity, romance is minimal in season one)
- Listening Snow Tower (good fight scenes, there is more romance in this one but there's more than just that going on)
- My Journey to You (again romance, but great fight scenes, hidden identities, and bromance)
Also, I haven't seen it yet but from what I've heard The Blood of Youth would fit.
