Lee Minho is back and better than ever! Paired with the incredible Kim Go-eun from "Goblin" fame, Minho is the King while she's a no-nonsense police detective. Our brand-new favorite couple are focused on saving not one but TWO dimensions, all in jaw-dropping cinematographic K-Drama glory.

The King: Eternal Monarch (2020)

He's a hot CEO and she's a small, cute girl with the muscle strength to stop a bus in its tracks. Also, there's a psychopath on the loose? Park Hyung-sik plays the damsel-in-distress to Park Bo Young's heroine in this comic book-reminiscent drama, and oh, how the turn tables. Not to mention this drama has a seriously 10/10 soundtrack too!

Strong Woman Bong Soon (2017)

If you're a spunky reporter with a traumatic childhood like Park Min Young's character, what else can you ask for but a stressed spy boy on your side? Well, maybe a stressed spy boy with a middle aged lady as his hacker sidekick! Enjoy political intrigue, parkour, and puppy dog eyes courtesy of Ji Chang Wook, this era's best K-drama action hero.

Healer (2014)

Not for the faint of heart, this historical drama is half goofiness, half tearful bloodshed. Long-lost king political intrigue mixes with a brooding squad camaraderie. Perks include: men with amazing hair, more men with amazing hair, and they all also have amazing skin too. Although, to be honest, we're all watching it for our favorites Kim Taehyung from BTS and Minho from SHINee!

Hwarang: The Poet Warrior Youth (2016)

Who doesn't enjoy a coming-of-age, slow burn romance? And if the male lead is a tall, dorky sweetie-pie with great abs, it's all the better! Lee Sung Kyung (our relatable yet ethereal queen) is the ace of the girl's weightlifting team, and Nam Joo Hyuk pulls out his natural acting chops to win us over as the school's best swimmer. This drama is super light, cute, and funny; the perfect pick-me-up.

Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo (2016)

Let's flip the common K-Drama trope and bring out a confident female South Korean CEO, played by Son Ye Jin, and paraglide her across enemy lines, smack into a tall tsundere North Korean soldier. Hyun Bin may be a surprising find in North Korea, but the real treasure is the friends we found along the way. Which is to say, his unconventional bro squad who gang together to smuggle our leading lady back across the border, whilst dodging attacks from both the North and the South in this top-rated drama.

Crash Landing On You (2019)

2016 gave us all the best dramas. Descendants Of The Sun starts with a classic pair-up: a doctor and a soldier. This incredibly popular drama featuring the original Song-Song couple gives you everything: laughs, ugly sobbing, warm fuzzies, illogical rage at that one random guy with no morals, David Lee McInnis as everyone's favorite villain, and Onew from SHINee playing the most softest doctor boy in the world. And as usual, the soundtrack is everything!

Descendants Of The Sun (2016)

Also known as Guardian: The Lonely and Great God, Goblin always hits the top of the lists when it comes to iconic award-winning dramas. This show will fill your vast need for a healthy and hilarious bromance between two immortals: a fairytale Korean trickster god, the Goblin, and a grim reaper. They're forced, by your typical K-Drama circumstances, to share a house with a sunshine-y 19-year-old school girl, our acting genius Kim Go-eun. Bonus: the Goblin's K-Pop-idol-looking rich nephew (Yook Sung-Jae from BTOB) is always available to be help or a hindrance. Be ready for heart-racing twists, smart alec one-liners, and a handful of really good tearjerker moments.

Goblin (2016)

Stunningly beautiful and bittersweet. If you're looking for emotional pain (in the best way), Moon Lovers can fulfill all your needs. IU plays a girl who gets transported to and trapped in the Goryeo Dynasty (historical Korea), and befriends the extensive and dysfunctional royal family. 13 princes to choose from — including Baekhyun from EXO — and the disfigured savage 4th prince. She deeeeefinitely won't fall in love to the ruin of all, right?

Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo (2016)

Ignore the 2013 bowl cut style, because Kim Soo Hyun's about to win your heart as a puppy-dog-eyed immortal alien. After 400 years trapped on earth, our male lead is ready to return to outer space. He obviously has no time for a proud and slightly ditzy star actress (Jun Ji-hyun) who is going through a tough career decline. No worries, though, fate won't leave the issue alone as she moves in next door and mistakes him as a stalker. He's emotionless and ancient, she's loud and flighty, a nearby murderer takes a fancy to the pair... Drama ensues in the best possible, super-powered alien way.

My Love From The Star (2013)
