Anyone who's into K-drama here?

Post by Eteru »

Can you list your top 3 favorite K-drama of all time?

I've already watched a lot of Korean dramas so it's really hard to choose the BEST, considering that there were also a lot of GOOD ones.

Still, I managed to evaluate them out and I guess mine would be:
1. W-Two worlds
2. Weightlifting fairy
3. While you were sleeping

How about yours?

for me i would just say the first 3 that comes to mind

1. Goblin
2. Descendants of the Sun
3. welcome to Waikiki (this is one of the funniest k-dramas i have ever seen)

as i type these, i remember a hundred more. I Remember you is one, Remember (son of war) is another one, ok i need to stop myself.

I'm very glad to find someone who shares the same interest as mine. Your list was indeed some of the most wonderful k-dramas that I've ever watched, but I've only heard of Waikiki and I've been considering to watch it. It's just hard to find a time when you've been left with another list of pending k-dramas to watch as well, you know the struggle.

Anyway, thanks for sharing!

I'm a huge fan! I've watched a lot of kdramas, so it was hard to make this list (although #1 is an exception, because it's the best of the best, in my opinion).

#1: Queen Seon Deok
#2: Kill Me, Heal Me
#3: It's Okay, That's Love

P.S.: I like Weightlifting Fairy and While You Were Sleeping, too!

Yep - all they way. My very fist K-drama was Boys Over Flowers, followed by My Girlfriend is a Gumiho. More recently, I've watched Goblin: The Lonely and Great God and I'm currently watching Touch Your Heart.

I am into korean drama, I like how they work within an already decided time frame, as in the number of episodes being already decided starting the first episode.
