A Dark but Beautiful Revenge Romance
“My Lethal Man” is an intense show. Intense emotion, intense mysteries, intense chemistry. The acting is phenomenal, and the writing keeps you hooked and guessing. Our two leads absolutely astounded me, both as actors and as characters.
It’s a melodrama; so expect some of those crazy twists. But, surprisingly, it doesn’t fall prey to the ridiculousness of many C-Dramas. And, it despite the angst, the writers deliver an excellent ending with our characters having developed so beautifully and finally finding healing.

Fated Hearts is a turbulent tale of love, ambition, and betrayal set against the backdrop of royal politics.

17. Princess Silver
Chinese Drama - 2019, 58 episodes
A Hidden Gem That Deserves Far More Love
This drama has one of the clearest, neatest storylines I’ve ever seen—nothing feels rushed, and every character gets the attention and development they deserve. The suspense is kept alive till the very last episode; even though most of the story unfolds by episode 5, you're still unsure what will happen by episode 58, which is a huge kudos to the writer.
It follows a gripping revenge arc where past betrayal fuels every choice the characters make.
As the truth unfolds, each step of vengeance brings them closer to justice—but further from who they used to be.- My Review
