One of the best Asian stories is 'The Tale of Genji' from Japan. It's often considered the world's first novel. It offers a detailed look into the Heian period's court life, with complex characters and their relationships. Another great one is the Ramayana from India, which is not only a religious epic but also a story full of moral lessons, heroism and the battle between good and evil. And then there's 'The Water Margin' from China, which tells the story of 108 outlaws and their fight against corruption and injustice.

It's a story that explores themes of love, fate, and the power of forgiveness. It has been adapted into various forms of art in South Asia and beyond.

One of the best Asian short stories is 'The Gift of the Magi' by O. Henry, which has Asian - influenced settings and themes. Another great one could be some works from Japanese author Haruki Murakami like 'The Elephant Vanishes'. And there are also classic Chinese short stories such as those from Pu Songling's 'Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio' which are rich in Asian cultural elements.

One popular Asian drama love story is 'Boys Over Flowers' from South Korea.

Another is 'Meteor Garden' which is a Taiwanese version of a similar story. Also, 'Hana Yori Dango' from Japan is a well - known love story in the Asian drama world.

For Asian love stories, 'Love in the Moonlight' is a great choice. It's a Korean drama set in a historical backdrop with beautiful costumes and a compelling romance. Another one is 'You Are the Apple of My Eye', a Taiwanese film that depicts the innocent and heartfelt love of youth. 'One Day' from Thailand is also wonderful, showing the complexity and beauty of love over time.

One of the best books with Asian stories is 'The Joy Luck Club' by Amy Tan. It tells the stories of four Chinese immigrant mothers and their American - born daughters. Through a series of vignettes, it delves into themes like mother - daughter relationships, cultural identity, and the immigrant experience.

One of the best Asian novels is 'The Tale of Genji' from Japan. It's often considered the world's first novel. It gives a detailed look into the Heian court life, with complex characters and their relationships. The writing is very elegant and it has had a profound influence on Japanese literature and culture.

One common theme could be the exploration of cultural values within the context of love and relationships. For example, in many Asian cultures, family values play a significant role. So in these stories, characters might struggle between their own desires for love and the expectations of their families. Another theme could be the idea of sacrifice for love, where a character gives up something important like a career opportunity in another country to be with their loved one.

I think this kind of topic is inappropriate and may be disrespectful. We should focus on positive and respectful storytelling.
