Yeah, for reasons that are probably clear I mostly see the older end of it. But even then I don't get the impression the fic-writers, at least, lean that young compared to other fandoms (And most of the merch seems to be aimed at adults?) That's another one I don't really know much about, except that a lot of my late-thirties friends are into it and it's not my thing.

A lot of the biggest popular cdramas are the Chinese equivalent of fantasy or historicals, but I would say that's also the case for, historically, most of the popular Western fandoms? I'm not super into many of them but the ones I hear most about are CQL (xianxia/high fantasy), Word of Honor which I think is more wuxia/low fantasy, NiF which is historical palace drama, Guardian which is modern urban fantasy, and Sleuth of the Ming Dynasty, which is historical murder mysteries. And SVSS I guess, which is parody. I think there's censorship (and budget) issues in China as much as fandom taste which means there aren't a lot of SF ones getting out, and possibly that also applies to modern settings? Guardian has had more censorship issues than some of the others.

There are a lot of modern-day and/or not-fantasy Kdramas and Jdramas with a lot of popularity lately, though. Cherry Magic! is super huge and it's about thirtysomething salarymen. And I don't know anything about the Thai ones except that I'm starting to see Thai tags on AO3.
