A Chinese drama under this topic, is it even possible? It is 8 episodes full amount of time needed roughly 3 hours.
If you need some distraction after watching a long drama, this might be something for you. No body swap but a face swap, be ready for a fun watch, if you are familiar with my preferences you might know that this isn’t my favorite trope anyway I enjoyed it and appreciated the short duration.

What to do, it was already posted normally there is that annoying warning, about somebody already … When you need it, it doesn’t work.

So, if you want to know more about it, read what vivi wrote about it.

Found another one, I don’t know why it gives me French vibes, maybe because the ML is an antihero at first glance. I have not finished it yet, but it seems entertaining in its own weird way.

No post about this one yet? Okay, here we go, nothing new under the sun, but quite entertaining, if you are looking for something short, with a bit of thrill and drama on the side, family business, inheritance debate, revenge and what not. This drama pretty much has it all and an alpha-male as lead who breaks down crying, we don’t get to see that as often, maybe the Korean “Secret” with Ji Sung had it, … By Chinese standard one of the shortest you will get to see, 24 eps all in all roughly 12 hours needed. For the rainy weekend or the need of a filler for some distraction.
If you perhaps liked

and/or

This might be your cup of tea.

By the way I found another of the shorter ones, seems to become a thing in China. Can’t tell too much about the story now, I am only at the 2nd ep

Keep it up!

You want a short Chinese drama? How about this one with only 7, ~30-min. eps! Now that is short. I started and finished yesterday. It’s not going to blow your socks off, but I enjoyed it.

p.s. What happened to my option to upload a link from the web? That was the only way I could ever get the full “Viki box” for dramas I was sharing. When I click on the “upload” box now, I can only choose to upload from my own computer. :unamused:

I don’t know, I usually copy and past the link and hit enter as often as it takes to see the “box”. Ah, you are using your smart phone … No idea, not at that stage yet.

I’m not on my phone, I’m on my laptop. Oh well :slightly_frowning_face: I’ll try your trick next time I post something.

LOL … no trick, but a habit. :wink:

I just found this one, anyone seen it? I think, I will give it a try, desperately in need of a drama I can finish before the weekend.

No alarm, so no one recommended it here, I did not rate it as high, as most of the people here on Viki have, but if you are feeling sick, you have to lay down, or you can’t leave the house because the weather is bad. Then give it a try, it is really short, it might be the shortest C-drama in the entire collection!

Oh, again, no one?
I really liked this one, as someone who lost people dear to me in the past year, this drama had some kind of “cleaning” effect on me.
It’s endearing and mindful, at least that’s what it was for me. Didn’t feel any triggers even the topics of death and the circle of life were all over the drama, from losing your parent, your child, your spouse, maybe you will keep that in mind, before starting it …

What are you looking for in a drama with 10 episodes?

  • birth secret
  • love triangle - two and half boys/men falling for the FL
  • foodporn
  • nice landscape
  • vacationlike setting
  • only a little dramatic turn towards the …
  • happy end

Almost forgot, there was another short drama I recently watched:

For me, it is a little gem, as I like unusual characters, those who like to forsake the standards of society and don’t bend just because they are told they should.
I like the mom and daughter package, they seem odd, but at some point you wished to be just like them. Accept the people that are good to you and discard those who are not at least in your private life, as for work there is always some kind of compromise you need to make, or don’t you? I enjoyed it, I hope you will like it too if you give it a try!


15 days later, if you perhaps read this now, please not only give it a :heart: but write a short comment as Discussions blocked me from writing a fourth comment in a row. Thank you!

Drum rolls, is this one here already?

No, not either …
One could be dismissive about the topic, but hey, for one, you won’t see a piece of skin you are not supposed to. Even intimate scenes, which are not many, and show nothing, so if that would be keeping you from the drama, there is no reason.
All in all the drama is about self-esteem, self-awareness, confidence and courage … With what I would describe beautifully written characters.
Maybe you want to give it a try?

I would like to recommend a K-drama that’s been out for a year or two, Remarriage & Desires. It’s on another streaming service (It’s on the poster below) but I’ve watched it twice now and I thought it was pretty darned good. Short, only 8 episodes so you could probably binge it in a day or so.

I know it’s a bit early but the series is 12 episodes and last episode is on Sunday… What can I say I was just going to be a segger for this but I loved it (and the team I’m in).
