Underrated dramas

I have laughed, cried, and felt every emotion in between while watching these dramas. Yet, every time I excitedly bring them up, I’m met with blank stares. These are the hidden gems, the underrated masterpieces that deserve so much more love and recognition. All these titles have less than 10k ratings on kisskh, yet I’ve rated them all above 8. So, here’s my list of dramas that stole my heart but somehow stayed under the radar.

Wei Yingluo is one of my favorite characters of all time. Her intellignece, strength, and determination kept me hooked from start to finish. Honestly, I’d love to have Alzheimer’s just to experience this masterpiece again for the first time. It was an emotional rollercoaster in every sense—intense, heartbreaking, and deeply satisfying.
