I have been a longtime watcher of kdramas. My interest in them ebbs and rises throughout the year.
Recent favourite of mine are Kingdom, All of us are Dead and Goblin.
I plan to watch Vincenzo and Our Beloved Summer next.

I'm watching a K-Drama right now!!
My favourites are extraordinary you, true beauty, and strong woman do bong-soon.
I actually initially started watching Asian dramas with the c-drama Love o2o, though, which remains one of my favourites to this day

Have you watched Train to Busan yet? It's a very intriguing movie, draws you in with every scene. I highly recommend.

Also, a few years ago I was watching Descendants o the Sun, a series, I never got to finish it but the arts I watched were a hit.

I'm a fan of k-drama, especially the zombie and supernatural genres.
Recently I've seen a lot of movies like;
All of us are dead
Hellbound
Ghost Doctor
Blue Birthday
Bulgasal
Home sweet home
Sell your hunted house
Reflection of you

I just can't stop watching.

I absolutely love K-Dramas but I haven't had much time to watch them lately, these are my top 3 so far:
1. Descendants of the Sun
2. Vincenzo
3. Hundred days my Prince

I'm a huge fan of Song Joong Ki and EXO so my list may be a bit biased but I really do enjoy the storyline, jokes, and acting skills in these K-Dramas.

I also enjoy thriller movies so if you have any good K-Dramas to recommend under this genre, please share them with me! :tiphat:

Mee, I recently watched Business Proposal on Netflix, and I deeply loved it. I love Kdrama because of the fantastic character.

I live and breathe K-drama, really. It's difficult to lay down three of my favorites, but off of the top of my head, they're:

1) While You Were Sleeping
2) Pinnochio
3) Boys Over Flowers

I think Kdrama excels mainly in romance and making real life situations seeming fun or magical.

I don’t really watch K-dramas, but there was one I loved. The Doctors I think.
