I Started my journey in Asian drama wonderland with K-dramas… exclusively for two years … until I decided out of lack of a complete kdrama fitting my mood of the moment… to give it a try to a Chinese drama, whose length used to deter me … and I discovered the epic xanxia, Wuxia that are unique to Chinese culture, as well as the contemporary dramas that the Chinese make, that are so fulfilling from an emotional and learning standpoint…I now think that Korean dramas were a good entry point before watching Chinese dramas, which are much longer but do take the time to develop  characters and situations in a very unique, subtle and sensitive way. 
I only watch a drama once fully aired, as I enjoy it the most when I can binge-watch a complete series…and I am now exclusive and dedicated to Korean and Chinese dramas…
