News Drama in China ~some of my favorites
How it all began ~ Drama in China
Maybe I am wrong, but I believe most people got into Asian series, trough Korean dramas/series. It was different for me, my first few series were Chinese, looking back they are really cheesy like most Chinese are, but I guess the younger me didn't mind it.
My first one was Sweet combat, it has the typical rich meets poor story line. The female lead is the rich one in this story, she comes from a wealthy family but pursues boxing while/instead of focusing on her families business. The two of them meet at an all-girls school, but what is the main lead doing there? Honestly, I don't remember, but I believe it was because the headteacher wanted more diversity? It had been a few years since I watched it and I don't have the will and time to rewatch it... looking back from what I remember it wasn't that great, but I am thankful for it brining me into the (mostly) wonderful world of Asian(I know Asia is a continent, and I am reducing it to a few countries, but It's not very nice to each time list up all the countries I have watched series from, sorry) series.
(My second one was the brightest star in the sky, that one was better, I recommend it...I think...don't blame me if you don't like it)

Chinese Drama - 2022, 15 episodes

okay, but for real, first I thought how did they fill 14 episodes with that, but wow. It was stunning and deserves the high rating. Realistic characters, amazing storyline, nice ending and the filming was also great. While watching it, please pay attention to the cameras and the way the police works, thank you!

2. Crush
Chinese Drama - 2021, 24 episodes
So honestly, I gave it a rather bad rating, at least in my rating system. But whenever I think about good Chinese series it is there, so it is here.
Give it a try, but don't hit me, please! The main lead is visually impaired and they both have to go through some up and downs, it was not perfect, but it made me feel.

3. Addicted
Chinese Drama - 2016, 15 episodes
This one is one I could cry hours over. It is not finished. The filming/published was published because it is gay, at least that it what I read. It is definitely not flawless and if you decide to read the novel there will be some situations that are absolute no go! But still I recommend it, along with Reset because first I do like the story and to show the political side/problems in China.
