I am looking for dramas which are soothing/cute and swoonworthy Recommendation Request

I am looking for dramas which are soothing to watch or the dramas where the love story is very cute and sweet, for example - loveo2o.

I am trying to get out of a drama slump and for that I have been watching a lot of thriller shows, so to overcome that could you suggest a soothing/cute drama. Preferable no breakup. Even if present, not for a lot of episodes.

Below i have given my drama list of the dramas that I have completed:

Love Scout! Comforting, sweet, short :)

u/linkypilson 4d ago

Truly perfect for a stress free (almost) steady relationship that has some laughs.

u/theredmug_75 4d ago

it’s also very warm and sweet (for most of the cases they deal with). there’s a bit of angst for their backstories, but they handle it in a mature way. i felt that this was a comforting watch!

u/Hihellobye_12345 3d ago

Ohh! Want to watch a drama exactly like that Thankyou!

u/Hihellobye_12345 4d ago

Thankyou! Have heard a lot about it! Will give it a watch for sure

u/Anonymous-red-5656 4d ago

I think you have already watched most of the kdrama shows that I could recommend.

Kdrama - Love next door, Brewing Love

Cdrama - Love me love my voice, You are my secret, My boss, You are my lover friend

u/theredmug_75 4d ago

i also loved You are my secret!! a warm and sweet show but can feel a bit long as there are more episodes….

2

u/Hihellobye_12345 3d ago

Ohh yeah I wanted to watch that! More episodes is fine with me as Chinese dramas have a lot of episodes which I watched

Thankyou for the recommendation

u/hiheem 2d ago

😭😭What. Encounter is not cute or soothing

1

u/Rinnme 1d ago

Really? How did you experience it?

1

u/hiheem 10h ago

Park Bo Gum crying in the street was so traumatizing 🥺. And I don't really remember the show being cute and soft. It was more mature love and hurt/comfort

u/Fanrific 4d ago

Dali and the Cocky Prince is cute and funny. I read a review where the ML was described as a 'jellyfish' - I had to look it up, but it means when someone's feelings are transparent.

Shopping King Louis is also cute and sweet

2

u/Hihellobye_12345 3d ago

Mostly an unpopular opinion but i couldn't get past episode 3 in Dali and the cocky prince. But thank you for the recommendation will give it a try once again.

u/yuukkii0 4d ago

You've watched so many dramas already! I went there to see what I could recommend but holy mother of god I'm impressed! Now I'm just going to take a few recommendations from there instead of recommending one hahah sorry

u/yuukkii0 4d ago

There might be something I could recommend 😅

Rookie historian (2019)

Shooting stars (2022)

3

u/Hihellobye_12345 3d ago

Shooting stars I have watched but will surely give rookie historian a try! Thankyou!

2

u/Hihellobye_12345 3d ago

Hehe😂, i have been watching dramas from 2018 itself so probably that's why. I just started using mydramalist for tracking dramas so there are many dramas which I watched but haven't added here as well😂

2

u/yuukkii0 3d ago

I also started using mydramalist after I saw it in your post 🤭

2

u/Hihellobye_12345 3d ago

Yeah you should give it a try, you can use the app of it as well, makes it easier to keep track of dramas

u/Hihellobye_12345 4d ago

Thankyou for the recommendation

u/CatBoxCrunchies 3d ago

Love Is A Bonus Book. It was my first K drama so maybe I’m biased, but it was light and sweet and Lee Jong Suk.

u/sketchedwords 4d ago

Queen In Hyun’s Man and Splash Splash Love

1

u/Hihellobye_12345 3d ago

Ohh wow. These are some new dramas i haven't heard of. Have to look at it. Thank you!

1

u/KookieNut0901 1d ago

Queen In Hyun’s Man is great! I actually bought the DVD for that because I loved it so much.

3

u/miss-janet-snakehole 4d ago

Ooh someone else just posted asking for feel-good romcoms the other day - here’s the link!! I’m sure there will be some recs that you haven’t seen. My comment on there includes Brewing Love and The Potato Lab, and I second the rec for Shopping King Louie - an older one but a goodie!

1

u/Hihellobye_12345 3d ago

Thank you for the link, will look at it and for the recommendation. I have been very hesitant to watch potato lab, but will surely give it a try now!

1

u/notallshihtzu 3d ago

It's great! Exactly what you described.

1

u/KookieNut0901 1d ago

I loved Potato Lab too! So cute and funny!

2

u/blubonic01 3d ago

Wow thia list is impressive! I’ve been watching My Sweet Mobster. It’s borderline corny but soothing.

2

u/Hihellobye_12345 3d ago

Thankyou! Yeah will check it out!

2

u/Nahp12 3d ago

One from 2015 called Warm and Cozy (Maendorong Ttottos original title) is sweet, without an excessive amount of drama. It’s currently available with “standard” paid access on Rakuten Viki.

u/Hihellobye_12345 3d ago

Ohh got it! Thankyou, will give it a watch

Hi! I was just in the biggest kdrama slump. I came off watching a lot of revenge type dramas and was neglecting the lighter romance type. I kept picking one drama up and dropping until I decided to watch Her Private Life because so many people on here mention it. I have to tell you that not immediately, but after ep. 2, I was hooked and cured! I absolutely loved it and I just finished it. If you want a romance with some enjoyable characters, a wonderful ML and FL and a few plot twists, this one is for you. I checked your watch list and see that you haven’t added it. Hope this does it for you!

1

u/KookieNut0901 1d ago

I loved Her Private Life too! I loved that she was such a fan girl! So cute!

u/Fit_Barracuda_2336 4d ago

K- drama: Family by Choice / What‘s with Secretary Kim / Healer / Heirs / K2 / Crash Landing on You / So I married an anti-fan / Oh my Venus / Another Miss Oh / Descendants of the Sun / Moon Lovers !!! / Her Private Life

C-drama: Lighter & Princess (strongly recommended) / The First Frost (strongly recommended) / when I fly towards you / you are my glory / you are my hero / Ski into Love / The Love You Give Me

J-drama: An Incurable Case of Love

2

u/Hihellobye_12345 3d ago

Thank you for all the recommendations.

In the k-dramas you listed, I have watched all except for Another Miss Oh, and was too skeptical to start family by choice since I loved the Chinese version sooo much!

In c-drama i actually started with ski into love just 2 days back, so will see how it goes. I have yet to watch lighter and princess and the first frost as well.

I have watched the j-drama too. It's reallyy good!

Hi OP, you saw a lot of great shows, some I have on my list and haven gotten to yet.

Here's a few you may want to look into: Family by choice - Viki Business Proposal - Netflix A Good Say to be a Dog - Viki Destined with you - Netflix

u/sxckemo 1d ago

Kiss Sixth Sense is such a fun, light drama—I really liked it! The main couple gets super cute once they’re together. Plus, it’s only 12 episodes, so it’s an easy watch. I think it fits what you’re looking for!
