Top 10 Asian Dramas Of 2023

And now last but not least, here's the Top 10 Asian Dramas list! Again, this list is based on my personal opinions and may contain spoilers. If you'd like to see more, make sure to check out my Weekly Drama ReviewsFavorite YouTube Videos and My Asian OTPs & Ships as well as checking out my Top 10 Asian Dramas Of 2018Top 10 Asian Dramas Of 2019Top 10 Asian Dramas Of 2020Top 10 Asian Dramas Of 2021, and Top 10 Asian Dramas Of 2022 lists!

Coming in at number 10 is Bo Ra! Deborah!! This show was honestly cuter than it had any right to be. The beginning was a bit rough cause I'm a little over most enemies to lovers tropes but I think it was as soon as episode 3 that it started to settle in and become so cute. I'm honestly a sucker for a good soft male lead and though our male lead here started out feeling like he was going to be a cold one, he quickly showed us his soft underbelly and that's where I fell in love. I loved the idea of a dating expert realizing that all the advice she gave to the world was nothing if she couldn't focus on her own love life and that we focused so hard on the idea of what to do after a breakup and the different routes we could take.

At number 9 is My Lovely Liar!! Unique show concepts are so totally my jam so the fact that this show chose to focus on a woman who could detect lies and a guy who almost never told a lie was so fun. The chemistry between our main leads of course was the reason that I stuck around with this show but I also really did love the story. Okay yes I really didn't need the murder mystery cause for some reason kdramas are obsessed with adding a murder to rom coms which is hella weird tbh but everything else about this show was perfect.

Coming in at number 8 is Crash Course In Romance!! This show was a surprise to be about how much I ended up liking it. The show started out feeling like it was going to be a typical slaphappy comedy where I prefer more subtle comedy but then somehow around halfway through this show after when the male lead realized he was in love with the female lead and freaking out over the fact that he thought she was married, I realized I was looking forward to new episodes every week. I am a sucker for forbidden love tropes so I soaked in all the angsty goodness. The stalked plot twist was a bit unneeded in my opinion but I guess it gave the show something to do in the later episodes of the season after our leads got together and were happy.

At number 7 is Tale Of The Nine Tailed 1938!! Another surprise hit joining my list cause I really didn't enjoy the original season of Tale Of The Nine Tailed and I'm not sure if it was because of the main romance not hitting for me or the fact that since this was taking place in the past all the characters were chiller than they would be and especially Yeon could relax and be funny rather than stressed about the end of the world or whatever. The new cast were all interesting to watch as was the setting and the costuming but of course the relationship between the two brothers being such a focus made this show stand out.

Coming in at number 6 is Pending Train: 8:23, Ashita Kimi to!! As the only jdrama to make it onto my list this year, you have to know this is a good one! I love stranded somewhere stories and this one I felt had an interesting slow burn pace that most of these survival shows don't have. The main trio were all fun to watch and the romance between our leads was very cute. I also really loved the fact that the story didn't end when our stranded heroes returned but actually it followed the idea of how victims continue on with their lives after a big event. How can they return to normal if everyone around them has changed including themselves?

At number 5 is Nothing But You!! This is a noona romance that stole my heart from the first episode that I watched. I don't usually love noona romances cause those kinds of shows always put such a focus on the age gap and shaming the female lead when there are literal shows in which the male leads are twice the age of the female leads and yet no one says anything. From my memory though there wasn't too much of that nonsense in this show which is why I loved it. I loved that our main leads started out as friends and slowly evolved into something more and I loved the focus on sports. Leo is always a star in everything he does and I'm obsessed. 

Coming in at number 4 is Celebrity!! This is the year in which I decided I'm totally in love with Netflix kdramas cause they feel so large and different than most kdramas. They are so beautiful to look at and they always seem to avoid all the usual kdrama pitfalls and tropes that annoy me. This show follows social media influencers but also focuses on the 1% and bullying and I adored every moment. The plot was so dark and twisty and I loved seeing our female lead kick butt. The romance in this show did feel a bit underdeveloped despite the intense chemistry our leads had cause though he was clearly head over heels from day 1, she seemed to go from hating him to loving him in the course of one episode. The ending was strange but not unwelcome.

At number 3 is Hidden Love!! This is hands down the best cdrama that aired this year in my opinion which is definitely saying something cause usually I'm a fan of modern day kdramas and historical cdramas but ironically between this and Nothing But You, it was the modern cdramas that had a chokehold on my heart this time around. This show is at it's core a rom com with no hidden bells and whistles but sometimes that's exactly what you need. A good old fashioned romance isn't that popular to do anymore cause the show needs to have well written characters and a well written romance since there's nothing else in the show to distract the audience. This show did all that and more. I loved every single moment of this show and how warm the tone was.

Coming in at number 2 is Hate To Love You!! I was obsessed with this kdrama the first time I watched it cause I don't think I've ever seen a show with such a concept before! Our leads feel so American more than Korean with their thoughts about romance. It was funny in a subtle way which means no physical comedy as is my jam and the romance between our leads was so intensely good. I was a bit hesitant going into the drama cause the description for this show was so terrible but honestly if you are curious at all about this show I'd definitely recommend checking it out! The whole manhater/womanhater thing was definitely much less of a plot point than it seemed to be and both the main leads acted like adults so there wasn't a lot of misunderstandings that dragged out.

And finally my number 1 favorite drama of 2023 is The Glory!! I mean really could it have been anything else when this show was one of the more hyped up shows this year to the degree that people who don't even watch kdramas were talking about this show! I didn't watch the first season when it first came out cause I think I thought rather than a revenge story this was more rich people drama like Penthouse but I eventually was bored enough to check it out and I was sucked in. I loved that this show didn't hype up the idea that a good person always forgives like in a lot of other dramas and that we actually saw our female lead make a revenge plan and follow it through to the end. She was leaps and bounds ahead of everyone else and it was so much fun to see her put these horrible monsters in their places. And let's not forget the romance which shined like a bright light amongst all the dark. I loved that not only weren't they so cute together but that it also gave her a reason to want something at the end of her revenge tunnel and see that there could be more to her life. If you haven't seen this show yet you have to have to check it out!


And with that we come to the end of my Top 10 Asian Dramas Of 2023! I hope you have a wonderful New Year!!

Top 10 Asian Dramas Of 2022

And now last but not least, here's the Top 10 Asian Dramas list! Again, this list is based on my personal opinions and may contain spoilers. If you'd like to see more, make sure to check out my Weekly Drama ReviewsFavorite YouTube Videos and My Asian OTPs & Ships as well as checking out my Top 10 Asian Dramas Of 2018Top 10 Asian Dramas Of 2019Top 10 Asian Dramas Of 2020, and Top 10 Asian Dramas Of 2021 lists!

Coming in at number 10 is Love Like The Galaxy! The main reason I loved this show as much as I did ended up being due to the evil side of me liking when people who are mean being put in their place. In actuality this show was touch and go in terms of my enjoyment cause it started out rough with the female lead being shit on from every angle to a rough middle where the female lead acted like a hot naive mess who refused to learn how the world worked to an okay third part where I adored the main couple falling in love and being on top of the world only to limp to an end after we had a terrible break up and a sort of reconciliation. It's not exactly going to end up being at the top of any of my favorite lists but it was fun enough to watch during moments.

At number 9 is A Familiar Stranger! This is the first of two short-form dramas that I have on this list but I ended up really adoring this one probs because it was so short. This drama had a whole story jam packed into four episodes which meant that unlike a lot of short forms it didn't feel like we were just killing time until the show ended but also it didn't drag things out like most regular length dramas do. Our couple fell in love at a comfortable pace and then they trusted each other from then on which meant that rather than do the cliche you lied to me scene they looked to figure out why they might have been lied to. I also loved that the second male lead who was also the villain ended up falling in love with our female lead too cause I'm low key a sucker for tragedy!

Coming in at number 8 is Twenty Five Twenty One! Speaking of tragedies this drama really ripped my heart out almost every week only to end by stomping on my pour heart. I know that most first loves don't end up together but it always makes me sad when it happens in a drama cause duh we're out here watching these two fall in love over 20 episodes only to end with them breaking up and marrying others! I like my shows to have happy endings! Despite that though this show was a lovely snapshot into the lives of these two and we got to see them go from rock bottom to the top of the world and it gave us so many messages about youth and dreams and love.

At number 7 is Who Rules The World! I absolutely adored this drama not only cause Yang Yang is the star of puppy eyed male leads who would die for the women they loved cause the female lead in this show was just as ride or die as the male lead! It's truly one of my most favorite tropes in dramas to have couples that are super badass and competent on their own work together to run the world. I loved that these two started out as frienmies and became lovers but that they never once lost their trust in one another no matter what stage their relationship was in. They were equals from start to finish with no one having any more power over the other cause they were both good at martial arts and they were both royalty in their own kingdoms. The ending was bittersweet but it didn't take away from any of the fun I had watching it.

Coming in at number 6 is Night Of Love With You! This is actually the second short form drama on my list and I really loved this one so much that I debated whether it should even be my number 1 drama of the year when I first finished it. I'm such a sucker for dramas in which characters realize they're a comic character or real life people get thrown into a comic especially when they take on the role of the villains so the fact that this drama follows a second female lead who enters the body of the female lead only to fall in love with the villain rather than the male lead meant that I would be predisposed to love it. The short length of the drama meant plot points were fast paced and nothing dragged. The chemistry between the leads were perfect and I loved the ending!

At number 5 is The Law Cafe! I truly loved how creative this show was cause it gave me one of my favorite kdrama female leads in a while. She was super smart and competent but also kind and not afraid to stand up for herself or the romance she wanted. There was no hemming and hawing on her part and I loved that the male lead spent half the show in awe of her magnificence. The weekly law cases were fun and I liked the way they all ended up leading back to the main couple's past. I also adored every costume the female lead wore and for once I was jealous of the clothing she wore rather than confused as to why the female lead dresses like a hobo. The relationship between our main couple was also so healthy and even when they went through a bump in the road they were able to get past it like adults which is so rare in dramas!

Coming in at number 4 is All Of Us Are Dead! I do love zombie movies and shows and this one was just as fun as all the others I've seen. I ended up getting emotionally attached to the secondary couple a lot more than the main one here which is the first time in a while that's happened but I liked the dynamic there a lot more. It was fun to follow a show in which a school gets locked down cause of this zombie outbreak and that we actually saw main characters get turned into zombies and fight it. Like I said I liked the secondary couple and the fact that they were in love but couldn't be together cause she was a zombie and he was a human and that he sometimes acted as the safety pin in her bomb.

At number 3 is The Fabulous! This is a late edition to my top 10 list cause it literally just came out this past week but I binged in one day and I was so obsessed that I couldn't help but shoot it to the top! This show was basically everything Record Of Youth had wanted to be. It was sexy and mature and glitzy and fun as it followed a group of friends as they navigated the fashion world. I liked that every member of the group had a fully formed career that they were actually good at and they really loved one another rather than being fake friends or back-stabby. The main couple was so cute together and I liked that we met them after they dated and broke up before cause it gave us a different chemistry than two people who met each other for the first time. 

Coming in at number 2 is Our Beloved Summer! Speaking of meeting a couple after they dated and broke up, this show was everything to me as I watched it and even now. It follows a couple who were the stars of a documentary when they were kids after which they dated and broke up only to come back together to film a where are they now version of that same documentary and fall back in love. I loved the concept for this show and for once the execution was perfect as well. I loved that we didn't get the full story of why these two broke up and that we first saw everything from his POV and took his side only to get her POV and start to see her side as well. I loved that it was so obvious that these two still loved one another so when they found their way back it was believable and we all cheered! I also loved that the only plot of this show was their romance so it felt so warm and cozy to watch!

And finally my number 1 favorite drama of 2022 is Money Heist: Korea! I've never actually seen the original version of this show so I think I probably had even more watching this show cause it was my first time experiencing this world and this story. I loved that everything was planned out from the start so even when things seemed like they were going poorly the curtain was pulled back every time to show us that no actually things are exactly on track. It's the reason I love watching con artist or heist shows cause I like the idea of my main characters being on a whole different league than everyone else. The romances in this show were a bit out of place but I had so much fun with the action and mystery and intrigue that I didn't mind it!


And with that we come to the end of my Top 10 Asian Dramas Of 2022! I hope you have a wonderful New Year and I'll see you all tomorrow for my Fall 2022 Anime Awards!

My KDrama OTPs & Ships

Hello my loves! So about six years ago I fell into a deep pit of asian dramas and if you haven't watched any, you're SERIOUSLY missing out. The romances in these shows are so heartwarming and heartbreaking and straight up they might have ruined me for regular tv shows cause why spend seasons upon seasons waiting for your ship to happen when in an asian drama, it'll happen within 20ish episodes and each storyline will wrap up meaningfully. So now that I've watched a whole bunch I debated whether I wanted to add these ships to my favorite tv show ships list but then decided cause there were so many I might as well make a whole new list so here we are!
