I watched Delicious Romance (爱很美味) on a whim while waiting for the completion of several other more recent Chinese dramas including Master Of My Own. Being 20 episodes in all, this production seems like a practical choice for passing time before I move on to the more popular and longer dramas. Surprisingly, it was a good choice especially when I started this with zero … [Read more...] about Delicious Romance Review

Is it … [Read more...] about My Sassy Princess Review
Decreed By Fate Review
Decreed By Fate (千金难逃) is one of those lower budget Chinese dramas that you might binge on when you have nothing else to watch. It is short and you can easily finish it within a day or two if you find the story interesting. This is not the kind of drama that you would expect much from since it has no big names to offer. Nevertheless, such productions can still spring a nice … [Read more...] about Decreed By Fate Review
