About HaveDrama

HaveDrama is a neutral, cross-platform reference database of micro-dramas (short vertical dramas), published by an independent company. The same published rules apply to every title, and nothing on the site is sponsored or paid for.

What this site is

HaveDrama records where each micro-drama can be watched, what it is called on each app, how many episodes it has and how many are free when the app shows it, the unlock model of each app and, when prices are verified, the estimated cost to finish, how it ranks week after week on each app’s own chart, and which genres and tropes it belongs to. For a part of the catalogue, an editorial analysis of the first free episodes adds structured scores.

We do not host or stream video. Every watch link goes to the official app or site that lists the title. We cover the English-language micro-drama apps whose public catalogues we can verify; apps we do not yet track have a page, but no catalogue.

How it is run

  • Charts, scores, best-of lists, similarity and the index gate are computed by the formulas published on the editorial policy page, identically for every title. There is no boost, no override and no exception for any app, studio or partner.
  • There are no sponsored or featured modules anywhere on the site: every chart, list and module is organic.
  • We sell no positions in rankings or lists, and no payment can index, hold or remove a record.

The full set of rules is the editorial policy.

What is different here

  • Cross-app titles. The same drama is often listed under different names on different apps. We link those listings into one record and show every known title, so a search for any of them lands on the same page.
  • Cost to finish. For each app we record the free episodes, the unlock model (coins, subscription, ads) and, as pricing data is verified, the estimated cost to reach the last episode. Until a price is verified the page says “not yet known” rather than guessing.
  • Chart history. Weekly charts per app since July 2026, built from the counters each app displays publicly and kept permanently: rank, change, weeks on chart and peak for every title, every week.

Named editor
