Gawd, i love First Half of My Life, i am patiently and eagerly waiting for season 2. Still a bit miffed that they changed the FL. But to have Liu Tao Opposite Jin Dong is a dream come true. So that is my only consolation.
And oh, we are same aged so i guess i can relate to how you feel about less teeny booper shows.
- All is well - family cebtered, that centers around 3 siblings
- I will find you a better home
- Story of minglan - this is a historical drama, so i dont think the issue of times is relatable, but still i highly highly recommend this.
- Nirvan in Fire - the only drama i rated 10/10 ever. Romance is but 5% of drama and the 95% is awesomeness personified.
- The sword and the brocade
How about taiwan dramas:
- Yong Jiu grocery store
- The world between us
- Wake up - medical drama with 2 seasons
- Someday or one day - supernatural/fantasy drama
