Chinese List of Dramas
These are all in alphabetical order! With tiny(?) reviews/summaries if I happen to actually remember them. Except my "reviews" are more like spazzing about it. XD
Chinese (China, Taiwan and HK)
18, Censoring or Not? (18禁不禁?) - 2007; We all know I am a huge Aben fan (of the BBT variety show). This is his debut acting drama, starring these people from EaStyle, and Xiao Xun (of Blackie Show). This comedy revolves around the school life of these 4 pairs, and basically the differences between the gender and uhh.... difficulties teens usually face at this point in life? (ie. puberty, peer pressure, etc.) It's funny, just watch it. If not for Aben, then at least for the boy that dresses up as a sperm. XD 5/5
A Herbalist Affair (情牽百子櫃 ) - 2002; I think I hated Charmaine in here, but like.. still like her? She was kinda cute, but then she was this annoying spoiled brat so I was like UGHHHH I HATE YOUR CHARACTER SOOO MUCH! She like had this really bad disease or something and had to get fixed. (lol, I love how I say fixed instead of... umm.. cured? healed? anyways,) but then her boyfriend was starting to have a thing for the doctor chick and.. it got confusing. A thing I love about this was the theme song. Godddd the Andy Hui/Flora Chan song is SOOOOO EPIC! <3 much love yo! 3/5
A Step into The Past (尋秦記) - 2001; OMG! Such an epic Louis Koo drama! He's an FBI in modern times and his girlfriend (Sonija) dumps him. He apparently travels into the past (the Warring States Period) of China but he can't go back to the modern times because something went wrong with the device and brought him 3 years earlier. So he's trying to NOT change history so that he can go back. Along the way, his manners and slang is super 21st century, so it's rather hilarious. People are all o_O? when they are with him. This is one of the earlire dramas that Rayray was in. He was super tanned in there. XDD 5/5
Autumn's Concerto (下一站,幸福) - 2010; FREAK. XIAO XIAO BIN IS SO ADORABLE. This drama is sooo cute and yet sooo sad, but omg, I fell in love with Vanness here. He looks mighty fine. I SWEAR. Kid is so much love tooo!! It's actually not bad, the plot I mean. It has the usual drama and problems, but they actually DO live together so you get to see bits of that which is cutes and adorbs. Vanness probably tried really hard, and I think he did rather well. :) 4/5
Because Of You (星光下的童话) - 2010; Honestly, I watched this because it had Megan Lai, Lego Li and Baron in it and they are all awesome so I watched it. I'm honestly a little disappointed with Megan and Baron in here.. I just felt that their acting could've been better.. I know Megan definitely could have done better.. so I blame the screenwriter. lol Lego was actually brilliant in a different way. It's my first time seeing him in such a different character. Kinda liked it tbh, and he got to sing songs!/debut under the name "Fang Zi Hao" Bot too shabby a singer! Megan's a brilliant singer too (see MARS), but ehhh the song didn't really bring out her voice imo. Tanaka Chie did good I think.. as compared to her annoyed character in The Cape No.7, I think she's improved, though I totally still ship her with Ah Ga! 3/5
Black & White - 2009; SO COOL. This really has never been done before in Taiwan. IT's like this big police drama but with so much conspiracy and like a bigger antagonist behind everything kind of thing. It's also extremely scandalous for it's misleading information they bomb at the audience every chapter. I mean, making Vic fall in love with girl, and then telling us that him and girl are actually SIBLINGS, and then thinking back when he ALMOST BONED HER, but they only kissed so *phew*, but then afterwards telling us that HE isn't HER brother, but their other best friend is the brother, whom has a crush on her OMG! And he gets emo! And then AFTERWARDS telling us that it doesn't matter because he isn't related to her but he's actually president? of Taiwan's illegal son or something. GAWD SO MUCH! I also love on the songs.. the OST is very lovely and suitable! 5/5
Brown Sugar Macchiato (黑糖瑪奇朵) - 2007; I cannot believe I finished this. WHY? It didn't even have that part of the ending I wanted. So the only reason why I finally finish this stupid drama is because of all the smoochies in the end. My favourite couple which was YaWei, were supposed to end up together, and apparently, I found clips on youtube that were all, OMG THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO END, with a kissing scene. It was absolutely adorable! If only the majority of these kids could act. :( 2/5
Bump Off Lover (愛殺17)- 2006; Angela stars as being two characters. They're twin sisters. One dies, and the other one which I refer as Angela tries to find out the truth behind her sister's death. And the truth, isn't exactly what she wanted to know because it digs deep into her sister's dark secrets. I am attempting to write an entry about it here (currently uncompleted and locked). 4/5
Chinese Paladin 1&3(仙劍奇俠傳) - 2005/2009; This is based on my favourite RPG of the same Chinese name. This Wuxia drama stars Hu Ge, Crystal Liu, An Yi Xuan and Eddie Peng! Eddie is much love in here!! 5/5 OMG, I actually don't like the sequel as much, but the OST is so much love. I also love the second romance line in here, Wallaoe Hup is hot stuff! Whenever it was his romantic scene with his girl, they will forever play Jing's Preferred Love song, and that was how I began to fall in love with Jing! :D So totally recommend the OST. The drama, well it's not bad, you can watch it!! :D I think I actually like their acting more in the sequel too lol. 5/5
Corner With Love (轉角*遇到愛) - 2007; Barbie stars as a rich, spoilt girl whose family goes bankrupt, so she fleds to Taiwan. Show is a somewhat an artist that doesn't get recognition in Shanghai so makes oyster pancakes for a living, he crashes into Barbies car at a corner when he does some delivery (before she was bankrupt) and that is how they meet. They meet again in Taiwan and things happen. When I say things happen, it's the typical they fall in love but there are obstacles.. and.... yeah. 4/5
Crimson Sabre (碧血劍) - 2000; I don't remember what it's about, but it's one of those dramas taken back in the Wu Xia stuff. or something. I just thought Kwong Wa looked surprisingly hot in here because. dude he's an old guy, and well.. yeah. I liked his strip of gold hair on his wig though. That might be why I thought he was hot. 2/5
D.I.E. (古靈精探) - 2008; detective series starring Roger Kwok and Sonija where Roger uses supernatural powers to help crack cases. It's very amusing! Derek Kwok is in this as a super fan of Bruce Lee's ? 3.5/5
Devil Beside You (惡魔在身邊) - 2005; The drama that shot Rainie to fame! Rainie has a crush on Kingone, but somehow she accidentally gives Mike her love letter. Mike is known to act like a Devil and by chance, Rainie happens to be his step-sister. So now they live under the same roof and they have feelings for each other.. and yeah. 3.5/5
Down With Love (就想賴著妳) - 2010; Jerry and Ella drama, they are so cute in here and this is the first time that I actually like Jerry in something. EVER. He's adorbs, and so is Xiao Xiao Bin!! And I also happen to like on Michael too but this drama pissed me off halfway because I got so mad at Ella and so mad at Michael at being dumb and manipulative and brainless. SO. ANGRY. 3.9/5
Easy Fortune Happy Life (福氣又安康) - 2009; I watch this because I am lame and think that Roy Qiu is hot. He looks like a young Mike He except he's actually older LOL. And apparently he's the one that hurt Rainie a lot IRL D: This drama slightly reminded me of FTLY, but not as cute and hilarious. But it was still stupidly funny. I hate the plot really, and I think it's not written in detailed because it didn't seem like they went through a tonne of hardships to get back together in the end.... Lame. HAHA I'm so mean. 2.8/5
Eternity (千歲情人) - 1993; This doesn't even have a proper link so.. yeah. I FOUND CHINESE WIKI!!! I guess I really DO have to make a proper summary of what I remember. It stars Faye Wong and Alex Fong Chong Sun. Faye is a really weird chick. The story starts about in the olden Chinese era where people can do flying stuff aka the Wu Xia period, and like, her and either 2 people? went to this cave, where this supposedly sacred huge bird laid eggs once in I don't remember how many years. But those eggs were massively huge. It's like... an ostrich egg size! Anyways, if a human drinks those eggs... they'll become immortal. Like, they won't die no matter how much you stab them or like push them off a cliff. They just don't die. So then Faye lives through a kazillion years by herself, and then she somehow encounters Alex and they fall in love, and she tells him that she's immortal because of the egg. He doesn't believe her and she slits her wrist in front of him. And he tries to save her, but he realizes that, as soon as she slit herself, there was already another layer of skin grown! ZOMG! MIRACLE! anyways, something happens in between, and Alex gets super sick from like flu or something.. not sure. So Faye takes care of him, and then they just fall asleep, and the directors focuses on how their arms/wrists are on top of each other. (It somehow transfered her immortality to him lol! but they had noo idea of this!) Anyways, So Faye and Alex decide to hike up to wherever she got those Ostrich immortality eggs so that she can drink it and become a mortal again. But when she got there, this evil dude that crushed on her (since a kazillion years ago) is all "No way in hell are you drinking this, I SHAL L drink it and become mortal with you forevarrrrr!" aka he somehow knew that Faye's immortality was in Alex's body. So then that guy drank the egg, and somehow died from something (fell off a cliff?) and then Alex and Faye are like. oh fuck. thinking that Faye will be immortal forever. And that's how it ends. It ends with Alex riding on a motorcycle looking young and hot and in the background, where he doesn't see her, there is Faye all disgusting with messy white hair and looking like an old witch, looking at him drive away. 3/5
File of Justice 1-5 (壹號皇庭) - 1992,93,94,95,97; Ok this thing is too long to remember. But it was super duper epic. Like seriously? 5 series of the same detective investigating thing? SOOOO LONG. It has like super gross murder cases too. But sooo fascinating <3 And I totally love on Bobby Au Yeung anyways. XD 5/5
Forensic Heroes 1 (法證先鋒) - 2006; See below. Except it doesn't have Kevin and Charmaine in it yet. 5/5
Forensic Heroes 2 (法證先鋒) - 2008; A drama about how the police crack cases with the help of the forensic science department. Starring the same people as the first, with Charmaine and Kevin added into it ? 5/5
Golden Faith (流金歲月) - 2002; OMG this drama is so the bomb. One of the few ones that I actually LIKE Myolie in it. She was so super wicked. She had to act as a girl who suffered from downsyndrome/a little mental disability that kept her in the mind of a 6 year old. She is soooo much love in here <3 Apart from her awesomeness, there was tonnes of dramas in here, and it was probably voted to be one of the best dramas of 2002, just because HK people like the drama. (But that's about all I can tell you because.. it bored me so much that all I remember is Myolie, and that's it!) 3.5/5
Hanazakari no Kimitachi e (花樣少年少女) - 2006; The first manga-adapted version of Hanakimi. Starring Ella, Wu Chun, Jiro and Danson. This is rather very amusing and very cracktastic. 4/5
It Started With A Kiss (惡作劇之吻) - 2005; The Taiwanese version of Itazura na Kiss, starring Joe Cheng and Ariel Lin. (And Jiro Wang). This really was quite frustrating to go through, but there are some particular funny scenes. As well as some cute squishy ones. This was the first time I was Jiro acting, and this was.. before Fahrenheit was formed. I do quite like Jiro acting. 3.5/5
Journey To the West 1&2 (西遊記) - 1996/1998; The EPIC Monkey King series. Dicky Cheung is much love. I hate on the sequel though because Benny takes over as Monkey King. Everyone has to love this. If my memory is correct, Derek Kwok plays the opposite Monkey King. He's the "Dark Monkey King" I think. So he's kind of villain-ish at first, and later is a good boy. XP First: 5/5, Sequel: 3/5
Last One Standing (與敵同行 ) - 2008; I was arguing with myself to see if I should watch this or not, because it just looked super emo. In the end, I gave in to peer pressure, and I'm very glad I did. LOS was amazing. Roger Kwok and Kevin's acting is just so great, the chemistry they have is mindblasting. Roger Kwok makes the most scariest evil person a person can be. His mind is so fucked in here, I thought it very interesting especially since I just started learning in Psychology. If you don't have much patience, you shouldn't watch this. It takes WAY too long for people to find out that Roger is a fucking psycho and bastard, and I bet you your heart will just cringe for poor Kevin. You really just want to punch everyone in the fucking face for being such retards and siding with Roger time after time, that it's just like OMFG WILL YOU GET A FUCKING BRAIN? The only reason I continue was because my bestie already told me that Roger Kwok was the evil bastard and that he will eventually get his downfall (although she didn't tell me the exact ending), so since I wanted to see how this guy suffer, I watched. 5/5 +++++
Legend of Condor Heroes (射雕英雄传) - 2008; OMG, there's been like five billion remakes of this, and the Hu Ge x Ariel Lin one is the most recent, and I love it... because yes, I am biased and love Ariel and Hu Ge. I even came up with a theory about how their love may blossom irl, and this is coming from a big ArJoe fan to begin with!! Hu Ge is many level os amazing imo, when they filmed for this back in 2006/2007 he got into a huge car crash where recovery/surgery (and also plastics) took a year for him to recover. They had to put this on hiatus until he was well again. Poor guy's assisstant/manager died in the crash :( IMO, they have a few interesting points in this version compared to before. Definitely better graphics, because hello technology! I also love on Ariel's Huang Rong because she's so funny in it. The guy playing Yang Kang was magnificent as well because wow he REALLY went between being bad guy vs. good guy here, and it just SEEMED like he'd be stuck as bad guy but then it's like no wait, he's a good guy!! Props to him! But yes, Huriel is adorbs in here... it's so dramatic but they're both such terrific actors and have great chemistry together ♥ I even dig the OST, and need to hunt for it now. 4/5
Life Begins at Forty (花樣中年) - 2003; Eh, I remember watching this with my sister. Don't remember much other than... Charmaine is like a really successful girl and I totally dig her style in there. And then it's kind of like romance stuff between her and these other girls with these 3 somewhat middle-aged dudes, which thus gives the name Life begins at "40". I think Charmaine was like, his boss or something. XD 3/5
Lofty Waters Verdant Bow (雲海玉弓緣) - 2002; Rayray has been in too many dramas, I get all his Wuxia dramas mixed up. This one doesn't particularly have a striking story in my memory.... but Derek Kwok was in this, I bet you anything he was a supervillain. 2/5
Love Contract (愛情合約) - 2004; Now that I think of it, this had a fairly lame plot. But this was one of the first Taiwanese dramas I watched after Meteor Garden. Starring Mike and Ariel. This really was a really odd drama. But I thought Ariel did quite well in this. 3.5/5
Love is Beautiful (無頭東宮) - 2002; Basically, Face Off the movie but female version taken in the old China times. I thought that this was completely wtf-material but I totally admire both actresses for doing such awesome jobs. More so for Mariane than Anne because I'd say Mariane's role was a bit harder to play through than Anne's. And besides, I'd say Anne's acting wasn't that awesome back then although I'd agree she's improved a great deal. Anyways, this was highly dramatic, and omg! 3.5/5
Love Storm (狂愛龍捲風) - 2003; I told y'all I was doing a Vivian Hsu and also a Vic Zhou drama marathon!! I never knew this drama existed. Now I'm just trying to think if I already did a lame review on it before. I probably mention about it for a short time when I finished it, so it's probably up in the tag section. But yeah, Vivian was so cute in here! A little annoying, but I think she's cute as well. 3.9/5
Love Strategy (戀爱兵法) - 2008; This is like the Chinese x Korean drama starring Vivian Hsu and KIM JEONG HOON. It had horrible dubs though. Almost made me cry and give up, but the love of Vivian Hsu and John-hoon brought me toward the drama. The cartoons they have in here are actually pretty essential. Like I seriously learned some "strategies" or some old chinese quote/phrases from this drama. Which is fun on my part, because I've forgotten a heck a lot of Chinese the past few years! 3.5/5
Mars (戰神) - 2004; So I watched this for Vic and Barbie, because I really miss seeing the couple together. (Please get back together... please?) Anyways, this drama is super emo. I didn't realize it was so depressing. And just when I thought things can't possibly get worse, like seriously, you continue to learn about everyone and their dark secrets/stories. SOOO EMO. Anyways, I read a lot of review on it and the ones I read didn't like it so much. A lot of people tend to think this is a boring drama. I admit it has a lot of silent scenes in it, but that's just to create the tense mood they all have. I'd give props to the actors for doing such a good job!! I personally LOVE the OST. Well I don't really like the ending theme, which is Vic and Barbie's duet, because I personally don't believe that they sing very well. But it's a nice slow ballad. However, I totally LOVE on Alan Kuo's "Ling". It happens to be one of my favourite Alan K songs, and I had NO IDEA that it was the opening theme song for Mars!! There are a few other nice inserts in there, and one of them is a taiwanese cover of Hirai Ken's "Hitomi wo Tojite". And come on people. EVERYONE LOVES ON THAT SONG OK? 8D The other inserts are good, like RaRa's song is nice, and Lian Yi Zhen's is a very nice ballad again. Oh and Megan Lai (aka Qing Mei in the drama) sings as well. She TOTALLY reminds me of the Japanese actress Nakamura Aimi (aka Aizawa Miyabi from GTO)... no? 5/5
Meteor Garden (流星花園) - 2001; The first version of the manga-based Hanadan. I generally don't like this version. Biased as I am, I don't have much love for F4 (the band). 1/5
Mind Reading Detective (讀心神探) - 2010; Watched this during my psych mood. So much fun this is!! Not exactly epic but it's pretty cool since Bowie uses the psych stuff he learned from this course he took in USA to help solve crimes. It's pretty basic stuff that you can learn, like body language, coping techniques etc. etc. :) fun stuff!! And yeah, Bosco and Aimee are paired up again. I am starting to ship them just because I never liked Myolie. ROFL. Aimee's pretty cute! :) 4/5
Momo Love (桃花小妹) - 2009; This is my first time watching Cyndi Wang act.. and I can't believe she's supposed to be younger than all the characters in there. But yeah, I feel like Jing Wong is more like the main character since he's pretty much the narrator and all. He's surprisingly really funny in here and I would have never guessed that a noob would be so great. His singing voice is definitely very unique. 3/5
My Love Bread (我的愛情麵包) - 2008; Yet another Joriel coupling drama!! I think that Ariel is looking beautiful in here... didn't really like the drama much though.. nothing refreshing and epic.. and I especially dislike the ending because... they didn't even do anything =_=; 2.9/5
My Lucky Star (放羊的星星) - 2007; Starring Jimmy Lin and Yoo Ha-na. Jimmy is from a super rich family that own Eshine, a jewelry empire. His hobby is F1 racing (which is still true in real life) so that's what he does for a living. Racing! (He actually does the racing scenes himself too, they had to cover a lot of insurance for that, especially when the original female actress died from a car accident in early '07). Jimmy meets Ha-na, a girl that dreams of becoming a famous jewelry designer, but she happens to lie a lot. Anyways, they fall in love, but tragic things happen, but in the end they'll fall in love. Hope that wasn't tooooooo spoiler-ish for you, but what do you expect? It usually ends this way anyways. 5/5
Poor Prince Taro (貧窮貴公子) - 2001; Based on the manga Yamadataro Monogatari, ZaiZai stars as a very smart, capable, and good looking boy at a prestigious school. But he happens to be extremely poor. And.. yeah. You all know the manga. :P I liked this version more than the Japanese. 3.5/5
P.S. Man (偷心大聖P.S. 男) - 2010; I watched this because I'm shallow and Sonia, Bianca, Blue are all hot, and so is James. I thought Sonia and Blue had really good chemistry in the beginning, so it's all very firey. I loved it loads, until James came along and I'm like OMG CHENG EN! And I jumped the bandwagon to Cheng En x Xiao Chian vs the original OTP. :( Boo because we all know main girl never goes with second guy. Tbh, Cheng En is so amazingly sweet. But oh well.. somewhere along ep 15 ish, all the plot gets dull, so everything kind of went downhill a bit. Don't like the ending... so I will just cherish the first bit of this drama. haha 3.7/5
Return of the Cuckoo (澳門街/十月初五的月光) - 2000; I don't even want to call this Return of the Cuckoo, I'd rather call it Macau Street... =\ But I usually call this "The drama with Julian Cheung where he is mute and lives in Macau", because that is exactly what this drama is about. Charmaine is in this, and seriously why do people not like her in general? I really like her a lot! So yeah.. lots of romance and stuff. I loved on Julian though, he's so adorable. And I also love his theme song. I miss him as a singer :( 3.5/5
Roseate-Love (紫玫瑰) - 2009; Seeeee blog here~! I am madly in love with the songs in here... especially teh rock songs. I mean I like you Rachel, but I think you're more of a ballad/soulful singer, not too rock-ish ya? I loved Jane's song in here..... SO ADDICTIVE. 2.9/5
Shades of Truth (水滸無間道) - 2004; I don't know why I watched this police drama. It's a rather lame story and exactly what the Chinese title means. The 水滸 version of 無間道, taken into the modern days. Julian and Gigi Lai together were cute though. And Derek Kwok was super hot as a supervillain! 2.5/5
Story of Time (光陰的故) - 2008; I originally watched this for Tender, but this family genred Taiwanese drama totally captured my heart. It's made of awesome. Not only is it set in the late 60's - 70's, the characters all have very cute sides to them and they all have their own problems to resolve. I love thier input of everything. The oldie song is catchy, the random input of hakka words confuse me but make me want to learn it even more. Check my tags for more info!! 5/5+++
Success Story of Treasure Island's Young Girl (寶島少女成功記) - 2006; Ok, I watched this for Van Fan because I think he's pretty to look at, but his acting majorly sucks in here. However, I did get introduced to Tammy Chen because of this, and am glad to know about her, because I adore her in Story of Time. Girl is cute, and can act!! This drama is kind of twisted plots altogether, but yeah.. it's long. 3/5
Summer x Summer (熱情仲夏) - 2007; I never really watched EVERY single episode of this. It bored me a bit after awhile, and I ended up watching the last 4 episodes for Danson. Joe stars as a brat that is a famous model. He's the sister of Wu Xiong's best friend and things just happen. LOL 2.8/5
Survivor's Law (律政新人王) - 2003; I watched the first series, but not it's sequel. Law drama starring Rayray, Myolie, Sammul and Bernice Liu. Many confusing things happen on their way to being a lawyer. Sammul kinda backstabs them and completely goes against his original principles and all his friends "pay c" him. The theme song was one of my more favourite Rayray songs. (I really don't like his debut album that much.. the songs just weren't as super as his pre-debut stuff.) 3/5
The Legendary Four Aces (金裝四大才子) - 2000; Oh wow, I totally forgot this even existed. It was like a more comedic/somewhat "modern-effected" version at the time of the legendary four aces story. I just remember this was super amusing. The only thing I remember is that Esther Kwan was soooooo old compared to Nick! 3.5/5
The Magicians of Love (愛情魔髮師) - 2006; This was the first 183 Club drama I ever watched. It's because my SIL has a huge thing for Ming Dao. (Doesn't Ethan look similar to him? XD) This drama is revolved around the romance and drama that happens at Neo-something-IMAGE, the hair salon that those 183 boys own. And.. things happen. It's rather exciting, and I totally had the hots for Sam Wang. 4/5
The Monkey King:Quest for the Sutra (齊天大聖孫悟空) - 2002; The VERY DIFFERENT version of the Monkey King story. Still starring Dicky but along many huge HK stars as well as Taiwanese actors. I thought this was rather interesting and highly amusing, despite my disliking of Twins' acting.... But hey, lucky for Gillian, she gets to fall in love with Na Ja, aka Jimmy Lin ? This was my first time seeing him act and this is when I started to fangirl him. You get a lot of epic quotes from this version! To this day, my friend Nhon probably still knows those random quotes off by heart and will probably blab it out when you least expect! 5/5
The Myth (神话) - 2010; This is actually on hd tudou WHILE it was airing.... they up like 3 episodes a day. I was so hooked because it was HD and because it was Hu Ge and because there were 3 episodes in a day. lol. This is the Chinese drama version of film of the same title which starred Jackie Chan. Hu Ge goes back in time and has to live like a kazillion years to wait for the modern world and.. yeah it's... pretty much like A Step Into The Past, but this has got more action and a lot more effects which are completely wicked. 4/5
The Outsiders (鬥魚) - 2004; Like.. some epic Ady/Dylan drama. It's so old school but had like so much drama in it. Everything possible like... deliquent falls in love with a kind girl who knows how to play piano from a well off background. And her parents dislike deliquent, and then Ady and Dylan elope together. However, after high school grad, Dylan joins the mafia. Lots of mafia wars there, and Ady gets raped! and man. lots of things happen. Wait to see what happens in the end!! 3.9/5
The Vampire Returns (大頭綠衣鬥殭屍) - 1993; This has got to be one of THE MOST EPIC LONG dramas I have seen in my life. LOOK AT THAT DATE!!! 1993~! I'm surprised I'm like the only one who remembers it, or at least parts of it. I just remember that Sammi Cheng is in here, and she plays to roles, one is this kinda tomboyish girl that crushes on some dude, and the other is her dead twin sister, whom we can see when we zoom into her little room which is below her grave. (The guy that alive!Sammi crushes on crushes on dead!Sammi), it's kind of confusing. But it does have Vampires in it. The... hopping chinese kinds. Those vampires are really scary. It's probably because of dramas like this that make me scared of Chinese Vampires. Anyways, this is CHOU EPIC YO! I mean, even DRAMAWIKI doesn't have a proper page for it. All it has is.. the name of the drama, and the cast. No picture of sypnosis. :( Anyways, in the end, alive!Sammi somehow sacrifices herself, and then all the people wait for her to reincarnate herself, which is a long time, and when she is born, everyone is all OMO!!!! You've reincarnated!!! when in truth, she reincarnated into the baby bird just outside the birth room of this couple. Sooo yeah. Everyone is old by then though, including the guy that crushes on Sammi. 4/5
The W Files (衛斯理) - 2003; based on the novel series, it's like an adventure drama starring Gallen Lo and Yoyo Mung where they crack many supernatural cases. It's really really cool, and has a lot of action in it. 4/5
The White Flame (紅衣手記) - 2002; This was the drama that first made me want to become a nurse when I was in junior high. This was like the first time I spoke out and said I want to be such and such when I grow up. At least as far as I remember~ Again, I totally praise Charmaine in here. I think she's such an awesome actress. And I think she's absolutely lovely and cute. I loved on her hairdo in this drama and totally wanted to perm my hair and cut it short BECAUSE OF HER! Actually I still dooo want to perm my hair, but she's no longer still the only reason for that. XD This drama was kinda like about nurses or how they train to become nurses. It's pretty interesting if you like your somewhat medical dramas. Think of it as a better N's Aoi in HK version. 4/5
White Robes of Love (白袍之戀) - 2006; This was basically a dramathon for Michael Zhang.... and sort of Ady An/Dylan Kuo. I wrote a sort of entry on it. 4/5
Triumph in the Skies (衝上雲宵) - 2003; a drama focusing on the day to day operations of the airport, from pilot, to stewardess, to those people in training, to basically any staff at the airport, as well as their personal lives. Starring Francis Ng, Flora Chan, Joe Ma, Myolie, Bosco, Sammul, Michelle Yip, and Ron Ng. I hated Myolie in here, she was so annoying/irritating. Actually, she never really made it high on my TVB actress list. 5/5
Vigilante Force (智勇新警界) - 2003; Police drama starring Bowie, Kenix, Joe Ma, and Tavia. Uhh... something about Kenneth saving Kenix's life but having a bullet into his head and it's still in there but hasn't done any damage to him YET. He movies into this rural area in HK and... yeah. I think Tavia was some pregnant chick in here and Bowie takes care of her blah blah blah. 1/5
Wayward Kenting (我在墾丁*天氣晴) - 2008; Human drama that revolves around the lives of Eddie, Janine Chang, and Ethan where they all meet in Kenting. Eddie and Ethan somehow meet and they decide to open up a surfer's shop near the beach... and yeah. Kenting is a really pretty place. At least the majority of it is. 3/5
When Rules Turn Loose (識法代言人) - 2005; Ok, a drama that I totally watch because of Sammul. <3 Uhhhh... yeah it just sounded like Survivor's Law to me but minus Rayray and Bernice. Except I totally dig Survivor's Law more because it had some humour in it. The humour in here is minor and well it's just boring in general. I kind of think that Lisa Wang is a little overrated so I tend to be biased when I watch a drama with her in it... =\ 2/5
Chinese (China, Taiwan and HK)
18, Censoring or Not? (18禁不禁?) - 2007; We all know I am a huge Aben fan (of the BBT variety show). This is his debut acting drama, starring these people from EaStyle, and Xiao Xun (of Blackie Show). This comedy revolves around the school life of these 4 pairs, and basically the differences between the gender and uhh.... difficulties teens usually face at this point in life? (ie. puberty, peer pressure, etc.) It's funny, just watch it. If not for Aben, then at least for the boy that dresses up as a sperm. XD 5/5
A Herbalist Affair (情牽百子櫃 ) - 2002; I think I hated Charmaine in here, but like.. still like her? She was kinda cute, but then she was this annoying spoiled brat so I was like UGHHHH I HATE YOUR CHARACTER SOOO MUCH! She like had this really bad disease or something and had to get fixed. (lol, I love how I say fixed instead of... umm.. cured? healed? anyways,) but then her boyfriend was starting to have a thing for the doctor chick and.. it got confusing. A thing I love about this was the theme song. Godddd the Andy Hui/Flora Chan song is SOOOOO EPIC! <3 much love yo! 3/5
A Step into The Past (尋秦記) - 2001; OMG! Such an epic Louis Koo drama! He's an FBI in modern times and his girlfriend (Sonija) dumps him. He apparently travels into the past (the Warring States Period) of China but he can't go back to the modern times because something went wrong with the device and brought him 3 years earlier. So he's trying to NOT change history so that he can go back. Along the way, his manners and slang is super 21st century, so it's rather hilarious. People are all o_O? when they are with him. This is one of the earlire dramas that Rayray was in. He was super tanned in there. XDD 5/5
Autumn's Concerto (下一站,幸福) - 2010; FREAK. XIAO XIAO BIN IS SO ADORABLE. This drama is sooo cute and yet sooo sad, but omg, I fell in love with Vanness here. He looks mighty fine. I SWEAR. Kid is so much love tooo!! It's actually not bad, the plot I mean. It has the usual drama and problems, but they actually DO live together so you get to see bits of that which is cutes and adorbs. Vanness probably tried really hard, and I think he did rather well. :) 4/5
Because Of You (星光下的童话) - 2010; Honestly, I watched this because it had Megan Lai, Lego Li and Baron in it and they are all awesome so I watched it. I'm honestly a little disappointed with Megan and Baron in here.. I just felt that their acting could've been better.. I know Megan definitely could have done better.. so I blame the screenwriter. lol Lego was actually brilliant in a different way. It's my first time seeing him in such a different character. Kinda liked it tbh, and he got to sing songs!/debut under the name "Fang Zi Hao" Bot too shabby a singer! Megan's a brilliant singer too (see MARS), but ehhh the song didn't really bring out her voice imo. Tanaka Chie did good I think.. as compared to her annoyed character in The Cape No.7, I think she's improved, though I totally still ship her with Ah Ga! 3/5
Black & White - 2009; SO COOL. This really has never been done before in Taiwan. IT's like this big police drama but with so much conspiracy and like a bigger antagonist behind everything kind of thing. It's also extremely scandalous for it's misleading information they bomb at the audience every chapter. I mean, making Vic fall in love with girl, and then telling us that him and girl are actually SIBLINGS, and then thinking back when he ALMOST BONED HER, but they only kissed so *phew*, but then afterwards telling us that HE isn't HER brother, but their other best friend is the brother, whom has a crush on her OMG! And he gets emo! And then AFTERWARDS telling us that it doesn't matter because he isn't related to her but he's actually president? of Taiwan's illegal son or something. GAWD SO MUCH! I also love on the songs.. the OST is very lovely and suitable! 5/5
Brown Sugar Macchiato (黑糖瑪奇朵) - 2007; I cannot believe I finished this. WHY? It didn't even have that part of the ending I wanted. So the only reason why I finally finish this stupid drama is because of all the smoochies in the end. My favourite couple which was YaWei, were supposed to end up together, and apparently, I found clips on youtube that were all, OMG THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO END, with a kissing scene. It was absolutely adorable! If only the majority of these kids could act. :( 2/5
Bump Off Lover (愛殺17)- 2006; Angela stars as being two characters. They're twin sisters. One dies, and the other one which I refer as Angela tries to find out the truth behind her sister's death. And the truth, isn't exactly what she wanted to know because it digs deep into her sister's dark secrets. I am attempting to write an entry about it here (currently uncompleted and locked). 4/5
Chinese Paladin 1&3(仙劍奇俠傳) - 2005/2009; This is based on my favourite RPG of the same Chinese name. This Wuxia drama stars Hu Ge, Crystal Liu, An Yi Xuan and Eddie Peng! Eddie is much love in here!! 5/5 OMG, I actually don't like the sequel as much, but the OST is so much love. I also love the second romance line in here, Wallaoe Hup is hot stuff! Whenever it was his romantic scene with his girl, they will forever play Jing's Preferred Love song, and that was how I began to fall in love with Jing! :D So totally recommend the OST. The drama, well it's not bad, you can watch it!! :D I think I actually like their acting more in the sequel too lol. 5/5
Corner With Love (轉角*遇到愛) - 2007; Barbie stars as a rich, spoilt girl whose family goes bankrupt, so she fleds to Taiwan. Show is a somewhat an artist that doesn't get recognition in Shanghai so makes oyster pancakes for a living, he crashes into Barbies car at a corner when he does some delivery (before she was bankrupt) and that is how they meet. They meet again in Taiwan and things happen. When I say things happen, it's the typical they fall in love but there are obstacles.. and.... yeah. 4/5
Crimson Sabre (碧血劍) - 2000; I don't remember what it's about, but it's one of those dramas taken back in the Wu Xia stuff. or something. I just thought Kwong Wa looked surprisingly hot in here because. dude he's an old guy, and well.. yeah. I liked his strip of gold hair on his wig though. That might be why I thought he was hot. 2/5
D.I.E. (古靈精探) - 2008; detective series starring Roger Kwok and Sonija where Roger uses supernatural powers to help crack cases. It's very amusing! Derek Kwok is in this as a super fan of Bruce Lee's ? 3.5/5
Devil Beside You (惡魔在身邊) - 2005; The drama that shot Rainie to fame! Rainie has a crush on Kingone, but somehow she accidentally gives Mike her love letter. Mike is known to act like a Devil and by chance, Rainie happens to be his step-sister. So now they live under the same roof and they have feelings for each other.. and yeah. 3.5/5
Down With Love (就想賴著妳) - 2010; Jerry and Ella drama, they are so cute in here and this is the first time that I actually like Jerry in something. EVER. He's adorbs, and so is Xiao Xiao Bin!! And I also happen to like on Michael too but this drama pissed me off halfway because I got so mad at Ella and so mad at Michael at being dumb and manipulative and brainless. SO. ANGRY. 3.9/5
Easy Fortune Happy Life (福氣又安康) - 2009; I watch this because I am lame and think that Roy Qiu is hot. He looks like a young Mike He except he's actually older LOL. And apparently he's the one that hurt Rainie a lot IRL D: This drama slightly reminded me of FTLY, but not as cute and hilarious. But it was still stupidly funny. I hate the plot really, and I think it's not written in detailed because it didn't seem like they went through a tonne of hardships to get back together in the end.... Lame. HAHA I'm so mean. 2.8/5
Eternity (千歲情人) - 1993; This doesn't even have a proper link so.. yeah. I FOUND CHINESE WIKI!!! I guess I really DO have to make a proper summary of what I remember. It stars Faye Wong and Alex Fong Chong Sun. Faye is a really weird chick. The story starts about in the olden Chinese era where people can do flying stuff aka the Wu Xia period, and like, her and either 2 people? went to this cave, where this supposedly sacred huge bird laid eggs once in I don't remember how many years. But those eggs were massively huge. It's like... an ostrich egg size! Anyways, if a human drinks those eggs... they'll become immortal. Like, they won't die no matter how much you stab them or like push them off a cliff. They just don't die. So then Faye lives through a kazillion years by herself, and then she somehow encounters Alex and they fall in love, and she tells him that she's immortal because of the egg. He doesn't believe her and she slits her wrist in front of him. And he tries to save her, but he realizes that, as soon as she slit herself, there was already another layer of skin grown! ZOMG! MIRACLE! anyways, something happens in between, and Alex gets super sick from like flu or something.. not sure. So Faye takes care of him, and then they just fall asleep, and the directors focuses on how their arms/wrists are on top of each other. (It somehow transfered her immortality to him lol! but they had noo idea of this!) Anyways, So Faye and Alex decide to hike up to wherever she got those Ostrich immortality eggs so that she can drink it and become a mortal again. But when she got there, this evil dude that crushed on her (since a kazillion years ago) is all "No way in hell are you drinking this, I SHAL L drink it and become mortal with you forevarrrrr!" aka he somehow knew that Faye's immortality was in Alex's body. So then that guy drank the egg, and somehow died from something (fell off a cliff?) and then Alex and Faye are like. oh fuck. thinking that Faye will be immortal forever. And that's how it ends. It ends with Alex riding on a motorcycle looking young and hot and in the background, where he doesn't see her, there is Faye all disgusting with messy white hair and looking like an old witch, looking at him drive away. 3/5
File of Justice 1-5 (壹號皇庭) - 1992,93,94,95,97; Ok this thing is too long to remember. But it was super duper epic. Like seriously? 5 series of the same detective investigating thing? SOOOO LONG. It has like super gross murder cases too. But sooo fascinating <3 And I totally love on Bobby Au Yeung anyways. XD 5/5
Forensic Heroes 1 (法證先鋒) - 2006; See below. Except it doesn't have Kevin and Charmaine in it yet. 5/5
Forensic Heroes 2 (法證先鋒) - 2008; A drama about how the police crack cases with the help of the forensic science department. Starring the same people as the first, with Charmaine and Kevin added into it ? 5/5
Golden Faith (流金歲月) - 2002; OMG this drama is so the bomb. One of the few ones that I actually LIKE Myolie in it. She was so super wicked. She had to act as a girl who suffered from downsyndrome/a little mental disability that kept her in the mind of a 6 year old. She is soooo much love in here <3 Apart from her awesomeness, there was tonnes of dramas in here, and it was probably voted to be one of the best dramas of 2002, just because HK people like the drama. (But that's about all I can tell you because.. it bored me so much that all I remember is Myolie, and that's it!) 3.5/5
Hanazakari no Kimitachi e (花樣少年少女) - 2006; The first manga-adapted version of Hanakimi. Starring Ella, Wu Chun, Jiro and Danson. This is rather very amusing and very cracktastic. 4/5
It Started With A Kiss (惡作劇之吻) - 2005; The Taiwanese version of Itazura na Kiss, starring Joe Cheng and Ariel Lin. (And Jiro Wang). This really was quite frustrating to go through, but there are some particular funny scenes. As well as some cute squishy ones. This was the first time I was Jiro acting, and this was.. before Fahrenheit was formed. I do quite like Jiro acting. 3.5/5
Journey To the West 1&2 (西遊記) - 1996/1998; The EPIC Monkey King series. Dicky Cheung is much love. I hate on the sequel though because Benny takes over as Monkey King. Everyone has to love this. If my memory is correct, Derek Kwok plays the opposite Monkey King. He's the "Dark Monkey King" I think. So he's kind of villain-ish at first, and later is a good boy. XP First: 5/5, Sequel: 3/5
Last One Standing (與敵同行 ) - 2008; I was arguing with myself to see if I should watch this or not, because it just looked super emo. In the end, I gave in to peer pressure, and I'm very glad I did. LOS was amazing. Roger Kwok and Kevin's acting is just so great, the chemistry they have is mindblasting. Roger Kwok makes the most scariest evil person a person can be. His mind is so fucked in here, I thought it very interesting especially since I just started learning in Psychology. If you don't have much patience, you shouldn't watch this. It takes WAY too long for people to find out that Roger is a fucking psycho and bastard, and I bet you your heart will just cringe for poor Kevin. You really just want to punch everyone in the fucking face for being such retards and siding with Roger time after time, that it's just like OMFG WILL YOU GET A FUCKING BRAIN? The only reason I continue was because my bestie already told me that Roger Kwok was the evil bastard and that he will eventually get his downfall (although she didn't tell me the exact ending), so since I wanted to see how this guy suffer, I watched. 5/5 +++++
Legend of Condor Heroes (射雕英雄传) - 2008; OMG, there's been like five billion remakes of this, and the Hu Ge x Ariel Lin one is the most recent, and I love it... because yes, I am biased and love Ariel and Hu Ge. I even came up with a theory about how their love may blossom irl, and this is coming from a big ArJoe fan to begin with!! Hu Ge is many level os amazing imo, when they filmed for this back in 2006/2007 he got into a huge car crash where recovery/surgery (and also plastics) took a year for him to recover. They had to put this on hiatus until he was well again. Poor guy's assisstant/manager died in the crash :( IMO, they have a few interesting points in this version compared to before. Definitely better graphics, because hello technology! I also love on Ariel's Huang Rong because she's so funny in it. The guy playing Yang Kang was magnificent as well because wow he REALLY went between being bad guy vs. good guy here, and it just SEEMED like he'd be stuck as bad guy but then it's like no wait, he's a good guy!! Props to him! But yes, Huriel is adorbs in here... it's so dramatic but they're both such terrific actors and have great chemistry together ♥ I even dig the OST, and need to hunt for it now. 4/5
Life Begins at Forty (花樣中年) - 2003; Eh, I remember watching this with my sister. Don't remember much other than... Charmaine is like a really successful girl and I totally dig her style in there. And then it's kind of like romance stuff between her and these other girls with these 3 somewhat middle-aged dudes, which thus gives the name Life begins at "40". I think Charmaine was like, his boss or something. XD 3/5
Lofty Waters Verdant Bow (雲海玉弓緣) - 2002; Rayray has been in too many dramas, I get all his Wuxia dramas mixed up. This one doesn't particularly have a striking story in my memory.... but Derek Kwok was in this, I bet you anything he was a supervillain. 2/5
Love Contract (愛情合約) - 2004; Now that I think of it, this had a fairly lame plot. But this was one of the first Taiwanese dramas I watched after Meteor Garden. Starring Mike and Ariel. This really was a really odd drama. But I thought Ariel did quite well in this. 3.5/5
Love is Beautiful (無頭東宮) - 2002; Basically, Face Off the movie but female version taken in the old China times. I thought that this was completely wtf-material but I totally admire both actresses for doing such awesome jobs. More so for Mariane than Anne because I'd say Mariane's role was a bit harder to play through than Anne's. And besides, I'd say Anne's acting wasn't that awesome back then although I'd agree she's improved a great deal. Anyways, this was highly dramatic, and omg! 3.5/5
Love Storm (狂愛龍捲風) - 2003; I told y'all I was doing a Vivian Hsu and also a Vic Zhou drama marathon!! I never knew this drama existed. Now I'm just trying to think if I already did a lame review on it before. I probably mention about it for a short time when I finished it, so it's probably up in the tag section. But yeah, Vivian was so cute in here! A little annoying, but I think she's cute as well. 3.9/5
Love Strategy (戀爱兵法) - 2008; This is like the Chinese x Korean drama starring Vivian Hsu and KIM JEONG HOON. It had horrible dubs though. Almost made me cry and give up, but the love of Vivian Hsu and John-hoon brought me toward the drama. The cartoons they have in here are actually pretty essential. Like I seriously learned some "strategies" or some old chinese quote/phrases from this drama. Which is fun on my part, because I've forgotten a heck a lot of Chinese the past few years! 3.5/5
Mars (戰神) - 2004; So I watched this for Vic and Barbie, because I really miss seeing the couple together. (Please get back together... please?) Anyways, this drama is super emo. I didn't realize it was so depressing. And just when I thought things can't possibly get worse, like seriously, you continue to learn about everyone and their dark secrets/stories. SOOO EMO. Anyways, I read a lot of review on it and the ones I read didn't like it so much. A lot of people tend to think this is a boring drama. I admit it has a lot of silent scenes in it, but that's just to create the tense mood they all have. I'd give props to the actors for doing such a good job!! I personally LOVE the OST. Well I don't really like the ending theme, which is Vic and Barbie's duet, because I personally don't believe that they sing very well. But it's a nice slow ballad. However, I totally LOVE on Alan Kuo's "Ling". It happens to be one of my favourite Alan K songs, and I had NO IDEA that it was the opening theme song for Mars!! There are a few other nice inserts in there, and one of them is a taiwanese cover of Hirai Ken's "Hitomi wo Tojite". And come on people. EVERYONE LOVES ON THAT SONG OK? 8D The other inserts are good, like RaRa's song is nice, and Lian Yi Zhen's is a very nice ballad again. Oh and Megan Lai (aka Qing Mei in the drama) sings as well. She TOTALLY reminds me of the Japanese actress Nakamura Aimi (aka Aizawa Miyabi from GTO)... no? 5/5
Meteor Garden (流星花園) - 2001; The first version of the manga-based Hanadan. I generally don't like this version. Biased as I am, I don't have much love for F4 (the band). 1/5
Mind Reading Detective (讀心神探) - 2010; Watched this during my psych mood. So much fun this is!! Not exactly epic but it's pretty cool since Bowie uses the psych stuff he learned from this course he took in USA to help solve crimes. It's pretty basic stuff that you can learn, like body language, coping techniques etc. etc. :) fun stuff!! And yeah, Bosco and Aimee are paired up again. I am starting to ship them just because I never liked Myolie. ROFL. Aimee's pretty cute! :) 4/5
Momo Love (桃花小妹) - 2009; This is my first time watching Cyndi Wang act.. and I can't believe she's supposed to be younger than all the characters in there. But yeah, I feel like Jing Wong is more like the main character since he's pretty much the narrator and all. He's surprisingly really funny in here and I would have never guessed that a noob would be so great. His singing voice is definitely very unique. 3/5
My Love Bread (我的愛情麵包) - 2008; Yet another Joriel coupling drama!! I think that Ariel is looking beautiful in here... didn't really like the drama much though.. nothing refreshing and epic.. and I especially dislike the ending because... they didn't even do anything =_=; 2.9/5
My Lucky Star (放羊的星星) - 2007; Starring Jimmy Lin and Yoo Ha-na. Jimmy is from a super rich family that own Eshine, a jewelry empire. His hobby is F1 racing (which is still true in real life) so that's what he does for a living. Racing! (He actually does the racing scenes himself too, they had to cover a lot of insurance for that, especially when the original female actress died from a car accident in early '07). Jimmy meets Ha-na, a girl that dreams of becoming a famous jewelry designer, but she happens to lie a lot. Anyways, they fall in love, but tragic things happen, but in the end they'll fall in love. Hope that wasn't tooooooo spoiler-ish for you, but what do you expect? It usually ends this way anyways. 5/5
Poor Prince Taro (貧窮貴公子) - 2001; Based on the manga Yamadataro Monogatari, ZaiZai stars as a very smart, capable, and good looking boy at a prestigious school. But he happens to be extremely poor. And.. yeah. You all know the manga. :P I liked this version more than the Japanese. 3.5/5
P.S. Man (偷心大聖P.S. 男) - 2010; I watched this because I'm shallow and Sonia, Bianca, Blue are all hot, and so is James. I thought Sonia and Blue had really good chemistry in the beginning, so it's all very firey. I loved it loads, until James came along and I'm like OMG CHENG EN! And I jumped the bandwagon to Cheng En x Xiao Chian vs the original OTP. :( Boo because we all know main girl never goes with second guy. Tbh, Cheng En is so amazingly sweet. But oh well.. somewhere along ep 15 ish, all the plot gets dull, so everything kind of went downhill a bit. Don't like the ending... so I will just cherish the first bit of this drama. haha 3.7/5
Return of the Cuckoo (澳門街/十月初五的月光) - 2000; I don't even want to call this Return of the Cuckoo, I'd rather call it Macau Street... =\ But I usually call this "The drama with Julian Cheung where he is mute and lives in Macau", because that is exactly what this drama is about. Charmaine is in this, and seriously why do people not like her in general? I really like her a lot! So yeah.. lots of romance and stuff. I loved on Julian though, he's so adorable. And I also love his theme song. I miss him as a singer :( 3.5/5
Roseate-Love (紫玫瑰) - 2009; Seeeee blog here~! I am madly in love with the songs in here... especially teh rock songs. I mean I like you Rachel, but I think you're more of a ballad/soulful singer, not too rock-ish ya? I loved Jane's song in here..... SO ADDICTIVE. 2.9/5
Shades of Truth (水滸無間道) - 2004; I don't know why I watched this police drama. It's a rather lame story and exactly what the Chinese title means. The 水滸 version of 無間道, taken into the modern days. Julian and Gigi Lai together were cute though. And Derek Kwok was super hot as a supervillain! 2.5/5
Story of Time (光陰的故) - 2008; I originally watched this for Tender, but this family genred Taiwanese drama totally captured my heart. It's made of awesome. Not only is it set in the late 60's - 70's, the characters all have very cute sides to them and they all have their own problems to resolve. I love thier input of everything. The oldie song is catchy, the random input of hakka words confuse me but make me want to learn it even more. Check my tags for more info!! 5/5+++
Success Story of Treasure Island's Young Girl (寶島少女成功記) - 2006; Ok, I watched this for Van Fan because I think he's pretty to look at, but his acting majorly sucks in here. However, I did get introduced to Tammy Chen because of this, and am glad to know about her, because I adore her in Story of Time. Girl is cute, and can act!! This drama is kind of twisted plots altogether, but yeah.. it's long. 3/5
Summer x Summer (熱情仲夏) - 2007; I never really watched EVERY single episode of this. It bored me a bit after awhile, and I ended up watching the last 4 episodes for Danson. Joe stars as a brat that is a famous model. He's the sister of Wu Xiong's best friend and things just happen. LOL 2.8/5
Survivor's Law (律政新人王) - 2003; I watched the first series, but not it's sequel. Law drama starring Rayray, Myolie, Sammul and Bernice Liu. Many confusing things happen on their way to being a lawyer. Sammul kinda backstabs them and completely goes against his original principles and all his friends "pay c" him. The theme song was one of my more favourite Rayray songs. (I really don't like his debut album that much.. the songs just weren't as super as his pre-debut stuff.) 3/5
The Legendary Four Aces (金裝四大才子) - 2000; Oh wow, I totally forgot this even existed. It was like a more comedic/somewhat "modern-effected" version at the time of the legendary four aces story. I just remember this was super amusing. The only thing I remember is that Esther Kwan was soooooo old compared to Nick! 3.5/5
The Magicians of Love (愛情魔髮師) - 2006; This was the first 183 Club drama I ever watched. It's because my SIL has a huge thing for Ming Dao. (Doesn't Ethan look similar to him? XD) This drama is revolved around the romance and drama that happens at Neo-something-IMAGE, the hair salon that those 183 boys own. And.. things happen. It's rather exciting, and I totally had the hots for Sam Wang. 4/5
The Monkey King:Quest for the Sutra (齊天大聖孫悟空) - 2002; The VERY DIFFERENT version of the Monkey King story. Still starring Dicky but along many huge HK stars as well as Taiwanese actors. I thought this was rather interesting and highly amusing, despite my disliking of Twins' acting.... But hey, lucky for Gillian, she gets to fall in love with Na Ja, aka Jimmy Lin ? This was my first time seeing him act and this is when I started to fangirl him. You get a lot of epic quotes from this version! To this day, my friend Nhon probably still knows those random quotes off by heart and will probably blab it out when you least expect! 5/5
The Myth (神话) - 2010; This is actually on hd tudou WHILE it was airing.... they up like 3 episodes a day. I was so hooked because it was HD and because it was Hu Ge and because there were 3 episodes in a day. lol. This is the Chinese drama version of film of the same title which starred Jackie Chan. Hu Ge goes back in time and has to live like a kazillion years to wait for the modern world and.. yeah it's... pretty much like A Step Into The Past, but this has got more action and a lot more effects which are completely wicked. 4/5
The Outsiders (鬥魚) - 2004; Like.. some epic Ady/Dylan drama. It's so old school but had like so much drama in it. Everything possible like... deliquent falls in love with a kind girl who knows how to play piano from a well off background. And her parents dislike deliquent, and then Ady and Dylan elope together. However, after high school grad, Dylan joins the mafia. Lots of mafia wars there, and Ady gets raped! and man. lots of things happen. Wait to see what happens in the end!! 3.9/5
The Vampire Returns (大頭綠衣鬥殭屍) - 1993; This has got to be one of THE MOST EPIC LONG dramas I have seen in my life. LOOK AT THAT DATE!!! 1993~! I'm surprised I'm like the only one who remembers it, or at least parts of it. I just remember that Sammi Cheng is in here, and she plays to roles, one is this kinda tomboyish girl that crushes on some dude, and the other is her dead twin sister, whom we can see when we zoom into her little room which is below her grave. (The guy that alive!Sammi crushes on crushes on dead!Sammi), it's kind of confusing. But it does have Vampires in it. The... hopping chinese kinds. Those vampires are really scary. It's probably because of dramas like this that make me scared of Chinese Vampires. Anyways, this is CHOU EPIC YO! I mean, even DRAMAWIKI doesn't have a proper page for it. All it has is.. the name of the drama, and the cast. No picture of sypnosis. :( Anyways, in the end, alive!Sammi somehow sacrifices herself, and then all the people wait for her to reincarnate herself, which is a long time, and when she is born, everyone is all OMO!!!! You've reincarnated!!! when in truth, she reincarnated into the baby bird just outside the birth room of this couple. Sooo yeah. Everyone is old by then though, including the guy that crushes on Sammi. 4/5
The W Files (衛斯理) - 2003; based on the novel series, it's like an adventure drama starring Gallen Lo and Yoyo Mung where they crack many supernatural cases. It's really really cool, and has a lot of action in it. 4/5
The White Flame (紅衣手記) - 2002; This was the drama that first made me want to become a nurse when I was in junior high. This was like the first time I spoke out and said I want to be such and such when I grow up. At least as far as I remember~ Again, I totally praise Charmaine in here. I think she's such an awesome actress. And I think she's absolutely lovely and cute. I loved on her hairdo in this drama and totally wanted to perm my hair and cut it short BECAUSE OF HER! Actually I still dooo want to perm my hair, but she's no longer still the only reason for that. XD This drama was kinda like about nurses or how they train to become nurses. It's pretty interesting if you like your somewhat medical dramas. Think of it as a better N's Aoi in HK version. 4/5
White Robes of Love (白袍之戀) - 2006; This was basically a dramathon for Michael Zhang.... and sort of Ady An/Dylan Kuo. I wrote a sort of entry on it. 4/5
Triumph in the Skies (衝上雲宵) - 2003; a drama focusing on the day to day operations of the airport, from pilot, to stewardess, to those people in training, to basically any staff at the airport, as well as their personal lives. Starring Francis Ng, Flora Chan, Joe Ma, Myolie, Bosco, Sammul, Michelle Yip, and Ron Ng. I hated Myolie in here, she was so annoying/irritating. Actually, she never really made it high on my TVB actress list. 5/5
Vigilante Force (智勇新警界) - 2003; Police drama starring Bowie, Kenix, Joe Ma, and Tavia. Uhh... something about Kenneth saving Kenix's life but having a bullet into his head and it's still in there but hasn't done any damage to him YET. He movies into this rural area in HK and... yeah. I think Tavia was some pregnant chick in here and Bowie takes care of her blah blah blah. 1/5
Wayward Kenting (我在墾丁*天氣晴) - 2008; Human drama that revolves around the lives of Eddie, Janine Chang, and Ethan where they all meet in Kenting. Eddie and Ethan somehow meet and they decide to open up a surfer's shop near the beach... and yeah. Kenting is a really pretty place. At least the majority of it is. 3/5
When Rules Turn Loose (識法代言人) - 2005; Ok, a drama that I totally watch because of Sammul. <3 Uhhhh... yeah it just sounded like Survivor's Law to me but minus Rayray and Bernice. Except I totally dig Survivor's Law more because it had some humour in it. The humour in here is minor and well it's just boring in general. I kind of think that Lisa Wang is a little overrated so I tend to be biased when I watch a drama with her in it... =\ 2/5
