Lists of novels that were adopted to dramas

This is a list for those who want the novel details along with the visual representation of manhwa/ manhuas. I read a lot of romance and transmigration so that’ll be a constant theme. ... more>>

For reference, 

Ongoing means either the season has ended or chapter updates are very slow. But the story is moving forward. 

Updating means chapters are coming up weekly or on a regular schedule. 

Hiatus means, the story is on a long undefined break. (If the break is defined it’s ongoing) 

Complete means, main story and side stories are released. 

(Will update the status monthly)  <<less

A list of novels I’ve read throughout the years that I find to be some of the best in their respective genres. 

1. Some might be TBA dates as some dramas have not been released yet ... more>>

2. Storyline will not always be word for word, it is more prominent with xianxias 

3. released drama first, unreleased near the end.

4. Novel rating is subjective and will not be in any order.

I just thought it be nice to have a list of stories with dramas coming out :D <<less

Ghosts, cultivation, golden finger etc

Decided to start keeping track of novels that were adapted to TV dramas!... more>>

Often I ended up watching the drama before reading the books, which in some cases is good, some other times is actually bad as the story is more fleshed out in the drama itself.

I’m not going to give a review of the novel and/or drama it’s been adapted to, but I’m going to give a score based on how similar is the drama to the novel (and viceversa) based on what I’ve read.
⭐️ = significant changes to the story and the characters  ⭐️⭐️ = some changes to the some events in the story and the characters but main story plot is maintained ⭐️⭐️⭐️ = both the story and the characters remain true to the novel

Unrated novels is because I either haven't read the novel or haven't watched the drama so wouldn't be able to provide an accurate analysis. <<less

Josei (Mature) novels that seem interesting 

"Fate is really wonderful, it never waits for anyone. If you had turned back, maybe we would have started something; but if you missed an intersecting road, we would have drifted away."... more>>

Second chances/lovers reunited is my chocolate. 

They said, "love is sweeter the second time around". And I agree (just in novels tho). I love how they change/correct each mistake and better themselves for him/her so this time, the happy ending they dreamed of will come true.

Please follow the list if you have the same weird taste and do tell if you have other recommendations.

***Sorry. I'm boring so NO Yaoi, Yuri nor harem. 

Recommended novels not linked to NU. Most are less than 100 chapters including extras.. (titles and synopsis in the comment section, mtl'ed but decipherable) <<less
