I have been watching chinese drama all my life and now I came to a dead end where I have absolutely no decent drama to watch. I prefer historical drama over modern drama but both are fine. If you guys know any 'hidden gem' or a drama that you like please recommend me. I would really appreciate it, thanks (○’ω’○)
Historical: Nirvana in Fire, Legend of Concubine Zhen Huan, Battle of Changsha, Bright Sun and Gentle Breeze (the person above mentioned Lost Love in Times but I found that one incredibly boring but you should check it out because it might suit your tastes!!)
Modern: The First Half of My Life, Surgeons, Ode to Joy (I also like historical more than modern but these 3 modern cdramas are my favorite modern ones of all time)
These are Chinese dramas I really liked but idk about your tastes haha
ihatebutterfingers:krystalsoojungs I've never heard of Bright Sun and Gentle Breeze. Could you post an MDL link?
https://mydramalist.com/26048-bright-sun-and-a-gentle-breeze it's not a very popular drama overseas (I actually added this entry onto MDL lmao), but it had pretty good reviews in mainland China when it aired. I'm actually rewatching it now since I watched it when I was younger when it first came out and don't remember it in detail haha but just as a warning it is kind of sad and heavy. I think it's more likeable/relatable if you understand that era of history or your parents/grandparents experienced that era of Chinese history. (FYI this drama doesn't have engsubs)

Could I ask in here too or should I make a new thread? anyway, following chmimi's question, is there any C-Drama lately that had the same cuteness like Eternal Love? Light, fun with romance?
