Top 50 Favourite Korean Dramas (2005 - 2024)
I have watched almost 200 Korean Dramas over the past 20 years! So I've concluded these as my TOP 50 Favourite (Too many great shows I can't choose only 10 or 30!)
Favourite Genre: Fantasy, romance (with good chemistry), comedy, youth and family drama etc.
Other Genres that I didn't watch that much: Thriller, Suspense, Dark or Revenge.
I understand that different people have different preferences, so some shows I didn't list doesn't mean it's not nice, it's just personal preference so I did state on top my least preferred genre so if you are expecting those kinds, my list might not be applicable for you! On the other hand, if you enjoyed most of the shows from this list, you might be having same preference and taste as I am, so why not considering to watch the other on the list too! :)
*Side note: I rated these based on the overall, so some might not have great ending but I personally felt the overall of the show was great so I put it in my list too, so if you are those who can't stand bad ending, do check on the reviews before you start watching it!
