Asian drama rankings
This is just a placeholder for now, I’ll elaborate further on each drama when I get a chance as well as spice up the design of this page. For the dramas I’ve blogged about in some detail, links are provided. I consciously try to keep my reviews spoiler-free so read without fear!
The dramas are arranged in order of personal entertainment and rewatchability. I’ve broken down the shows into a few categories to give greater separation in quality between the shows.
If you’re wondering why I have so many shows in the amazing category, well, I watch shows that other people have recommended, and so far I haven’t been let down too much =P
