Television drama series originating from Mainland China
Chinese television dramas (Chinese: 中国电视连续剧; pinyin: Zhōngguó diànshì liánxùjù), sometimes colloquially known as C-dramas, are Chinese-languagetelevision drama series originating from mainland China, sometimes including co-productions with the Greater China region. Popular drama series genres in mainland China include fantasy romance, period costume, contemporary urban and thriller dramas.[1][2] These dramas are also subjected to stringent regulatory supervision from the Chinese government.[3]
