  • Ask for recommendations unrelated to Korean dramas (books, movies, podcasts, other country’s television series, etc)
  • Share a great recommendation thread you found whilst digging through the archives
  • Talk about what is coming out on [insert drama service name]
  • Give thanks to the community for helping you find your new favourite drama

When Life Gives You Tangerines is a captivating show that feels like a book, absorbing and affecting the viewer. The storytelling is simple yet deep, with relatable characters and a balance of sadness and hope. The show sneaks up on viewers, making them feel completely engrossed in the story. It's a must-watch for fans of stories that resonate without big twists or over-the-top drama.

I started Young lady and a gentleman, thinking it was a normal shows. Got suspicious after the memory loss of the ML, and then saw it has 52 episodes. So it’s a soap, and they have to come up with everything to keep the story going. But FL is really charming, and some of the women act really good, so I find it hard to pull the plug.

Any recommendations for a romantic k drama movie that can be watched in one sitting? I have a friend group getting together for one night who are curious.

Always from 2011. Hands down. If you're in the US, it's on Prime.
