Recently I’ve started watching Korean series and found out many of them are pretty good. Lets share and discuss them here
Squid Game - Simply amazing and the reason I’ve started watching korean dramas
All of Us Are Dead - Fast pace version of walking dead (quite good indeed)
Doctor Romantic - good show
Descendants of the Sun - good too
Rain or Shine - Left after 5 episodes as its too slow
The shorter duration of the series makes it a good choice to watch. Most of them have around 16~18hour run time total iirc. Many of the story lines are quirky or straight up weird which is a welcome change from the run of the mill soaps. My wife used to watch it a lot and got me started on it. It was good entertainment during the total lock down period. Now I watch the one or two that catch my interest from time to time. I’ve branched out to Japanese, Chinese, Taiwanese and Thai content also but feel their production quality is not up to the Korean ones.
I generally watch thriller/suspense/comedy genres, listing the one’s I can recollect
Crash landing on you - would put it in my top 10 list
Signal - Time travel
Beyond Evil - A bit dark when compared to other KDs
Bad Guys - There is a second season of this but it’s not connected to this in anyway
The main reason I started watching kdrama is this and they very rarely have multiple seasons.
Crash landing on you.
Legend of tue blue sea.
Vincenzo. These are the one’s i ve watched. All are good. And the best thing about k dramas. There is no nudity or extra crap. And it ends in 16 episodes.
My young daughter is hooked to them. Kids like them as they are quirky and funny. Mostly light rom coms. All have good home/office decors and good grooming and dressing of characters. Kids especially girls love such things.
Yes this is something really good, In Hollywood dramas people will start sleeping after couple of dates :banghead: don’t know how true is that but I find is unsettling sometimes also too much promotion of gay/lesbian culture.
