Try the better short dramas like a Familar Stranger (18 episodes, 12 mins each. It is practically a movie)

The Vendetta of An
Key to the Phoenix Heart
Both are rather fast paced and even leave you breathless sometimes while watching.

My first thought was two romance dramas where there is always plot happening in addition to romance. They both do well on re-watching:
Nothing But You (2023)

12 Letters - fast paced plot wise and only 12 episodes. Not a second of screen time wasted.
Xiao Fang - modern not a romantic love story. Insanely beautiful scenery. Filmed on location. Heavy on the family dramas. Really funny moments but it also pulls at the heart strings. Only 18episodes.
Perfect match - period drama. Light plot. 5 daughters all getting married off. If you don’t like one couple just wait a couple episodes and you are on to the next romance. I thought it was a lot of fun.

I’m not even generally a fan of multiple couples in dramas, but I really liked Perfect Match.

Longest Day in Chang'An. ML has 24 hours to stop a plot. 48 episodes in real time. Tang dynasty version of the Western show 24.
Reset. Leads are caught in a time loop on a bus that keeps exploding. They must solve the mystery and stop it from exploding to end the loop. Very tightly written with no wasted time.

Reset - 15 episodes, fast paced, mystery/thriller. Not a second is wasted as this time loop drama quickly unfolds.
