Brain Rot Fodder (Lowkey Romances)

The following are lowkey, decent budget, usually under the radar dramas that give you different degrees of fluff & feed the procrastination. 

I'm only adding shows I've watched & enjoyed. Don't watch these if you're looking for cinematic masterpieces. 

Only watch if you need to turn off your brain for a while. Might include 'skip watches' aka knnown as FF dramas., where you just hit the skip 10 button every few minutes.

    1. The Romance of Hua Rong

    Chinese Drama - 2019, 24 episodes

    Cute Chemi between the main cp. Fun characters. It has some frustrating tropes but nevertheless hits the itch if you like watching period pieces w/ lots of fluff and fewer politics.

    The best chemi I've seen from an onscreen couple in a while. A typical rich man working hard woman romcom but with Mega fluff that is somehow not cringey at all. Highly rec

    Chinese Drama - 2021, 32 episodes

    7.0

    Cute workplace-based fluffy story. On the longer side but the eps go by fast. the Lead actress does a good job of being naive & young w/o being annoying

  • The Wolf Princess

    10. The Wolf Princess

    Chinese Drama - 2021, 24 episodes

    7.5

    The lure is iffy so don't read too deep into that, but still very watchable. Not as much romance as there was an adventure. The story is nicely written so everything makes sense.

    11. Koi wa Tsuzuku yo Doko Made mo

    Japanese Drama - 2020, 10 episodes

    Japanese dramas r typically overexaggerated in an anime-type of way so fair warning. I enjoyed the fluff. The ML is very fine. The FL did very well in her delivery, super lovable.

    15. Why Women Love

    Chinese Drama - 2022, 24 episodes

  • Mysterious Love

    16. Mysterious Love

    Chinese Drama - 2021, 16 episodes

    7.5

    There is something lacking in the overall production & the acting is average. But i think the idea and story aren't the usual brain rot plot so it makes it fun and new w/o being too serious

  • Legally Romance

    17. Legally Romance

    Chinese Drama - 2022, 33 episodes

    18. To Fly with You

    Chinese Drama - 2021, 35 episodes

    Haven't enjoyed brain rot content in a while but RR changed that. The min amount of dubbing along with a decent script and great acting really made this binge enjoyable.

    Most brainrot show of the yr.  loved the whole concept of the 'animal world' and the acting is fun but they dragged the biggest plot point forever. Still a good binge. Nice bgm

    Well-made brainrot with decent acting and a nice budget. The story is nothing new. Just want you to need for a binge weekend in. + Pretty people on screen. Doesn't get any better than that.

    The only body swap drama I have watched and enjoyed! I did the "men realize women have it hard" trope tastefully. Great acting, basic plot, and good chemistry!

    Chinese Drama - 2023, 24 episodes

    I usually don't like Brainrot which has too many characters. But the structure of this drama was well done. You can follow each story easily & you love the characters quick. Nice watch~

  • As Beautiful as You

    24. As Beautiful as You

    Chinese Drama - 2024, 40 episodes

    She is a skip watch more than brain rot. Leads chemistry is enough & I'm really only recommending this because the breakup scene was phenomenal. Great for when bored & need a binge fix.

  • Go Back Lover

    25. Go Back Lover

    Chinese Drama - 2024, 24 episodes

    7.5

    I was much more invested in this show then I expected to be. The cast is on a dating show + there were so many plot points that were not on my bingo card. Cute couples, fun watch.
