Rooftop Prince 屋塔房王世子
I love Korean dramas with ancient/ historical time settings. Rooftop Prince has historical and modern settings combined. Another time travel story. The mystery behind it was a shocker when it unraveled. The casts are super adorable :)

Scarlet Heart 步步惊心
Last February break this Chinese drama was aired on Channel 8, Singapore, but I only managed to catch the middle part of this 35-episode drama. It got me addicted, so this time back I got the DVD.
Another time travel story again. A modern lady Zhang Xiao 张晓 woke up after an accident only to find herself in the body of a Manchurian teenage girl, Ruo Xi 马尔泰若曦. Without any way to go back, she grew up and lived the life of Ruo Xi, becoming a lady of the court. This drama is a.k.a startling by each step, as Ruo Xi struggles to survive life in the palace, a treacherous place for a non-submissive woman with modern day thinking.

The Moon embracing the Sun 拥抱太阳的月亮
Another Korean historical drama series. Haha. Told you I love them. Plus the male lead who plays the King is one of my favourite actors - Kim Soo Hyun! The guy who plays Song Sam Dong in Dream High, another of my favourite dramas. This time round, the female lead happens to be a female shaman, and there's the element of black magic in this drama. Which makes it kinda different from other dramas. I was tearing to some scenes too.

To the Beautiful You 致美丽的你
It is the Korean version of Hanakimi, following its predecessors, the Taiwanese and Japanese counterparts. Compared to the Taiwan version, 花样少年少女, the storyline is almost identical, just that I feel that most of the actors and actresses in the Korean version are better looking [my personal opinion], expect the male lead and the dog. Wu Zun and Yi Ci Lang still win hands down.
It is still airing in Korea, and the remaining episodes will not be released in time before I go back to India. Sigh.

Faith 信义
Just realised that 信义 rhymes with 行医. ANOTHER TIME TRAVEL DRAMA. And a historical one as well. Just that instead of the Joseon era, the setting happens to be the Goryeo dynasty. Played by Lee Min Ho and Kim Hee Sun. A warrior, Choi Young travels to the future, a place he mistook as Heaven, and brought back a cosmetic surgeon Yoo Eun Soo and brings her to the Goryeo era to heal the Queen. And love blooms between the two as Young tries to protect her from evil-plotters who want to take over the Kingdom, and at the same time he tries to fulfill his promise to send her back to where she belongs.
This is also currently airing in Korea.
