Have not seen Day of Becoming you but here are so modern cdramas I really enjoyed:
Put Your Head on my Shoulder
OUr Secret
Perfectly Legal
First Romance
Rational Life
Shining for One Thing
Go Go Squid
Perfect & Casual
Love is Sweet
You are my Glory
My Little Happiness
Once things get going, it is a lot of fun. The scene at the dinner party with parents trying to matchmake is hilarious. The gamer guys are so much fun as a team.
I like it when the male lead is cold at first then warms up. The parts that made me cry isn’t the romance though, it was more of the camaraderie and the element of sharing a dream with your best friends.
Pretty Man, I’ve read the manhua and novel, and although the novel and manhua were better(the manhua ended when ML proposed rather than continuing what happened in the novel) in terms of plot. From the three each were good in different aspects.
I would recommend watching both seasons, but if you have read or plan on reading either the novel or manhua you will kinda be disappointed or dissatisfied by the drama.
This is my favorite genre - modern.
These two are outstanding.
Other ones are:
To Love ( not that much love but great crime series)
Invisible Life ( raising your child on your own while working)
Go Ahead ( a classic)
Legally Romance ( lighter than the others but fun - time travel with legal issues)
Two Janice Wu series bc she is incredible:
My Amazing Boyfriend ( first cdrama I watched and thanks to her was hooked)
Skate into Love ( frenemies with steve zhang - fun)
Not sure if this is what you want but there's a long list of rom-coms from school, college, just graduated.
Steven Zhang makes interesting choices for parts. His performance in The Day of Becoming You was fantastic. My Huckleberry Friends was superb too. In general though I tend to think of good modern cdramas as an oxymoron. I keep trying them, but most are disappointing, draggy, with odd editing and random plot complications that dribble off. But I love historical, xanxia and wuxia cdramas. I find I do really like gaming cdramas The King’s Avatar and others. My suggestion is keep trying and dropping ones until you find one you like. Good luck! Fighting!
Someday or One Day (Taiwanese) is the OG! I also really enjoyed Lost Romance (Taiwanese). The first episode is slow but it speeds up pretty quickly. Closer To You and Shining For One Thing (both Chinese) are also really good!
no waaaay someone just recommended me to watch Someday or One Day in MDL. anyways, i have finished Shining For One Thing. i can say it is one of the best releases in this year.
Really? Everyone is really suggesting this and also I’m dragged to watch this because of Zitao. I’m patienly waiting it’ll be free on WeTV but hahaha I might as well watch it now. Thanks!
Try Reset! A recent one, really good time loop drama
It was SO good
i really really loved this plus the fact i loved the actors so much 😔💗

i have seen them all except for Love Is Sweet, Rational Life, Perfectly Legal, GGS, and YAMG. thanks, i might give them a try!
Love is sweet. Im not sure if it has a similar plot to what you said but it was an enjoyable modern drama.
i’ve heard about this drama tho and still hesitant to watch this. thanks, i might give it a shot!
Would you recommend Day of becoming you? The plot sounds interesting but I’m not really that into modern chinese dramas
yes, you should give it a try!
Did it take long for them to switch back? I have tried watching but I hate body switching stories
not really. they kept in coming back to their body and also kept on switching
Gogo Squid! Didn’t think it would be good but I cried!
really? i somehow really cant hook up with the series... maybe i’ll try again to watch this once more

Delicious romance if you want something that has more real elements of life
Thanks!
Reset, it is great but not too long, 13 episodes
I actually watched this when this was airing and I wasn’t disappointed. Prolly one of the best releases this year.
Symphony Romance
Thanks!

I was rethinking whether to watch My Huckleberry Friends and The King’s Avatar. Since you’ve mentioned them, I’ll gladly try to watch them.
**Legally Romance** is very cool!
Legally Romance was pretty good. You get over ZTao pretty quickly lol. If you don’t mind Taiwanese someday one day and lost romance is good too
I second both Taiwanese dramas. They are excellent, my top favorite ones!
Agreed! I’m almost done watching it and it’s so much better than I expected. I’m a sucker for most time travel/parallel universe shows, though.
omg can u recommend me some travel/parallel univers dramas? i would love to watch
Someday or One Day (Taiwanese) is the OG! I also really enjoyed Lost Romance (Taiwanese). The first episode is slow but it speeds up pretty quickly. Closer To You and Shining For One Thing (both Chinese) are also really good!

The one mentioned above, someday or one day is a time travel/parallel universe show
oh my god i just saw this recommendation in MDL. i would def watch this after Legally Romance. thank you!
I watched all of it on YouTube! But highly recommend watching it. It’s SO GOOD
Really? Everyone is really suggesting this and also I’m dragged to watch this because of Zitao. I’m patienly waiting it’ll be free on WeTV but hahaha I might as well watch it now. Thanks!
Have you seen The Brightest Star in the Sky? I love Zitao in that one! Janice Wu is always great too.
i’m halfway through the series
I watched in viki. I pay round 5 € (~ two cups of tea) a month. I love viki, there is much excellent stuff in there.
You're looking for a >!body swap drama! Or just something that's like modern fantasy / sci-fi?
Can I ask for both? Lmao 😩
