Good Asian Dramas (104)

I posted this on 4chan, which of course was totally useless. Maybe 4ch, which is infinitely more wise will have something to better to say, or even recommend me a drama that I would like.

I've tried to like J-drama, I have, but I can't. Every time I want to get into a J-drama I get barraged with bad acting, asinine story lines (Hey look, Character X fell in love, but guess what he has a terminal disease!, etc.), and over the top nonsense. Oh, and please don't say GTO, I saw the first ep, and I never want to see another one.

Isn't there any J-drama that takes itself seriously, features a talented cast, has something insightful to say. I can't believe that the only thing on Japanese television that isn't a complete waste of time are the cartoons.

I guess what I'm looking for is a live action equivalent of the Honey & Clovers and Kare Kanos, or even the Monsters, and the Kino no Tabis.
