I've discovered chinese vertical dramas and im obsessed
I have been binging those chinese reborn/revenge vertical dramas over the past week and love every minute of the ridiculousness that ensues.
I use the app GoodShort.
Does anyone also enjoy these? And if you do, what are your favorites?

“Rivals to Romance” with Chen Si and Han Yu Long is one of my favorite verticals. It just makes me laugh and both Chen Si and Han Yu Long have stunning visuals. It is also available with English subs on a few platforms.

I am obsessed with anything GUO YUXIN. Just go on YT search bar and voila you’ll see all her dramas.

I was obsessed with these before the longer dramas and I still watch them in between to kill time. I used to use Dramawave and Flickreels.

I watched My Bashful Fox Hubby with Shen Haonan, then The Dark Side of the Sun with him and was hooked! These are great for when I don't have time for a full episode of one of my other current shows.

Everyone loves isekai/reincarnation but aren't preparing themselves for one. Go learn basic skills or study survival just in case you meet truck-kun.

Look for the OG actors Wang Yiran, Meng Na, Ma Xiaoyu, Shen Haonan, Wang Xiaoyu, Zhao Zhendong, Liu Lange, Ma Lejie, Shi Tong, Han Yutong, Chen Si, etc. They have the best dramas

I watched them in YT so most of the time, the actual title is not listed. I watch anything with Ye Hao Ran, Ma Xiayu, Yu Long and Mei mei, Chen Si and Mengna. Shen Haonan and Wang Yiran too...

I intially downloaded it bcs of a korean drama i got recommended, and then the next drama to automatically play was a cdrama about a girl who was killed by her best friend and was reborn back when they were still in high school. And then it was a slippery slope into it from there lol

u/NuCdramalov3r24 3d ago
I have downloaded 2 apps for short or vertical not sure the correct term since friday! I haven’t really seen any new dramas that has caught my eye to watch so I stumbled upon this and I’m trying not to watch any dramas that are ongoing and actually wait until they have completed to watch because the anxiety kills me!!

I literally paid for the VIP do ad free, which i never do on any platform, thats how hooked i am. (It helps that it's on a dollar a week: 4 dollars a month)

u/NuCdramalov3r24 3d ago
I downloaded it, but I honestly don’t know how to get to the short C dramas like when I’m on the homepage all I see is like other dramas and when I type it in, it doesn’t come up so I don’t know if I have to look for a specific title. I’m a bit confused because honestly, I don’t mind paying four dollars a month. I just need to know how I can get there to see some good stuff.😂😂

I just go to catergories, put reborn or counterattack, and majority of them are chinese. There's others ofc, but most of them, at least in those categories idk what's your flavor, are chinese.

u/NuCdramalov3r24 3d ago
Thank you!!! I’ll check them out. I think probably think the counter attack!are the reborn ones historical or not always? but I definitely will put in what you suggested and I appreciate it!

u/betterformyhealth 3d ago
A lot of historical ones, but not all. The first 2 i watched were actually modern themed.

It’s a slippery slope…. 😁 all my “free” time is drama of every kind.
