Hi everyone!
I’m completely new to the C-drama scene and I'd love to dive in. Since I’ve never actually watched one before, I’m looking for something that’s highly accessible but still a complete package: a great plot, a solid cast of characters, beautiful cinematography, good pacing, and a satisfying ending (wether it's sad or good ending idc).
Basically, I’m looking for the perfect gateway show, kind of like what Attack on Titan is for anime. I'm familiar with the names of some of the genres, like Xianxia, Wuxia, cultivation, as well as romance and historical/costume dramas. It’s a massive world and I’m really fascinated by it.
I’m not sure if this helps, but here are some of my all-time favorite works of fiction to give you an idea of my taste: The House in Fata Morgana, One Piece, The Lord of the Rings, Evangelion, AOT, Mr. Robot, and many others.
Since I enjoy a wide variety of fantasy and fiction, I'd love it if you could recommend the absolute best "must-watch" candidate for each major C-drama genre (Wuxia, Xianxia, Romance, Historical, etc.).
Thanks in advance for the help!
