Revised Kdrama New Poll To Cook. Looks like Happiness will win


Homage to Actress Yoo Sun


Its about time to start preparing for the replacement of DOTS (no i am not done filming..i am just a long term planner...lol)


If your suggestion is NOT AFFILIATED WITH THE KOREAN COMPANY TVN and Studio Dragon...PLEASE MENTION THAT as i will priotize those suggestions, We need a safe Kdrama to keep in the cylce.

For example I suggest Eve its non TVN


This Kdrama is still going on the main channel Yaboyrocklee and TVN was relentless with copyrights. (YES I HAVE A SECOND CHANNEL..it gets 1/3rd the support of the main channel per reaction so far...so will need to prop it up a bit from the main channel's status for a bit before i take the training wheels off of it)

I can write another essay...so this is plenty of info lol...i have LOTS of info i am processing that guides actions.


I suspect you will be confused about DOTS being replaced if you didn't read the previous poll so i will link it for your convenience.

Kdramas That we enjoyed very much but are not necessarily favroites and you can recommend more of the following

Alice in Boderland (Jdrama)

All Of Us Are Dead

Attorney Woo

Bloodhound

Business Proposal

Death Game (aside from finale)

Eve ( i started watching with my wife and i really like it..Please dont me mean to me about me about watching it on my own…i cant react to every thing…..i never saw folks recommending it…it has one my favorite Actresses and i like Kdramas as a regular person…so i wanted to see it and i like it..but i am not fished)

Fight For My Way

Flower of evil

My 19th life. I like it for the actress . Story is ok I watched this by myself. It’s not a show I saw a recommended and I had an actress I really liked in it so I never expected it to win a poll

Parasyte

Revenant

Shop For Killers

Squid Games

Weak Hero

Worst Of Evil



Special Category - Means these shows have elements that are GREATLY appreciated although they are not in our taste profile


Twinkling Watermelon - Great Writing (not something i'd watch again)


This is ACTUALLY A FANTASTIC SHOW... it just didn't connect with me emotionally like the others...i can't really explain why.


Goblin - ICONIC MOMENTS, good story... Felt long at times. I have no regrets because the concept of the story has stayed with me and has offered value after watching, the Grim Reaper and Sunny along with the iconic walks...were just fantastic....


Uncanny Counter - Great First Season.. GREAT....Season 2...was just Ok even though it had Grade A actors......

The Following are remarks concerning shows that didn't enter our taste profile

Strong Woman Bong Soon - Great Male Lead , funny moments. Would Not watch again

Strangers From Hell- Interesting Concept...cool

Vincenzo - Good moments.....just longer than it needed to be a lot of times, great cast

Black Knight-Nothing worth mentioning



Revised Kdrama New Poll To Cook. Looks like Happiness will win Revised Kdrama New Poll To Cook. Looks like Happiness will win

Comments

I've been rewatching "Are You Human Too" and suddenly realized, 'why haven't I thought to recommend this?' so - "Are You Human Too" - is KBS2 - non TVN & Studio Dragon - human/non human - android (can be a major turn off for some) - 18; 60 min eps - it's been divided into 36; 30 min eps on Viki (they're structured to be watched two at a time lol) - 2018 kdrama - human is the female lead - lots of humor! the silly type, exaggeration, etc. its a comedy - stress is not major, just the typical kdrama amount of drama lol - call it a rom-com - really gotta suspend your disbelief for the technology in it...(plays a major major role ahah...ha) I don't think the leads have been in anything you've seen before. Definitely some supporting characters have been in other ones though! I consider it a very easy watch, with no plot jumpscares. Plot is very predictable overall. I wouldn't consider it one of the best shows I've ever seen, but its def one of the favorites. That's how it is a lot of the times lol. I feel like I don't know where to akin it to something you've already watched...It doesn't remind of anything else. The romance isn't super romance-y, maybe due to someone being an android. It's more - cute/sweet/soulmate(?) kind of feeling imo. Others prob feel differently. Anyways, this show and a diff show called "Duel" (2017 - Scifi, non TVN/Studio Dragon - no romance, stressful, emotional, thrilling, violence, blood, yup, etc.) are both shows that I have rewatched multiple times. No idea why. Sending some love <3 (& some apology for this essay)

Jay L

Bad and Crazy (Studio Dragon Mink Entertainment) - this action comedy is about a corrupt cop whose conscience reappears in his life as an alternate personality, and helps him win back love and solve a major case. Hotel DeLuna (studio dragon) - this is a supernatural drama with romance comedy and a bit of historical flashbacks. This drama is about a hotel for ghosts that helps them move on and needs a human manager.

Man To Man mentioned? Glad someone also watched it

Ala

These are not affiliated with TVN or Studio Dragon. Healer Rugal Man to Man My Secret Terius My Love From The Star

Robyn Price

Pease watch I'm sorry I love you

Leo

All of them are not affiliated with the korean company TVN and Studio Dragon -MY LOVE FROM THE STAR Guys, really, I'm sure you guys love this show. The MCs' acting is fantastic, and above all, the character of the top actress Jun Ji-hyun is fantastic. Also, the writer of this show wrote Crash Landing on You and Queen of Tears. The drama was so popular in Korea, China, and so on that it was almost like a social phenomenon. You can trust me -SUSPICIOUS PARTNER I don't think it's as famous as the other shows, but it's still a really good show. It's a romcom based on a crime scene, with fantastic acting by the main characters, good scripts, and their chemistry. Personally, I like this the most among ML's dramas. Those are the shows I recommend as a Korean. I'm sure you won't regret it!

Gia

And it does well on youtube!

Sal

Aww maybe someday then because it's such a fantastic drama

Sal

I can hear your voice (ofc No TVN)

liz

Her private life would slap but it’s TVN unfortunately

Melinda

Would love that one too but unfortunately it’s Studio Dragons

Melinda

These are not TVN/Studio Dragon 1. The Last Empress 2. The world of the married 3. Penthouse 4. Fated to love you 5. Dream high 6. Extraordinary you 7. Oh my Venus 8. Perfect marriage revenge 9. Reborn Rich 9. Tempted 10. The Master‘s Sun 11. Vagabond

Melinda Ndlovu

Big Mouth (MBC productions) - a story about a lawyer nicknamed big mouth who gets Tangled up in the world of rich people and must use his big mouth to survive. Happiness (studio dragon, TVN)- this one made it pretty far last round of voting so I won't say too much about it. It's good. Mr. Sunshine (studio dragon, Hwa&Dam pictures) - this historical drama is a beautiful cinematic masterpiece that features a diverse and interesting cast of characters. Also made it pretty far last time.

Hwarang: the poet warrior youth is non TVN Hwarang: the poet warrior youth is non TVN Hwarang: the poet warrior youth is non TVN Hwarang: the poet warrior youth is non TVN

Alisha .

While you were sleeping is so good ,ah

gukahn

No Ofc lol, I totally understand, you gotta stick to the ones the majority wants to see obviously lol.

Fiyin Cole

I hope you can tolerate my answer and not be upset with me btw.

Rock Lee

Yeah my official policy, Since I can only cover so many shows a month is that I can watch the ones that no one ever mentions. Lol. 8 cover 2 kdramas a month and every month like 8-10 new ones come out hahaha. Its a growing deficit. Lol.

Rock Lee

im sooo happy that while you were sleeping is finally getting a solid chance to win. I hope either that or our beloved summer wins. Im sad that both cannot be watched at the same time... or can they? Let’s say our beloved summer loses this poll against while you were sleeping , can we suggest it for the next poll that will replace secretary Kim ?

koma

Damn, lowkey would have liked to see that. But I understand that it might have deemed reaction worthy. Thx for letting me know!

Fiyin Cole

Our boy rocklee did

koma

No TVN no Studio Dragon. It's KBS2 I believe. Dali and her Cocky Prince. It's one of my favourites. I loved the relationship between the leads and both the ML and the FL are great. Excellent comedy too.

Gelato

Our beloved summer!🥰

Jane Doe

Also! The Beauty Inside (2018) is one of the only romance kdramas I loved. It's on Netflix right now if I'm correct. It has a really interesting premise and the characters are cool. Adore the second couple.

gukahn

And Jun Ji Hyun <3<3

Magical Creature

Triple points for Bae Suzy love her my number on girl crush

Magical Creature

ooo Another Shopping king Louie fan <3 i love that show such a comfort show and makes me laugh so much<3<3

Magical Creature

The Whirlwind and Connection The best Korean dramas of 2024 so far Neither of them are produced by Studio Dragon. Neither of them aired on tvN. The episodes are short, the pace is fast, the plot is neat and solid (the whirlwind feels like a makjang but for those who know that real politics is worse, this won't be a problem) and the ending is perfect These won't win the vote, but I like them and recommend them.

noertap

Wait, did you guys watch see you in my 19th life?

Fiyin Cole

Weighlifting fairy Kim Bok Joo W: Two Worlds While you were sleeping

Andre

I like most comments are about same great dramas which I give my +1 too: - Healer - W: Two worlds - While You Were Sleeping

All of these are non tvN/studio dragon Tomorrow Our beloved summer King the land The good detective Move to heaven My name My country:the new age Hwarang: the poet warrior youth D*P (deserter pursuit) Suspicious partner Tree with deep roots Taxi driver W Healer Sky castle Doctor John Nobody knows Dr. Romantic What’s really a shame is that there are tons of good shows from tvN that I’d love to recommend also!

Maz Ibrahim

Yup this🫡🫡

Maz Ibrahim

Please react on w two worlds apart Or while you were sleeping episode are 60 minutes long max both have reaaly good plots.

shreya raichand

1. W: Two Worlds (MBC & not Studio Dragon) 16 ep of ~ 60min - Comedy, Romance, Fantasy, Thriller. It's kind of an interactive Isekai, I have never seen the same concept. Loooooooved it and I really hope you react to it some day ^^ 2. Shopping King Louie (MBC & not Studio Dragon) 16 ep of ~ 60min - Comedy, Romance, Life, Drama. Really funny at times and a confort watch for me. 3. Healer (KBS2 & not Studio Dragon) 20 ep of ~ 60min - Action, Thriller, Romance. I love both leads and I rewatched it so many times in the first few years that some scenes are still crystal clear in my memory lol 4. SKY Castle (jTBC & not Studio Dragon) 20 ep of ~ 75min - Mystery, Psychological, Drama, Family, Social commentary. Due to the subject matter it was quite dark at times but it was also really gripping. I remember binge watching the 20 ep in 3 days. I haven't seen it in a long time and i'm totally down to watch your reaction to it! 5. Legend of the Blue Sea (SBS but Studio Dragon unfortunately) 20 ep of ~ 60min - omedy, Romance, Fantasy and a bit of Thriller. A really really fun watch. The female lead (Jun Ji Hyun) is both gorgeous and hilarious. I hope you react to it some day, even if it ends up being only on Patreon.

Neroli

Crash course in Romance and Doom at your service are from Studio Dragon if I'm not mistaken.

Neroli

I enjoyed watching it, but it was quite stressful and really sad at times... So in the end, it's personally not a drama I particularly want to see other people react to... Not sure how well it would do i a poll.

Neroli

Also The King Eternal Monarch.

Zainab Khan

Guys I am saying HEALER! Please the plot is so thick and is recommended by so many people. It is the OG drama of us old kdrama fans 😭 and it’s not related with tvn and studio 🐉. Next is While you were sleeping

Zainab Khan

Yessss!!!

Zainab Khan

Just PLEASE! HEALER !!!!! 😭😭

Non TVN: While You Were Sleeping ❤️

Marvelous JJ

yes, it is from TvN but at least it is NOT from Studio Dragon

john kennedy

The Atypical Family 🤞

8man

"One Ordinary Day" - is COUPANG TV - non TVN & Studio Dragon - original network COUPANG - 8 episodes (60-ish min each) - never seen reactions for it so I don't know how strict they are with copyright ... - 2021 - mainly recommending this since main dude [Kim Soo Hyun] is lead in Queen of Tears and IOTNBO - definitely a stressssful show though haha - mystery, thriller(?), crime, legal - that kind of vibe. - non romance...plot is really taken up with all the mystery and such - has good ratings, but def not as popular as DOTS or IOTNBO. If not for a reaction, would recommend watching anyway! Especially since its on the shorter side for a kdrama lol.

Jay L

non-TVN shows I highly recommend 1. Extraordinary You (MBC)- has a unique plot. main female lead is im sol from lovely runner. 2. Perfect Marriage Revenge (MBN)- revenge story done right. the chemistry between the leads was great too. 3. Dreaming of a Freaking FairyTale (TVING)- funny, romantic, cheesy at times romcom. the show's biggest draw for me was the insane chemistry between the two leads. my god i love them together on screen. 4. Signal - fast-paced, action mystery police-based, investigative drama, with a twist. season 2 was just announced a month or two ago. 5. Girl from Nowhere- (Thai, GMM, NETFLIX)- episodical mystery-thriller. it has a very unique, unconventional way of telling its story. it digs at the modern high school societal issues and its implications. this was one of the more important watch i've had recently obviously because of the subject matter that they addressed. also, thai production companies are usually lax with reactions so i'm positive it is going to be a safe watch.

CrYan

Agreed👌🏻👌🏻

Artemis VMin Jackson

Oooo Perfect Marriage Revenge is so good they would enjoy it

M

Non TVN and non studio dragon I can recommend, Big Mouth it’s a 16 episodes on Hulu ( it’s a suspense, crime drama) Summer Strike is 12 episodes on Netflix (it’s a coming of age, healing with mystery), Reborn Rich is a 16 episodes on Viki (it’s a isekai revenge family drama) has the lead actor from Vincenzo The Good Bad Mother it’s 16 episodes on Netflix (it’s a family, comedy, mystery, justice) the lead actor is the doctor from the glory

Anah!

btw for reply 1988 i don't recommend u guys to watch it from netflix bcs they blurred so many things and cut the drama so many times too. so maybe if it's win the poll or anything or u guys wnted to watch it, watch it in viki or other website or maybe idk i watch kdrama from bilibili HAHAHHAHAH but it's good the quality is good

dalnim

D. P it's not studio dragon. It's not too short too cause it has 2 seasons now

Intania Aisha

unfortunately this is tvn but i swearr it's rlly good like rlly. mainly slice of life + romcom kdrama. •REPLY 1988 (20 ep) this is a drama that is worth a thousand smile. it relates to real-life situation like each of the family in this drama. you guys can feel all the emotions u can while watching it. the sixth highest rated drama in Korean cable television history and highest rated television drama at the time of airing. •HOSPITAL PLAYLIST S1&S2 (12 ep each so there's 24 ep) top tier hospital kdrama.good plot, believable characters, ideal landscape setting with an OST that makes everything fit together like magic. it's rlly worth watching i've been rewatching this (full ep )so many times like every ep is just so so greatt rlly nothing would bored u guys promisee. • PRISON PLAYBOOK (16 ep). a slice of life drama set in a prison. sooo funny yet so honest in it's potrayal of heavy subjects. but also this isn't gonna make u stress it's so good rllyy. •HOMETOWN CHA-CHA-CHA (16 ep) romcom slice of life too. one of Netflix's most-watched non-English television shows, and one of its longest-running hits as it spent 16 weeks in global top ten rankings. a very refreshing kdrama. now this one is NON TVN it's from jtbc and in case you guys would like to watch another kim ji won's drama i rlly recommend •MY LIBERATION NOTES (16 ep) slice of life too. Raw, real, emotionally charged live wire of a drama that feels like home. My Liberation Notes is powerful in its simplicity. i love this drama there's so many things that u can relate. maybe it can be slow for some ppl but for me it's rlly realistic and i rlly love it. done. all of these kdramas i've rewatching it for so many times and still love it so muchh. sorry it's too long :⁠^⁠)

dalnim

Suspicious Partner is non tvn

Tisha

"Youth of May" - is KBS - non TVN & Studio Dragon - original network KBS - 12 episodes (60-ish min each) - 2021 Kdrama - male lead is [Lee Dohyun] the Glory's male lead, & the glasses dude from Sweet Home - female lead is [Go Minsi] the glasses dude's (step) sister from Sweet Home - It is on Viki - healthy relationship between leads - the drama has a beautiful & sweet romance that is very forefront of the plot - not a romcom though...very much a drama & w/some forbidden love(?) - is definitely sad at times & definitely sweet at times It's a pretty popular show, but I haven't seen any reactions to it - people would probably show up for it? sorry the details I have on it aren't all that great - haven't seen it since 2021 lol. I just remember loving it and its story. It's also funny how the Sweet Home (step) siblings are a couple pairing in this show.

Jay L

These are NOT TVN and NOT STUDIO DRAGON: While you were sleeping (16 eps), W Two Worlds (16 eps), Welcome to samdalri (16 eps), and Angels last mission: love (32 eps)

mari

Healer non tvn Suspicious partner non tvn Pinocchio non tvn 🤩🤩🤩

Jemima Kitumaini

While You Were Sleeping is amazing! This KDrama really needs a resurgence (even though Viki continues to advertise the hell out of that show, for good reason)

J Man

As far as non TvN and Studio Dragon... I'll continue to double down on While You Were Sleeping. It has mystery, supernatural stuff, and Bae Suzy (the lead singer from Miss A). Double points for Bae Suzy

J Man

Unfortunately this is TvN, but I would still like to recommend Start Up in terms of both popularity and messy love triangle (messy in an entertaining way). I was apprehensive at first when checking it out, but it ended up being one of my all time favorite KDramas because of the acting

J Man

The world of the married - non TVN and its on netflix. This one has highest viewership rating in JTBC(broadcasting station)

john

I would love to see them react to it!!

M

While you were sleeping pleaseeee it's a non TVN drama and it's amazinggggg

Non TVN While you were sleeping

I recommend Startup. -business/office romance -running time per ep: 1hr - 1hr 20mins -viewers on yt per other channels: 10k - 40k casts: Nam joo hyuk, Bae Suzy, Kim Seon Ho, Kang Hanna This was a controversial kdrama back in pandemic days Hope you would consider this. It is from TVN BUT THIS DRAMA IS NOT FROM STUDIO DRAGON.

MY LOVE FROM THE STAR (Not studio dragon/TVN) … let’s give our boy Kim Soo-Hyun some love too

I second weightlifting fairy, it's cute and lighthearted

strange& sleepless

True beauty. It's a TVN drama unfortunately. But it's getting an anime adaptation so my hyperfixation on it came back a little recently. I don't see it being suggested too much on here but it is really really popular even now 4 years after it aired so i'm very curios to see how it would do in a poll. I'm also in the mood for a fun drama.

Not a drama, but a movie, 'Extreme Job'! It does great on the YT side

Save Me. I see many people recommend it already and it's so intriguing, the main actress is the same for It's okay not to be okay and the plot is one that would make your blood boil! It's about a cult so it's not a cliché one. I think it fits with your reaction channel and it's not a tvn drama either.

our beloved summer ❤️❤️❤️

I second while you were sleeping

koma

Not TV or studio dragon: - While you were sleeping- rom com but with mystery, suspense and a little super natural thrown in. Great character development. - Healer- lead actress is from marry my husband and secretary kim. Rom com, action, suspense. - Extraordinary you - lead actress from lovely runner. Fun story line in school setting with an interesting twist. - you who came from the stars - main actor is from it's ok to not be ok and lead actress is the lead in the Kingdom Zombie drama (not the series but the movie prequel). It's a rom com, comedy, thriller with scif elements. Older drama but one of the highest rated.

ddm

our beloved summer for the win

koma

You Can Watch Hometown Cha Cha Cha

Deepankar Raha

Our beloved summer is not a tvn drama. While you were sleeping is my second suggestion. Its also not a tvn drama

koma

Hometown Cha Cha Cha is wonderful, and wholesome. I usually pitch people to watch Cha Cha Cha after Start-Up though, because it serves as a good unofficial "alternate ending" for "Good Boy" from Start-Up

J Man

A fun and sad KDrama, non TvN, I would like to throw into the hat is Uncontrollably Fond. It's about an actor who's about to die from a condition to the point where he sorta just wants to go YOLO on life. It also follows a female reporter who wants to get him into a documentary (Played by the wonderful Bae Suzy).

J Man

Interest in Signal has started to pop up again. Peeps have been waiting for a season 2 since 2016 and the production company finally confirmed that they're currently filming a 2nd season.

J Man

It's okay that's love (SBS) (not to get mixed with It's okay not to be okay) Welcome to waikiki (JTBC) (Just pure comedy) Because this is my first life (Sadly TvN) (Rom-com) Mr. Sunshine (Sadly TvN but a masterpiece)

Sammy 123

None of these are tvn production... 1. Extraordinary You (mbc) 2. Dali and the cocky prince (kbs) 3. The legend of the blue sea (sbs)

Not CJ(TvN) nor Studio Dragon: 1) Move to Heaven [2021, ep10, Drama, Slice of Life], 2) Juvenile Justice [2022, ep10, Thriller, Noir, Crime], 3) Narco-Saints [2022, ep6, Crime, Action], 4) The Frog [2024 (Aug), ep8, Thriller, Mystery], 5) Sky Castle [2019, ep20, Thriller, Family], 6) Lovestruck in the city [2021, ep17, Romcom], 7) Our Beloved Summer [2021, ep16, Romcom], 8) My Liberation Notes [2022, ep16, Rom, Human], 9) Good Bad Mother [2023, ep14, Family, Rom], 10) Lies Hidden in my Garden [2023, ep8, Mystery, Thriller], 11) The Kidnapping Day [2023, ep12, Mystery, Thriller], 12) The Atypical Family [2024, ep12, Fantasy, Romcom] So the above are ones that went viral or got to the top viewing rates in Korea and some of the countries (also easy to watch on Netflix). They have very unique, interesting, and fun storylines so I'm positive you'll all enjoy watching these. Btw, I also left out some of the historical dramas as I assumed you might be more interested in present timeline plots 😆😆 Plus, I haven't added quite a lot that were aired outside Netflix 🙈

1. Suspicious partner, 2. Welcome to Samdalri, 3. While you were sleeping

M

Save Me (OCN, 16ep,60min) Bitter Sweet Hell (MBC, 12ep,60min) D*P (Netflix OG, 12ep, 50min) S.I.T.R/Something In The Rain (JTBC, 16ep, 75min)

Mochi

I also suggest "Something in the Rain" Explores the romance between a woman in her mid-thirties and her younger brother’s friend. It delves into themes of societal expectations, age differences, and personal growth. The drama combines romance with elements of melodrama and focuses on the characters' emotional journeys.

Idk if anyone suggested “Snowdrop” before, but I liked that one 👍🏻 It has Jisoo from Blackpink, but her acting wasn’t for me 👀 Main actor is so good at expressing emotions! Storyline was good, and falls under the genres of romance, historical drama, and melodrama, with elements of political intrigue.

YESSSS!! I love hometown cha cha cha

Thank you for noticing. I also tend to focus on 1 or 2 people that commented first saying something personal lol. So we get a quality interaction rather than me mindlessly answering people. Today i can say i gave one person my best. Today it was Dawood haha

-Shopping King Louie (MBC drama) one of my fav funny kdramas that show is the best for shits and giggles also the plot is so good would recommend as a watch to everyone it has the main dude from Death Game Seo in guk love that man his shows are top tier. -While You were sleeping (SBS) is an amazing show. One of my favorites, Queen Bae Suzy, is in it. I love her and everything. Also it has Lee Jong Suk, another big korean actor whose shows always deliver. -Extraordinary You (MBC) Fun drama. I love the plot and the characters. Our girl Hyeyoon (Sol) is in this and other amazing actors. -100 days My prince is a stellar show with a top cast from leads to supporting it has the girl from My Name. -Dream High (KBS drama) the first one i just wanna see yall cringe it's an oldie about kids dreaming to be kpop idols it has one of the most iconic cast to date from our main dude from Queen of tears to the villain in Vincenzo and one of the top actresses these days Suzy and IU. The story is good but it's so laughable sometimes and it's just a fun cringe time. I kinda want y'all to go through the cringe all the kdrama fans back in the days went through together also all the actors got a huge popularity and it kick started their respective careers. -My Love From the Star This show is one of the OG kdramas it has Kim Soo hyun our lead from Queen of tears and Jun Ji Hyun a top actress who is beloved this show is a must watch for kdrama fans it has so many iconic lines and characters this was soooo famous back then it created a huge wave of craze and catapulted Kim soo hyun as the highest paid actor (which he still is) and Jun ji hyun became the highest paid actress. The popularity of this show cant be explained. It was huge. -Reply/Replay series (94,88,97) another iconic bunch the reply/replay series tells about Korea during those times from late eighties to the 2000 according to the year you guys will pick . It’s so interesting to see what Korea was like and how pop culture was like during that era. They do tackle heavy subjects here and there but it’s mostly about family and friendships and then the mystery of how they ended up as adults and so on would recommend 10000/10000 and it’s fun to see some mention about historical events and celebrity moments that we already know is going to happen and to kinda see how they reacted to it back then. -Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo (MBC drama) is another fun watch. I love the chemistry of the leads. The banter they have is so funny and just a fun time. Also many iconic lines I still quote to this day. -Dr romantic(SBS drama has 3 seasons) is a really good medical drama, one of my favorites and the cast is stellar again from main to side characters. Sorry for the long list<3

I wouldn't have felt ignored if you hadn't replied. But not only did you reply, but you also followed up with two other comments. This just confirms to me how much you care about your audience. All the love to you <3

No worries. I was just curious, and I totally understand what you're saying. Enjoy whatever you want to enjoy. I too tend to avoid stressful shows but most of my friends keep recommending those to me XD I just wanna watch my rom-coms in peace ;-;

Dawood Al Omary

One the woman, not by Studio or TVN, body swapping drama with a twist. Extra-ordinary you, not by studio or TVN, same actress as lovely runner, very unique kdrama concept and entertaining! I have a kdrama rec but for Lee specifically as I think you’d enjoy it the most, so I think you’d enjoy this in your own time. ‘Hi bye, mama’ is a really heartfelt drama about a woman who follows her daughter around as a ghost, and is then given a second chance at life. It’s TVN so maybe not a Channel reaction, but I personally feel like it’s something you would resonate with as a father. It was the best drama of the year for me.

Ironically I’m way more likely to engage in a personal sidenote and remember that we had this conversation. And overtime these interactions make your suggestions also stand out more which would enhance my memory. Thank you for your time

And we root for the opposite characters in the shows we watch lmaoooo

Rock Lee

Just being polite so you know I read the comments, I get way too many suggestions for me to keep track of. So I only focus on the ones I’m asking for at that particular moment. My wife watches C dramas and I happen to watch with her. She has her own tastes and it’s different from mine. She wont finish QOT but Likes EVE way more. She likes the historical Asian Dramas or ones i find highly stressful. Lol. . I generally go with the flow. Whatever she is watching lol (like these reactions). On my own. I go all over the place. Random underrated kdrama, star warss, my ordinary family, because when i watch TV by myself. I am still working or something. I don’t pay attention to the whole show. I’ll share an experience but i cant take in all the suggestions i get because i get more than i can actually watch even on my own. And i just read. So just like i forget character names. Lol. I wont remember what was suggested. If dozens of people say the same thing. I evidently i will remember. If you say a trigger word like Kim Ji won. Than i have a higher chance of remembering because i am passionate about that and i am actively open to that. I hope the answer satisfies you and you don’t feel ignored Because I read what you are saying and I may respond accordingly

Rock Lee

Yes 🙌🏾 👍🏾

Kiana

Beyond Evi (JTBC) and The Guest are gorgeous kdramas with interesting plots.

gukahn

Lovestruck in the City is also good.

Move to Heaven! Such heartbreaking and emotional one. Made me cry on multiple occasions.

gukahn

Move to Heaven Girl From Nowhere (Thai - GMM Studios Int. - Netflix) The Atypical Family

Khadijah

i second all suggestions for Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo (MBC). i dont think you know any of the leads but its very funny and lighthearted, with a unique storyline imo.

Kaydee

I'd recommend Hotel del Luna. It's a TvN production though so I'll recommend Our Beloved Summer too as a non-TvN safety option (it's SBS & It's popular too anyway). Already said why I recommend both in previous comments but let me know if you want the rationale again👍

Emanuel

Lovestruck in the city - got Kim JI Won and JI Chang wook as mains. also Suspicious Partner - Ji chang wook in that also

I just realized that all my favorite series are from tvN ;-; So, I'll just recommend my favorite which is Hospital Playlist which is by Netflix and tvN. Both seasons are in the top ten on mydramalist. Side note for Lee. Were you able to check any of the C-dramas I recommended last time or were they lost in the sea of notifications you get. Just wondering. I know you're busy with all the reactions you've been putting out. Much love <3

W two Worlds (MBC TV) It’s an action thriller/ romcom

Efua Adadzewa

Hi guys, I’m new to the community, but I would like to suggest Café Minamdang. it's from KBS/Netflix sure NOT AFFILIATED with TVN or Studio Dragon. The show has a combination of comedy, crime and romance. I think the trio would like the show.

linlin

Weighlifting fairy Kim Bok Joo is a good one as a romcom. It’s from MBC channel, so it must be safe

nurlyaiiym

It's TVn production 😭

Hayikyu

Extraordinary You: (MBC TV] Tomorrow: (MBC TV) Sky Castle: (JTBC TV)

Another recommendation is The K2 Love story wasn’t for me, but other aspects was firee for me!

1 Miss Night and Day 2 My Sweet mobster 3 W two worlds From what I can see, none of them are connected to TvN or Studio Dragon

Rayyane Lala

I reckon you should replace DOTS with another similar Kd like action And wait for another Romcom after WWWSK Nothing but love 🙌🏽

Maz Ibrahim

18 again(JTBC) or Our beloved summer(SBS)

Shalini Sinha

I recommend Healer.. Great storyline, romance, action, funny as it should be, and about friends, some secrets from the past. It’s from KBS2, I guess it’s safe. And finally with Secretary Kim and Worst of evil’s ML as the main leads. He’s great at playing action dramas 👍🏻 and she is so cute here and so different from her other roles that you’ve seen so far :)

nurlyaiiym

Love weightlifting fairy 🧚‍♀️
