Hidden Gem Recs

POTENTIAL SPOILER ALERT: I am starting to add comments in my lists in lieu of reviews/notes so beware of the potential spoilers. I will try to keep them to a minimum because I get it.

From the Reddit thread: some of the lesser-known or lesser-recommended dramas that don't get enough love. These were all recommended as underappreciated dramas. I included every rec even though some I wouldn't personally categorize as hidden gems.

I loved this but don't personally feel like it is a hidden gem (even though it was recommended as such).

Very cute show. Not exactly a hidden gem, but it was recommended so on the list it goes.

I found the FL to be a bit of a mess and I nearly quit the drama, but everyone should experience some Bruce He in their life. He is so freaking adorable I can't stand it.
12. Find Me in Your Memory

Korean Drama - 2020, 32 episodes

8.5

Another good, slow-burn melo romance. There may be a little too much drama towards the end, but it's not enough to not make it worth the watch. Plus, I loved our ML. Need to see more of him in the future!
13. Please Don't Meet the Man

Korean Drama - 2020, 10 episodes

9.0

I was so completely charmed by this drama. Exactly the kind of off-beat romcom that I love. Definitely deserves more hype!
