My Top 10-8.0 Rated Dramas Taiwan, Philippines, & Hong Kong
You can pretty much give all of these a 8 - Many have started in this list with a ten to be changed later. That is the nature of enjoyment, and the aftermath of hindsight. All you really need to know, all are recommended.
My Top 10-8.0 Rated Dramas from Taiwan, Philippines, and Hong Kong - notes are not detailed and sometimes only one word to describe my feelings. As a watcher of movies from these countries - My challenge to myself, to watch more dramas from Taiwan, Philippines, and Hong Kong. I had a lot of fun watching these. Cheers, A
