Drama Recommendation~

[Myeolchi]

Recommend your favorite dramas here. Dramas that you recommend can be from any language~


One day one post though~

I'm going to recommend the korean drama Pinocchio~ It's a very good series about how the media sensationalizes so much. While a lot of it could be considered a bit exaggerated, it makes you think/wonder just how far the media would go just to get a good headline/ratings.

There's also some nice romantic scenes and a few nice plot twists that I enjoyed.It's kinda like you expect the drama to go a certain way because they always do, but this one proved me wrong. Lol. Oh, and be prepared for feels!!! Lots of them!

YOO I've never watched it before, but I heard the k-drama "Kill Me, Heal Me" was really good! Like even the people who usually ridicule Korean dramas and have a hard time enjoying them loved this one!

Anyone who loves k-dramas should check out My Love from Another Star!

Here is the synopsis:
Do Min Joon (Kim Soo Hyun) is an otherworldly beauty, literally. After crash landing on Earth 400 years ago, Min Joon has diligently observed humans for centuries, ultimately coming to cynical conclusions. On top of being a super babe, Min Joon's got enhanced vision, hearing and agility — all the more reason to believe he's superior to everyone on Earth. That is, until he pursues the beautiful actress Cheon Song Yi (Gianna Jun) for a romance out of this world (DramaFever).

IS NO ONE LITERALLY GOING TO RECOMMEND HEIRS?! (kind of cliche in the sense of rich boy/poor girl) but it was one of my favorites (stars Lee Min Ho from Faith and Boys Over Flowers and Park Shin-Hye from Heartstrings and Pinocchio) My Love from Another Star was good too

Modern-Day Type Dramas
-Bride of the Century (stars Lee Hong Ki from F.T. Island)
-Bridal Mask (wow two titles with some sort of bride yet have nothing to do with each other) (stars Joo Won from Good Doctor)
-Healer (stars Ji Chang-Wook from Empress Ki)
-Descendants of the Sun (super popular at the moment)
-Flower Boy Next Door (stars Park Shin-Hye from Heirs and Pinocchio, Yoon Shi-Yoon from High Kick 2)
-Flower Boy Ramen Shop (plot is in no way alike to the one above) (stars Jung Il-Woo from Moon Embraces the Sun)
-High Kick 2 (Through the Roof)
-Emergency Couple (stars Song Ji-Hyo from Goong and Running Man, Choi Jin-Hyuk from Heirs)
