Upcoming C-dramas in March and April 2017

Legend of Chusen Season 2

 

With General and I and Eternal Love out of the picture, the c-drama scene has quieted down significantly and probably won’t pick up until after a few months when costume dramas return for the summer. As there aren’t many dramas that I’m dying to share, I’ve combined some shows for the next two months.
