This is exactly the kind of fucked up murder-based period marriage I am here for. God, so fucked up, so glorious. I can only imagine how much mdl hates this drama and it fuels my glee train like nothing else.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Is prince dude great husband material? Between a large harem, a penchant for murder and torture of those displeasing him, marital assault, and a very fucked up relationship with the truth, nope nope nope, I'd rather marry a tree or become a nun. But I am metaphorically weeping tears of unabashed joy to finally finally finally, for the first time since probably early 2021, having a period cdrama ml who comes across as someone who actually could fit into a period royal family and not a modern man in costume - of course he will kill those who offend him and not blink, of course he will lie and manipulate as means of advancement and survival, of course he wouldn't know normal relationships if they bit him, his biggest offer of love to a lady is making her prime consort (what is that only spouse business you mention?! are you insane?!) and he is quite happy to have knocked up multiple wives at once. The wonder isn't that a period royal forced his concubine when she didn't want to have sex with him but that he refrained from doing so for six months and feels bad afterwards and I love love love love that this narrative actually gets that this dude is not a contemporary dreamboat but a fucked up representative of a very different time and place.

Giving me mad FWSC vibes and that is always glorious...
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I love that he gives her his ginormous dagger and prepares to have his throat slit in compensation.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And calmly drinks his booze as she contemplates whether to stab him to death. I love that it honestly could go either way.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
A much much calmer version of this:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(God, I loved my drama queen (emperor?) LCY...)
Though dudes, perhaps if you held off your hormones and emotions a bit in check and managed to control your urge for sexual assault and other insanity, you might not need to beg for a bit of a stabbathon. Calmer all around.

MY BOSS 2024
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
If you are looking for an office romance slash legal drama then this one is for you.This one is a slow burn romance and it takes a little while for the leads to open up to each other.
Qian Heng is one of the famous lawyer in the legal industry yet his sharp toungue personality made him so domineering and arrogant.He co founded a legal firm together with his friend Wu Jun who hired Cheng Yao to be his assistant.Prior to this he have met Cheng Yao who became her housemate due to some problems with the housing agreement.They started to live together despite of a clash in their personalities.However with a twist of fate they started working together. They were misunderstandings at first but later on they started to know each other.
Cheng Yao was assigned to handle on a few cases under the mentorship of Qiao Heng who trained her to become an efficient and professional lawyer. Later on,Yao Yao was able to learn the ropes of becoming a good lawyer after all her sister Cheng Xi also works in the same field.
There were so many things that You can actually learn from the drama and how they solve the cases.But there are also episodes that bore me out.
The leads were already giving hints that they like each other but they weren't brave enough to confess.Qian Heng did change a lot after he met Cheng Yao.They were even funnier and sweeter when they became a couple.
Also Cheng Yao did a wise move to resign from Qian Heng's company because it could help her grow and spread her wings even more.But like any other relationship they have to learn and understand each other's boundaries.
Cheng Yao made very good friends in the company who cheered her up and she was able to succeed through her own hard work and persistence.
I think 36 episode was just a bit long.The ending was too short.I must say the wedding is very much Cheng Yao and instead of those fancy dresses they just had a simple wedding.
Overall the drama is funny and heartfelt.

Modern Cdramas I watched in 2023
This was my first year in Dramaland (both Chinese and Korean). And I have to say that for the most part I have enjoyed my journey in discovering the dramas. This list includes dramas that were released before 2023 as well.
9. Love of Replica
This one of those dramas with lookalikes where the female lead impersonates her lookalike and solves the mystery about her backstory. Also, it's a bodyguard romance so I definitely expected some things going in. It's full of cliches and tropes some enjoyable and some irritating. I have to praise Yu Yue (actress portraying the female lead), she really made me believe that lookalikes were two completely different people. The chemistry between the main couple is fire. I did not enjoy the secondary characters' romance. However the overall squad energy and their team dynamic was great. I kinda guessed the twist but was surprised by how dark the drama went. Overall, I liked most of it and I was disappointed how some of the characters ended up. If you want a bodyguard romance with kinda obvious twists with very good cast chemistry then you'll probably like it.
8. Parallel Love
This is a time travel drama (you'll see more of these in this list) where Lin Miao, the female lead travels from 2020 to 2010 and she must help Jiao Yang, who is the Vice President of Hong Yu, become the president of the company within 3 months otherwise she will disappear forever. What I liked most about is that Lin Miao is very competant and smart, even if she is not experienced for the task she will still try her best and give it her all. I enjoyed the romance and the dynamic of the main leads. It definitely has plot holes regarding time travel and the rules were not properly explained. They also did not really focus much on the time travel part and did use the potential things that they could do with time travel. However, the interaction between the present and the future Lin Miao was very well done and something that many people would be able to relate to. The business plot was medium and not very interesting. The main leads' personalities and character arcs was the reason why I enjoyed the drama. However, they left the ending ambiguous so if you don't mind open endings then you'll enjoy this time travel/corporate romance drama.
7. Love under the Full Moon
Another time travel drama with a twist that Lei Chu Xia (female lead), who has time travelled 10 years into the future can't leave Xu Xiao Dong side beyond a certain distance. Together they work to recover her memory to unravel the mysteries of the past decade. This drama has great romance, unique time travel premises further in the series, good character development for the main and secondary cast, an antagonist that seems like a real person which makes it seem like we could meet someone like them in real life and a plot with unexpected paths. However, it does have a bittersweet open ending which could make some people hate the drama. Despite that I really liked the drama.
6. Mr. Bad
One day, Nan Xing, an online novel writer makes a wish for an "unforgettable love" in a wishing pool. Then, Xiao Wu Di, the villain of her story, suddenly appears before her! She tries to avoid him, but Xiao Wu Di finds her and threatens her into taking care of him. Unfortunately for him, Nan Xing's wish comes with a special power: whenever she needs help, Xiao Wu Di teleports next to her to fulfill her wish. It's fun, fluffy and sweet with not much angst. The romance is cute and the dynamic with the secondary cast is enjoyable. The ending frustrated me but I assume they did it to pass the censors so I just pretend the last 7 mins don't exist. This is one of those shows you can watch when you just want to turn your brain off and watch a sweet story.
5. My Lethal Man
It's premise is similar to Love of Replica however here Shen Man Ning, an art student takes the place of Zhuang Xin Yan, granddaughter of a business tycoon. Yan Xing Cheng, the mysterious male lead is ruthless in pursuing the mastermind behind the threats and is not really sympathetic to Xin Yan but as they face the difficulties together they fall in love. The romance is so good and their dynamic is very different from typical ones. I found the secondary characters' romance weird and poorly done. The plot was really good and the pace kept moving along nicely. Except for the secondary romance, I had a great time watching it, I really recommend this one if you want a drama that balances mystery/thriller and romance and does a good job at both aspects.
4. Love in Time
A time travel drama again ! This is the last one though. This one is unique because the appartment in which He Zhen Yu has recently moved into merges with it's past one. This is how he meets a rookie reporter Chen Jia Lan who is a former tenant from four months ago, and through some miracle, they are able to see each other. When they attempt to prevent future misfortunes by changing the past together, their romance blossoms. Their romance was so good that I really ended up hardcore rooting for them to get their happy ending. I don't want to give away too much so all I'll say is that the time travel and its consequences were handled very well for the most part and the plot was interesting and took surprising turns. He Zhen Yu's character arc was very well portrayed on the other hand while in the beginning I related to Chen Jia Lan, in the latter part of the drama I was frustrated with her choices and how she didn't have a character growth moment. All the actors did a good job but I have to say that the main leads' acting was very good and made me very immersed in their story. All in all, I had a very good time watching it as the ending brought it all together for me.
3. Lucky's First Love
It's one of those office romances which has a light tone for the most part. Xing Yun is competent and hardworking who was there with Xia Ke when he started the company. They have been working together for years and have deep understanding of each other and work well together. Thankfully, Xia Ke is not one of those CEOs who are jerks and cold hearted. He may be reserved but he is quite caring (not in an overt way) not only towards Xing Yun but also his employees. Xing Yun does go out with someone else in the start but it doesn't last long and love triangle shenanigans are not long drawn out. The main leads' romance is sweet and depicts their daily interactions and they have great kiss scenes. The secondary couples are also great. This drama has character development for main and secondary characters, wholesome workplace and family dynamics, no over the top melodrama, lifelike workplace and relationship issues, slice of life interactions and very little angst. This is a great watch for when you need something short and sweet that's not too heavy.
2. Ordinary Greatness
The show mainly focuses on novice police officers that are starting their one year long mentorship. They soon discover that the grass-roots work is different from what they imagined, and, after some struggles, they're gradually moved by the sense of achievement and honour gained in their work. Throughout the show we explore their characters, their comraderie with each other, with their mentors and with other police officers at their station. We also get to know their mentors and other police officers at the station which immerses the audience in the show deeply. It is a slice of life type drama, where most of the cases are not major crimes. All actors knock it out of the park with their emotional as well as subtle portrayals. This show depicts how even small acts and seemingly tedious and insignificant work really have great impact on people's lives and that the people doing such grassroots work contribute just as much and are just as important to the society if not more as the people doing big acts like taking down criminal gangs. While some situations and cases are specific to China, everyone will be able to relate to majority of them. I must say this is a must watch drama.
1. Arsenal Military Academy
This is a Republican era drama in which Xie Xiang assumes her brother's identity to join the Chinese army and is accepted in the Arsenal Military Academy. While she is the main lead the story also follows Gu Yan Zheng(main lead) - a spoilt quarrelsome rich kid, the gentle and introverted Shen Jun San, Qu Man Ting - a famous actress and singer and secondarily other cadets, their teachers and other locals. It has great comedy, really good romance (including their hilarious bickering), enjoyable action and entertaining dynamic of the cast. All the actors did an excellent job here, the standouts being Bai Lu, for portraying being able to convincingly play the female role and the female disguised as male role all while knocking out her emotional and comedic scenes and Xu Kai, who can forget his electrifying performance as a lovable troublemaker. I have to warn you that the story gets serious in the last 10ish episodes and that the love triangle does drag out a little bit longer than it should but it's resolution is still good. To me the drama didn't seem overly patriotic so I didn't have a problem rooting for the characters and their goals of protecting and improving their country. This ranked first because it's romance, characters and their comraderie won me over completely.
You can also check out my costumed cdrama rankings.
As I'm still a newbie to cdramas and kdramas, I welcome your recommendations.

Chaoyangsauras
Chaoyangsaurus was a ceratopsian dinosaur from the late Jurassic found in what is now northeastern China.  Chaoyangsaurus is also considered basal for the ceratopsian group meaning it was one of the earliest ceratopsians.  This means that Chaoyangsaurus can help show us what early ceratopsians may have looked like.
Another fun thing about Chaoyangsaurus is that it was referenced many times before it was properly described.  Because of this all of the names Chaoyangsaurus was given where nomina nuda (the plural of nomen nudum).  A nomen nudum looks like a scientific name but it was not published with an adequate description of the organism so it cannot be accepted as the scientific name. So Chaoyangsaurus was is in an odd scenario where remains where found all the way back in 1976 but was only formally named in 1999!
Chaoyangsaurus is named after Yang Zhongjian who has been called the “Father of Chinese Vertebrate Paleontology”
Thanks for the interest in this unique dinosaur!

@neverthelessbutterflies​ asked for favorite cdrama characters in another post! HERE WE GO with a top five off the top of my head
FAVORITE CDRAMA CHARACTERS
Tumblr media
chu xuanji, love and redemption. im limiting myself to one L&R character, otherwise that’d be the whole list :’D but i love xuanji so much. she’s clueless, she’s funny, she’s the god of war with a 10 lifetime long vendetta against heaven, nbd. has the best power-up song in cdrama
Tumblr media
li cheng yin/gu xiaowu, goodbye my princess. A REAL PIECE OF SHIT. but so magnetic and fascinating to watch. cheng yin would be the villain in any other drama, but in his own he’s the male lead and holy shit the way chen xing xu could turn on a dime from happy puppy in love with his wife to unhinged future emperor was incredible
Tumblr media
cheng shaoshang/niao niao, love like the galaxy. this might be premature, since the show hasn’t finished airing, but i adore niao niao. she’s a STEM nerd who has a wicked streak to her and she’s just a really fun and engaging female lead. you get why she has three suitors!
Tumblr media
sheng minglan, the story of minglan. a really unique cdrama lead-- she’s incredibly clever, but also works within the constraints of society at the time (no weirdly anachronistic mannerisms to show she’s intelligent) and oh, god, does this poor girl need a hug. gu tingye was also great fun-- i had a hard time deciding between them
Tumblr media
ma zitan/prince an’ping, the rebel princess/monarch industry. LOOK I KNOW. in a drama full of amazing characters, i dont understand why i love zitan the most of all of them. but he was so perfectly useless, confused about what drama he was in, and hilariously self-involved that he just delighted me every time he was on screen. best moment was poppa wang showing up in an emperor’s outfit and kicking him off the big boy chair
honorable mentions
ziqui, go ahead
jin yu & wu ji, sound of the desert
qian qian & han shou, romance of tiger and rose
su can can, wait my youth
hao du and princess leyan from the long ballad
everyone in monarch industry
almost everyone in love and redemption

Tumblr media
Back from the Brink - my main interest is that I really love the author of the novel (The Legends, The Blue Whisper are also hers); I am neutral on the cast. Hopefully this is a half decent adaptation.
Tumblr media
Legend of Anle has posters that are entirely too cheerful for the vibe of the novel which is more Monarch Industry than romcom candy floss of the posters but I live in hope. Both Dilraba and Gong Jun can be good in the right kind of role so here is hoping!
Tumblr media
Speaking of not matching the vibe of the novel at all, how are these the BDSM tormented violent headcases Tantai Jin and Susu? Luckily, the other promo materials including filming clips give me hope this is just cutesy promos and not the actual drama vibe.
Tumblr media
Now, THESE people know what I like - yearning! Cheng Yi and Yang Zi got me pretty excited for Immortal Samsara. We know I am here for photogenic suffering. Always.
Tumblr media
Love Where the Stars Fall - love the cast; just let Chen Xing Xu unleash his inner psycho! Please!!!
Tumblr media
Guuuuh, gimme all in for the angsty time travel romance and not just because both Allen Ren and Li Qin are intense faves. Just pls no more fake chests ahahaha!
Tumblr media
Meet Me In Your Sound is also serving what I like despite the bizarro title. Mmmm.
Now that China effectively banned harem dramas and dangai, let’s play guessing games which genre or subgenre gets banned next and thus which of these or other potentially fun cdramas won’t air due to genre issues/will end up shredded to nonsense/get banned at the last minute because someone involved in it will have a scandal.
I expect zero from any future cdrama tho I am always open to a pleasant surprise. But until then, pretty stills are harmless to look at and zero emotional investment for me.
