The show has everything I want; a wonderful story, cute and funny scenes as well as some fighting scenes, a great cast, and many moral lessons. Also, this is one of those few dramas where I was happy with the ending. I was satisfied with all the bloopers and flashbacks playing at the end!
Do you love some action, romance, and medical thrown into a drama? Then you will probably be obsessed with Doctor Stranger throughout all 20 episodes!
This series isn't as typical as some Korean dramas are. You will understand that once you know the plot.I think Doctor Stranger has a unique storyline to it. Its plot is understandable, intriguing, and sufficient.
I recommend this series to anyone who is interested in medical dramas. But I certainly don't recommend it to people who don't like blood. Don´t expect the series to feature many heart-fluttering scenes! With that said, it made me cry and kept me wanting to binge watch the whole series.Park Hoon, a young lad from South Korea, gets kidnapped by North Korea. He is not alone as he is with his world-famous surgeon father Park Cheol, who was brought to North Korea to operate on the 'Dear Leader' dictator.

He soon falls deeply in love with a beautiful girl, but North Korea puts a target on his back. You need to watch this drama and discover how Park Hoon will escape the country, and whether he will succeed in the search for his first love! If you like tricky math games and dark manga, this drama is worth checking out. Liar Game will most likely make you curious enough about all the questions and non-answers in the show, so you will stick to it just to know the ending.I haven't read the manga or seen the Japanese version, so I can't make any comparisons. The story was interesting; the drama thrilled me and kept me guessing throughout all its tightly plotted 12 episodes!Liar Game is based on the Japanese manga of the same name. The drama revolves around contestants that take part in a reality game show called Liar Game, where regular people get the opportunity to earn millions of dollars.
The winner becomes the one who manages to cheat the others. One of the contestants is a naive girl, who wants to pay off her father's debt. She gets help from a genius swindler and former psychology professor to win the show. The show itself perfectly illustrates how it ruins the morals of a person and shows how far people can go to get money.
It's a pretty easy series to binge watch at 12 episodes. If you are looking for more brief series, check out this.
If you are looking for a drama with action, martial arts fights, a well-thought revenge plot, and romance, then give this one a shot. City Hunter is the secret identity of Lee Yoon Sung, a man whose only purpose in life is to get revenge on those who killed his father many years before. Yoon-Sung has been training for vengeance since he was a child. The young man distances himself from anyone who distracts him from his task.
Despite his best efforts, he faces a tough challenge as he develops feelings for a woman he works with.I loved how the director balanced both romance and the intrigue of revenge. I think you should give it a shot if you are a fan of action or romantic comedy series!
There were moments when the tension was just killing me. I wouldn't watch this too often since you might have a heart attack. Here's one more action drama for you to choose from. Actually, it has a little bit of everything; drama, action, romance, and mystery. Healer is the drama you should include on your watchlist simply because of its decent performances and storyline. The series tells about a star reporter who seeks the help of a spy named Healer to help him to unveil dark truth behind the people who have been ruling for too long.I loved the acting by the entire cast of Healer! This gripping and intense drama will have you on the edge of your seat and make you experience a wide range of emotions!
I loved that both male and female characters were strong. It's a solid love story without any of the expected funny love triangles. This series is definitely for you if you enjoy good action, romance, and political drama! These words will probably come to mind after you finish watching this show.
Kill Me, Heal Me is a comedy drama about a man who suffers from memory lapses and multiple personality disorder. The problems were caused by a traumatic experience in his childhood. A third-generation billionaire's personality scatters into seven different identities. Secretly, he asks for the help of a first-year psychiatry student in treating his disorder. Eventually, the girl falls in love with one of his personalities.What sets this series apart is its constant twists and turns. It was difficult for me to get bored while watching this drama since something happened in every episode!
I advise you to watch Kill Me, Heal Me if you are tired of the usual dramas with predictable plots. Moonlight Drawn by Clouds, or Love in the Moonlight as it's also often called, is a historical romance with light melodrama. It features a charismatic and lovely cast along with fantastic sets, costumes, and writing. Also, with a touch of modern humor in it, the drama is fun and playful.This series is a wonderful youth historical drama. It tells the story of a prince that falls deeply in love with a girl disguised as a eunuch.
The story tells us about the many challenges they face in order to protect their secret relationship and overcome threats to the throne. The first half focuses mainly on the romance. There´s a lot of fun with the great dynamic between the couple.
The second half centers primarily on the politics.This Korean drama completely took me in for a ride! I don't think it is an exaggeration to say that Love in the Moonlight is an exceptional coming-of-age drama. If you like this one, consider. Each story this show tells will touch you somehow and you will love each of the main characters. This drama has many things to offer.
It has the most wonderful portrayal of heartwarming friendships, and not just between prison mates.Prison Playbook is set in a prison and tells the story about a baseball player who is sentenced to jail. You will understand why he and some other characters ended up that way as you will see flashbacks from the past. The personal stories of many characters are absolutely beautiful! But remember that it's more like a comedy than a crime/law drama.I enjoyed the series, though the beginning was very vague.
In the first few episodes, I learned very little about the story and characters. Each episode tells about one particular struggle that the lead character has to go through. I saw beauty in the series as the story unfolded and I learned more about characters. If you like fantasy romances with stories that span centuries, you should give this one a try. Goblin (also known by other names including Goblin: The Lonely and Great God/Guardian: The Lonely and Great God) is an interesting ride with a fresh and unique story told beautifully throughout every episode. The drama is also visually stunning.Goblin is a fantasy drama about a modern-day goblin, protector of souls. He needs a human bride to end his cursed immortal life.
However, when the goblin finds his bride, he realizes that he doesn´t want his life to end.Goblin made me laugh and cry. I was blown away by its epic love story, spectacular bromance and romance, as well as mystery and suspense! The unique premise blended together with the mystery of the characters and unexpectedness of the drama.
Are you looking for a drama with a complex story? Watch this one and you will be stunned over how much is packed into 20 episodes! Pinocchio tells the story of a man who was terribly wronged by a cold-hearted reporter. All the man can think about is revenge.
But he suddenly develops feelings for the daughter of his enemy. The girl has Pinocchio Syndrome, which means that every time she lies, she hiccups. So she always has to tell the truth. Watch the drama and learn more about the revenge for past injustices.I found this K-drama so gripping and intelligently written that I simply didn't want it to end! First, I decided to watch this show simply because of the main theme, which is relevant today in the era of fake news and misleading headlines. I loved the brutal development of the characters, their thought-provoking decisions, and unexpected actions.
If you are looking for an intense and fast-paced mature drama with excellent acting, dialog, and comedic flourishes, you should give this melodrama a go. Woman of Dignity centers on the life of a rich family. The comfortable life of the elegant woman Woo Ah-Jin, who lives a luxurious life due to her wealthy father-in-law, slowly comes apart with the arrival of the new caretaker for the rich man.
Park Bok-Ja, the new caretaker, is a poor woman. She has deliberately entered the household of the family with a goal. Her motive is to become part of the family and lift herself out of the low class she has been in all her life.I was hooked after I learned there were two female leads in the drama! But there are also many supporting characters that each have their own interesting story.
I was glad that the series did not focus mainly on the male and female leads (which is popular and hence becomes boring), so it was a fun and enjoyable watch. If you are still looking for a fun drama that mixes romantic comedy with darker crime elements and features adorable leads with unreal levels of cuteness, then Strong Woman Do Bong Soon should be your next watch. The show has a strong heroine and an appreciative, dreamy hero.On the outside, Do Bong Soon seems to be small and fragile, but she is actually a woman with super strength handed down to her from female members of her family. She wants to keep it secret as she has fears of being considered a weirdo. One day, Ahn Min Hyuk, the CEO of a game company, witnesses her powers.
The man becomes attracted and intrigued by her. Soon he faces a threat to his life, so he decides to hire the girl as his bodyguard. The Heirs is a satisfying drama and tells the story of star-crossed lovers. You will enjoy the romance between the lead characters. Kim Tan is the rich heir to the Empire Group. He comes to the US to attend school.
While living in the States, he meets Go Eun Sang, who comes to the country with her sister with the hope of a better life. Tan meets the girl at the lowest moment of her life. His heart breaks for her and he decides to take her to his home in Korea. But surprisingly, Eun Sang's mother is a housekeeper in Tan's home. And there are even more surprises aheadThe storyline is nothing groundbreaking, but it's a fascinating new take on something everyone has watched a million times.
I like that it's modern, youthful, quirky, funny, at times romantic, and sometimes sad. It's the show for those days when you want to feel warm and comfortable. If you are a fan of fantasy melodramas, you should definitely check this one out. This drama took the world by storm at the time it was airing! So why was its popularity in Korea and around the world so huge?My Love From Another Star (also called You Who Came from the Stars) tells the story of a centuries-old alien with superpowers. He is trapped on Earth and is working as a university professor. All he can think of is how to get back home, but he changes his mind when he meets a popular actress.This K-drama has everything I could possibly want.
It has believable and charismatic leads, an evil villain, romance, comedy, melodrama, and time travel blended together. I definitely recommend My Love from the Star to big fans of sci-fi! Teleportation, time stopping—everything is presented here in a breathtaking way.
In addition, there is great chemistry between the two leads and a good sense of humor. Descendants of the Sun was a mega hit when it was on TV. It had ratings of over 40% and it won several KBS drama awards. Since the drama was produced before its airing, the storyline couldn't change depending on viewer ratings.
Apparently, that's the reason why it's only 16 episodes long, despite its huge popularity.This love story revolves around a woman who is leading a medical team that saves lives and the captain of a special forces unit that carries out secret missions. The action is set in Uruk, a fictitious country in a state of war.
They are both dealing with life and death situations every day. So will they take the risk of heart break or not?An awesome cast, nice music, a wonderful storyline, and great chemistry between the leads are not the only reason why you should give this drama a shot! I enjoyed the romance of this K-drama.
It also made me think of the sacrifices that our real-life service men and women face protecting our countries. We also have to pay more attention to the many doctors that volunteer and appreciate their work.
In my opinion, Descendants of the Sun is worthy of all the buzz and high ratings it received. The best one is not included in list.' Chicago typewriter '.if you see this drama.your standards on Kdrama will become so high.such an outstanding but underrated drama.first two episode you will be like.why i started watching this.boring.but then your entire perception is going to change.until the last episode you guys surely going to watch.

Some of the creepy, spooky drama with fantasy and romance are Soul (also known as Hon), The Master's Sun, Oh My Ghostess, Suspicious Housekeeper, Let's Fight Ghost, Arang and the Magistrate, and Gu Family Book.For romantic dramas with supernatural elements, you can check out My Love From the Star, Chicago Typewriter, A Korean Odyssey, Goblin, and My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox.For dramas with strong suspense and thriller but has a romantic love line, you can watch I Hear Your Voice, Healer, Yong Pal, The K2, Doctor Stranger, and Come and Hug Me. There are three reasons why K-dramas are so lovable and addicting:1. We always look forward to romance, romance, and romance, which is the usual hooking element in a K-drama.2.
It doesn't matter if it's about rich and poor, love triangles, gender-bender female leads, a male lead who is handsome but has a nasty character, and amnesia plots: each series has a unique love line even though the theme is cliched.3. We simply love Korean actors.
We even have the 'second male lead syndrome' because we can't afford for our 'oppa' to get hurt. We just love them so much. Here are some of the ongoing dramas that you can check out:1.
The Great Seducer- It's the talk of the K-community right now. The story is based on a novel, so it's good to read the novel and see the drama if you want to dig a deeper analysis.2. Live - A story about cops who struggle with their everyday lives. If you're looking for a realistic plot with motivational spices, then this one's for you.3. The Grand Prince - Here is another historical drama with love triangle in it. You might want to see it because the villains here are intense.4. Switch, Change the World - A hyped, cool, and chilling drama within the action genre that seems enjoyable and not boring at all.5.
Laughter in Waikiki - It's light, comical, and a good one to watch if you want to relieve heavy feelings and relax for a while. Baby Sol will let your stress wings fly away.I hope this short list will satisfy your K-drama cravings. Some of the dramas that I haven't checked yet are 'A Poem a Day' and 'That Man Oh Soo.' Have you seen it already?
Please let me know your thoughts about it! Some gender-bender dramas with female lead in disguise are:1. You're Beautiful - My all-time favorite, classy drama featuring Park Shin-Hye as a boy member of the K-pop band, A.N.Jell.2. Coffee Prince - Another great drama to watch. Yoon Eun-hye's acting as a male is totally on point!3. Sungkyunkwan Scandal - It's a great historical drama, with Park Min-Young playing a male scholar.4. Love in the Moonlight - Kim Yoo-jung enters the palace as a eunuch, but Crown Prince Park Bo-gum fell in love with her.5.
To The Beautiful You - A cheesy drama where Sulli enrolls in an all-boys school.Other dramas where girls pretend to be boys are: Ma Boy, Painter of the Wind, Nail Shop Paris, and Queen Seon Deok. There are many great Korean dramas that I haven't included in this list.
The number one drama I'll recommend is 'It's Okay, That's Love'. The story is beautiful and the characters are great! Other dramas I personally like are Korean Odyssey (it's ongoing), Fight for My Way, Hwarang, Strong Woman Do Bong Soon, Kill Me, Heal Me, Warm and Cozy, Remember: War of the Son, Love in the Moonlight, Beautiful Mind, Empress Ki, Healer, and Moon Lovers. That's it for now, I hope you like these dramas, and happy watching! Many ongoing dramas this April are cool, but the one that I anticipate the most is Switch. The exciting plot twists and characters are so vibrant that I can't hardly wait for next week to see what's next. Unpredictable and no boring scenes at all.
Plus, you have to exercise your mind to know what's under the sleeves of each character! The actors are really good as well. Jang Keun-suk perfectly fits the tricky role of a con-man and prosecutor, and Han Ye-ri is just so cool and I don't think her quick-witted character will disappoint you.
Jung Woong-in makes the perfect villain, together with Manager Kim and Cho Sung-do. Some of my favorites are:Spring Waltz, My Girl, Princess Hours, My Princess, Rooftop Prince, Sungkyunkwan Scandal, Only You, I Miss You, One Liter of Tears, Angel Eyes, Full House, He's Beautiful, Heartstrings, BOF, City Hunter, Personal Taste, Reply 1997 and 1988, The Heirs, My Love From Another Star, W, The Big Hit, Dream High 1, Strong Woman Do Bong Soon, DOTS, The Smile Has Left Your Eyes, He is Psychometric, My ID is a Gangnam Beauty, Shoppaholic King Louie, I am Not a Robot, A Gentleman's Dignity and so much moreeeeeee! Since everyone’s listing their recommendations, I figured I might as well:Dream High (only suggest season 1 because the second one was absolutely dreadful)Scarlet Heart Ryeo (forever iconic.
Even though the drama itself isn’t the most original or outstanding, all the actors bring the story to life)Hwarang (all in all a masterpiece)Kill Me Heal Me (I can rave about this one all day: beautifully written, beautifully casted, beautifully portrayed, etc.)I’m Not A Robot (for all of the Beauty and the Beast fans everywhere)Black (anyone who loves a mix of comedy, thriller and romance with phenomenal actors buckle up!)W (can’t say this one didn’t mess me up but only the good dramas do:)Boys With Flowers (okay I get it. You’re sick of hearing about F4. But you’ve got to trust me on this one! This is definitely the best adaptation of the story in my opinion!)Reply 1988 (of course i’m biased, but this show provided me with a lot of feels. Seriously this show is the best kind of rollercoaster and is a perfect detox for stress)Suspicious Partner (what? It’s a classic romcom centered around the court. Who wouldn’t want to watch it?)Lawless Lawyers (okay but like fair warning you will never recover from this show.
It’s just that good!. also lee joon gi.)Strong Woman Do Bong Soon (one of the dramas that is forever in my heart! You’ll find yourself never wanting to stop watching this drama! It’s a guaranteed laugh and you’ll love the romance. And to top it all off, it also has thriller elements)Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo (has to be in my top 10 kdrama list of all time simply because it has a ship even the largest iceberg couldn’t sink)While You Were Sleeping (you absolutely can’t miss out on this one. It’s one of the rare well rounded kdrama out there and for that reason alone, it should definitely be under your radar)These are all of the ones I could think of off the top of my head. I’ll add more later:).
IMO a newbie who has never watched a Kdrama needs to watch the old cliche classic dramas that were so sappy you just couldn’t look away. Love the new contemporary ones with more creative plots, but those weren’t the ones that put Kdrama on the map1.
Boys Over Flowers has to be #1 or they won’t appreciate it later cuz this one has EVERY cliche in the book (except gender bender)2. Coffee Prince3. Secret Garden4. My GF is a Gumiho6. You Are Beautiful7.
