My top three K-dramas would be:

1. The Heirs - Park Shin Hye and Lee Min Ho in one show. I cannot miss that! ❤️❤️❤️

2. I Hear Your Voice - I liked the show because of the story and came to like the characters as well.

3. Goblin - no further explanation required. 😁
Stay safe! Sending hugs

I am obsessed with k-dramas. My most favorite recent one would be It's okay to not be okay, which is also available on Netflix. I also love Crash Landing On You and Cunning Single Lady. :)

Okayyy, absolutely love this thread @Eteru KDramas are the next best thing since chocolate if I do say so myself.
Your list is quite good. Although haven't watched W-Two worlds yet but all my friends all say it's good so 💃🏾
My list would probably go something like
1. Master's Sun
2. Meloholoc
3. Who are You
In no particular order though.
Oooh. Honorable mention would be Korean Odyssey, Cheo Young, My girlfriend is a Gu Minho, Surplus Princess...I think I'd best stop now. :tiphat:

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.

thanks for creating this beautiful post.
I absolutely loooove Welcome to Waikiki :D :D I watch it over and over again. Kim Jung-hyun's performance was the highlight for me. Such a cutie. Anyways, your list is quite lovely, Goblin seems to be most people's favourite.

I wasn't a big fan of them, I didn't think they would level up to the fast-paced American movies but they are not half as bad.
Imagine if we had no secrets, no respite from the truth. What if everything was laid bare the moment, we introduced ourselves?
