Quantcast

Below are my favorite Asian dramas and movies. Of course I have seen others that I liked, but these are favorites. I would love if you could recommend me more! I will mention though that I have a really difficult time getting through ridiculous "comedy" portions or long business storylines. I also cannot stand a rude, "spunky" female lead. And it really bothers me when the female lead chooses the obviously worse male lead over the second male lead for no reason. I love a well-told, sad story (as you'll find most of the list to be). I also enjoy older dramas and movies as well, so please recommend if you know of any greats!

Thanks in advance! If you have seen any of the above, please tell me what you thought about it! :)

I've seen every title on your list :) Always is a long time favorite, perhaps because of that strange blend of fluffy romance and raw fighting scenes, also the acting is superb.

If you enjoy older drama, I would recommend Musa The Warrior. There's almost no dialogue in that movie, but the realistic action scenes, the beautiful cinematography meant a turning point for me. Ever since I became hooked to Korean movies and historical k drama.

Thank you so much for the recommendation! It looks good; I will definitely check it out. Also, I cannot believe you have seen all the same films! It seems you have good taste :)
