I remember seeing some taiga raiting with RYOMADEN on top of the list, so of course it has to be season's winner. But besides that I see no masterpieces.
It saddens me to say it, but 2000s only had technological breakthrough for dorama, no quality breakthrough up until the every end, so followed same tendencies as 1990. Good to have a small masterpiece finally - News Sokuho wa Nagareta . Hello, 2010s.
So few titles start in last year's season, so again no masterpieces. Guess Hatachi no Koibito was not bad. Looking back at 2007, the only thing that evolved was Korean historical action drama, but it's way behind taiga still.
