Somehow I got sucked into watching CDramas recently, and have found a couple that I really enjoyed! These will be added to this thread. Feel free to add your own!

Story:
Orchid, a weak fairy from Heaven, accidentally awakens the powerful Moon Tribe immortal Dongfang Qingcang from the seal that was placed upon him 30,000 years prior. Hatred between Heaven and the Moon Tribe runs deep, and Dongfang will lead his people to destroy heaven... But first he must break the curse that ties his life to the fairy who saved him.
Thoughts:
Based upon the title, I'm sure it's obvious that this is a romance. It is a drama, but it is peppered with a lot of humor to help keep things from becoming too dark. This humor is well-placed and believable, never becoming silly or throwing off the vibe of the story as many of the other CDramas I've seen have a habit of doing.
The super-cute voice and mannerisms of the female lead definitely put me off at first, but there is some amazing character-growth as the series progresses all the way around that absolutely ties everything together is a satisfying manner.
I was both surprised and pleased to find some arcing storylines mixed into the fold, broadening the series and making it even more interesting.
Absolutely worth the time that I put into watching, as I enjoyed it very much! Definitely recommended!
