Magic realism in asian dramas
Hello,
Here's a list of shows that have elements of magic realism . That is not pure fantasy, shows that have their roots in urban reality, and have a sprinkling of magic or the impossible. Though the line is thin -these shows use magic as a way to offer life lessons and philosophical themes . Although sometimes it may also just be a magical object for kicks and giggles too
