I misread it as first as "Which of these titles do NOT belong in actual dramas?", which would result in somewhat different answers since anything I think would be a terrible title is likely to get used. I'm not saying jdramas are the pinnacle of cliché-free writing, but kdramas in particular make me facepalm with their over-the-top plots (and horrible titles).

LOL! I would say that by rights, none of these titles belong in dramas. But that certainly isn't about to stop them! ;-)

I hesitate to judge if jdramas are really better, on the whole... in truth, I suspect that the lack of plotting limits rules in Japan, Korea and China, too. ;-)

You are a braver woman than I if you start with any of these!

...

Okay. I admit that I am going to check out one of these. Or maybe two. Or three. Mostly because of a kind of morbid curiosity in the case of the Vampire titles, though... ;-)

(That said, there are truly *excellent* Korean dramas. Somehow I doubt these titles will be among them, though. Call me a sceptic.)

What genres would you like recs for? Do you do romantic comedies at all? I've been watching a lot of those lately...

I haven't watched any scifi dramas, and only few fantasy ones. (Hee, There is one very famous fantasy epic that is so ridiculously over the top you might find it highly amusing, actually. *g*)

There's also one really, really good psychological thriller that I'd immediately recommend to you: Mawang (The Devil). And I can give you links and more recs tomorrow, but probably not before evening...
