    TO WATCH:
    • Lavender ( Starring Tammy Chen and Ambrose Hsu)
    • Devil beside you ( starring Mike He and Rainie Yang)
    • It started with a kiss ( Joe Cheng and Ariel Lin)
    • Prince turns into a frof ( Ming Dao And Joe chen)
    • The magicians of love ( Ming Dao and Joanne Zeng)
    • My Lucky star ( Jimmy Lin and Yoo Ha Na) is airing, is really good and is jimmy's first idol drama.
    • Meteor Garden ( F4 and Da S )
    • Mars ( Vic Zhou and Da S)
    • Smile Pasta ( Cyndi Wang and Nicolas Teo )
    I also recommend korean and japanese drama's. Some of them are also very good, like:
    • Goong ( korean )
    • Hana Yori Dango 1+2 ( Japanese ) [japanese version of Meteor Garden]
    • My name is Kim Sam Soon ( korean )
    • Freeze ( korean ) only 5 eps
    • My girl ( korean )

    most are already said, but out of all taiwanese series i have watched, the ones i like the most are, MG 1 (not MG2 though) and Smiling Pasta... It started with a kiss is not bad.. and I kind of like Hana Kimi (but disappointing ending, don't expect much story-wise, the best thing bout this series are the exaggerated expressions, I reli like those lol)

    to avoid, tokyo juliet (OMG PLEASE!!!!)

    Default Engagement for Love

    I read so many pple recommending My Lucky Star in this forum, guess it'll b the next drama for me to watch. I hesistated initially cos I read from other websites that Jimmy's acting is not good.

    Meanwhile, i starting on Magicians of Love soon, reallylooking forward to it.

    Can anybody tell me where I can watch "prince turns into frog' online?
    BTW, I am watching Engagement For Love now. Not too bad. Its quite funny and the show is about relationship between a man (Alex To) who is 18 years older than the girl (Lara from Nan Quan Mama!).

    Too bad this drama is not given much publicity. But those who like Alex To or Ambrose Hsu, go watch it!

    You will find a very different jimmy in My Lucky Star. His acting has matured and improved a lot. He played a character from 26 to 31. His 26 yr old Zhong Tian Qi is naive, carefree, but reckless. Then 5 yrs later he turns into a cold, calculating, mean, and ruthless businessman. The series just jumps 5 yrs ahead and you will see, OMG, is that really him. It's like a different character. You will see how well he portrays the 2 sides of Zhong Tian Qi. Give My Lucky Star a try. You won't regret it.

    The top 10 highest rating list is now:
    1、王子變青蛙 8.05 The Prince Turns to Frog 2005
    2、愛情魔法師 7.07 The Magicians of Love 2006
    3、惡作劇之吻 6.5 It Started With a Kiss 2005
    4、流星花園 6.43 Meteor Garden 2001
    5、放羊的星星 5.84 My Lucky Star 2007
    6、微笑pasta 5.67 Smile Pasta 2006
    7、花樣少年少女 5.09 Hani Kami 2006-07
    8、轉角遇到愛 5.06 Corner of Love 2007
    9、格斗天王 4.63 Mr Fighting 2005
    10、天國的嫁衣 4.49 Heaven's Wedding Gown 2004

    Watch Lavender and Sounds of Color. Don't watch - most idol serials. I suggest mainland dramas because they are so much better.

    well, i think prince turns into a frog is good and ying ye 3 + 1 mainly because i like joe chen and ming dao...

    looking back i think lavender is good as well and dolphin bay is not bad but its pretty old, a few years old.. i just remembered because i went through my old vcds

    for korean, there are so many but I would like to recommend the following:
    kim sam soon
    sassy girl chun hyang
    sang doo lets go to school
    winter sonata
    princess hours
    lovers in paris

    Watch:
    Huan Zhu Ge Ge I
    It Started With A Kiss (E Zuo Ju Zhi Wen) --very cute
    Corner With Love (Zhuan Jiao * Yu Dao Ai)--currently watching, very funny, Xiao Zhu is hilarious
    Hua yang shao nian shao nv (Hana Kimi) -- didn't finish yet, cause my disks are wrong (), but from what I watched on youtube, its very "kua zhang" (exaggerated) and I love it!
    ...hmm there's more, but I can't remember. I'm not such a big Taiwanese drama watcher though, I usually go for the Mainland dramas. But Taiwanese dramas are definately very cute and funny....not to mention the fact that they usually have EXCELLENT soundtracks!

    Don't Watch:
    If you hate Taiwanese accents that are barely understandable, don't watch Dou Yu (The Outsiders). Honestly, I barely made it through Episode 1. The Taiwanese accents are very strong.

    Sounds Interesting:
    Anyone have opinions on these dramas? I haven't watched them yet, but I've seen clips of them and they look interesting...
    Romantic Princess (Gong Zhu Xiao Mei) -- Angela is so pretty in this one.
    La Robe de Mariage des Cieux (something along those lines) (Tian Guo de Jia Yi)
    Bull Fighting (Dou Niu, Yao Bu Yao?)
    Bump off Lover (Ai Sha 18)
    ISWAK 2 (They Kiss Again)

    ~red
    hu ge, yang mi, yuan hong, liu shishi.
    wang luodan, li guangjie.

    Umm...Romantic Princess is pretty average. If you like Angela, you should really watch Bump Off Lover because it's a good psychological thriller/mystery and things are not always as they seem. I suggest you watch Bump Off Lover first then Romantic Princess and see which one you like Angela in more.
    I just love how you Captivate My Mind

    Self reminder - Update blog more often and continue editing/writing for TOV fanfic.
