So you’ve had your fill of Korean dramas and you’re
ready to venture into the blossoming world of Chinese dramas. Well, you’re in
the right place!
The C-drama world is just as exciting and diverse,
filled with action, romance, and period dramas that make for a refreshing watch
from our usual Netflix favorites. In fact, if you’re looking for titles to add
to your Netflix binge list, add The Untamed, Word of Honor, Put Your Head on
my Shoulder, Go Go Squid, and Use For My Talent right now and you can
thank us later.
But while C-dramas are equally compelling for their
plot and storytelling, it’s hard to say we’re not also there for the swoon-worthy
men that we’d like to root for.
So if K-dramas have heart-stopping oppas, we
are happy to tell you that you’ll find an equivalent gege in many
C-dramas.
In Chinese culture, gege is much like the
word oppa, since it also means “older brother.” And in the same vein, when
this term is used by a woman to call another man, it means more than its translation.
The term signifies closeness and, most often, a flirtatious bid for their attention.
Whether you’re a C-drama newbie looking for a primer of the
most handsome and popular Chinese actors now, or you just want to check out if
your favorite has made it to our ultimate gege list, prepare to be
treated to a gallery of beautiful faces (and bodies!) that will brighten and
uplift your mood.
