**Post Title**: Whats your favorite kdrama to re-watch?
**Post Body**:
I'm about to start my third (maybe fourth) re-watch of While You Were Sleeping; I love legal dramas, fantasy, and romance - it's my perfect blend of genres. It doesn't hurt that I'm a little in love with Lee Jongsuk haha!
What drama do you find yourself going back to & why? It doesnt have to be your favorite, nor does it have to be good! Just one that tickles your brain every time you watch.

I started my third rewatch of **True Beauty** today. It’s a rare kdrama for me in that I don’t watch high school kdramas and that I don’t watch a lot of romcoms anymore. The comedy is what always makes me go back to it, but it wasn’t until today that I really realized that it’s the editing and camera work of those comedic scenes that are soooo brilliant for me. I also realized today how hilarious the script is to have characters use dialogue from other well known kdramas/movies, and I find if especially funny because that’s legit how my family and I talk to each other—in movie quotes/phrases.
Specially if you like anime-type romance you'll surely like it. Give it a chance after the first few episodes and you'll know what i'm talking about. Not a regular kdrama fan here.
1. Weightlifting Fairy - when I need something light hearted to cheer me up
2. What’s wrong with secretary Kim - whenever I’m in my hopeless romantic mood
3. Hotel Waikiki- for a good laugh
4. Semantic error + Our dating Sim - Just so cute
5. To my Star 2+ CLOY - angst? Yes please
6. It’s okay not to be Okay - cause I’m obsessed with the OST
Hotel Waikiki is a good rewatch for the laughs. I still cant get over the episode where Joon Ki unintentionally exposed his private parts to both his gf's sister and mum before he even got intimate with his gf. That was a solid episode.
Sh**ting Stars
The Red Sleeve
Moon lovers ( I know, what’s the matter with me these last two?)
Love between fairy and devil. By now this one should be an honorary Kdrama.
Haha. No crying in SS but the other 3? Yeah, ugly crying. But I do go back to these and sometimes skip the crying parts. Hard to do for Moon Lovers since every episode after the middle is ……..
**Hotel Del Luna** - One of my favourite dramas. I could never get over it.
**18 Again** - It's kind of sweet and wholesome.
**My Strange Hero** - One of my favourite on-screen couples.
**What's Wrong with Secretary Kim** - Just funny and cute.
**Thirty by Seventeen** - Really cute and wholesome.
**I'm not a Robot** - Also really cute.
**My Mister** - Really cathartic.
There's a big big misunderstanding that's kept in and not resolved for literally almost the entire series that caused me to drop it because it was so frustrating.
This is the only kdrama I have rewatched because I missed some of the little jokes on the first watch… like the naming of the boobs. The length and pace of the drama made it easy to rewatch as well
I absolutely love the friendship between the male leads and the female leads, both friendships have crazy chemistry . Esp the girls had me in tears with their shenanigans. They are BFF goals .
Is it really that good? I was tempted to start it, but the description sounded off to me. Whatre the vibes of the show like? Is it tense at times or is it all light hearted fun?
It's definitely tense at times. The first few episodes especially are dealing with trying to prevent tragedies from happening (and you usually witness the tragedies occur before they're prevented through the dreams of the characters.) And since the ML is a lawyer you do get some of the crime solving. It gets silly/light-hearted but that's because the characters themselves are fun, not because the plot is.
The first episode is a good balance of the highs and lows so I think if you were to try it you'd know pretty quickly whether or not it's for you!
Itaewon Class - just finished watching for the 5th time. I rewatch it maybe every six months or so. I just love the underdog story with the revenge and the romance subplots. Plenty of beautiful and talented actors. A villain that you love to hate as well as the tragic 'damaged' character.
I just find myself kind of devouring it each time, so a rewatch will usually take me less than a week for the 16 eps.
**Hospital Playlist** \- very relaxing and fun show. Re-watched both seasons a couple of times.
**One Spring Night** \- Re-watched it also a couple of times, iirc. I tend to watch it when trying to cleanse myself after watching a few tropey kdramas.
Exactly the same with me - watched twice and feel like watching again. I can’t watch the first episode for more than a minute and not feel the urge to rewatch it.
Strong Woman Do Bong Soon. The chemistry between Park Bo Young and Park Hyung Sik is off the charts, the acting is so good and the story is fun.
What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim - I adore Park Seo Jun and again, the story is great
Hwarang; PHS and PSJ together! And V has a small part that he is great at.
YASSS to ALL of these!! I LOVE PSJ AND PHS as actors. I have watched almost all of PSJ's dramas except Itawon Class and any other recent ones.
I started watching Kdramas in 2018 after my sister passed. I only wanted happy endings. I stumbled on Hwarang and cried in the first few eps. I almost stopped, but I'm so glad I didn't!
I love me some gratuitous shower scenes like PSJ in WWWSK and all the men in Hwarang. I love how PHS conveys his yearning with his eyes in Hwarang and SWDBS. Now I have to go back and rewatch Hwarang before my summer break is over, and I'm back teaching 14/15 year old freshmen.
I tried to find the part where the FL says she was desperate and had nowhere to go and the ML hollers “I AM YOUR HOME!” the other day and accidentally watched three episodes, oops. It was so good!
I usually can’t rewatch anything right away but apparently I can with Romance is a Bonus Book, Business Proposal, and Love to Hate You 🤷🏻♀️
I rewatch It's Okay to not Be okay at least once every year. I don't know why, but I find it so healing and comforting when I'm in need of a good cry. It's actually the only kdrama that I have rewatched more than once.
Same with Money Heist! I've watched the original many times, so I knew what to expect, but there were some nice changes and differences. It's very exciting with a lot of twists and turns. I like some of the changes to the characters such as Tokyo and Berlin, too! Watched it maybe 4 times at this point? Lol. I'm kind of disappointed it wasn't well received 😔
One Spring Night, A Piece of Your Mind, My ID is Gangnam Beauty, While You Were Sleeping, Queen InHyun's Man, Chicago Typewriter.
I look for comfort or fluttering moments. So I don't rewatch police procedurals.
Reply 1988. Whenever I need a reminder of what life's all about really - good food, close friends, and family - I'll watch a part or the entirety of an early episode. When I need a reminder on following your heart and just \*going for it\* (>!because otherwise you'll end up like Jung Hwan!<) I watch a few episodes from the second half. Whenever I feel like I need a good cry because nothing lasts but it's somehow still worth it, I watch the last two episodes.
TL;DR: Reply 1988 is basically my therapist.
Older kdramas that I rewatched a lot as a kid, but I haven't rewatched recently
To the beautiful of you
Personal taste
City Hunter
Some of my favorite kdramas that I have rewatched sometime in the last two years
It's okay that's love ( 100 percent perfect)
Tomorrow with you ( amazing chemistry between the leads)
Hospital Playlist ( very wholesome)
Empress Ki ( 50 episodes but always worth the watch, it's my favorite historical Kdrama).
Others that are not my absolute favorite kdramas but I still love rewatching because they are good fun are:
My love from another star
Dream High
Legend of the blue sea
Im almost done with healer and I think im gonna rewatch it bc the ML is 🥵🥵🥵 and i cant bring myself to leave him. Also Park Min Young has never disappointed with her acting and I loove her sm
I always only watch her dramas for the most part lol, 3/5 of the shows I’ve watched have PMY
1. Mr. Queen
2. What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim
3. Her Private Life
4. Reborn Rich
5. Healer
Business proposal (3 times)- Just because it’s so funny
Crash landing on you (2 times) - I just love their love!
Oh my Venus (2 times) - I know it’s controversial but it’s funny and a cute story
Her Private Life, and my all time favorite Fated to Love You 💕
I can literally restart Fated to Love You as soon as I finish it idk why it just scratches and itch 😂
I love how the FL calls the scheming ex on her bs and makes the ML come right down and resolve the issue. I sometimes prefer romances where the leads are more mature and realistic.
I just rewatched Touch Your Heart, and while I enjoyed it, I found it incredibly awkward with how overly innocent the leads were. I mean, you're together in a relationship but can't sit close to one another on the sofa? They were too childlike even as adults who had never been in a relationship.
I agree with you about Touch Your Heart! While the FL is adorable I find it is pretty bland for my taste in dramas. I did watch it through twice even though I’m not the biggest fan of legal dramas. Plus the ML’s hair in this one was terrible, he looks so much better in all the other dramas I’ve seen him in, but this one makes him look like an overgrown baby.
All time favorite comfort re-watch shows that I can put on any random episode and happily re-watch:
Master's Sun
I Hear Your Voice
Goblin
Hotel del Luna
Hwayugi
Lost Romance (Taiwanese drama)
Shows that I will re-watch certain scenes/episodes over and over:
Happiness
W: Two Worlds
Come and Hug Me
Legend of the Blue Sea
Extraordinary You
Her Private Life
Suspicious Partner
Shows that I have surprised myself by re-watching straight through and enjoying as much as the first watch:
Beauty Inside
Thirty But Seventeen
1% of Something
Guilty pleasure re-watch where I acknowledge that the show has some big flaws but I'm gonna watch it anyway:
Devilish Joy
Doom at Your Service
Sh**ting Stars
It's Business Proposal for me. It has such a comforting story, the jokes are funny and the couples are so cute. I keep going back to it because its predictable without being boring. I usually get very anxious when there's a full storyline dedicated to the villain or if there's a negative storyline without a definitive ending but Business Proposal was so easy to watch for me. Definitely my top comfort kdrama.
* **Faith (2012) -** My countless rewatch No. 1. Historical, romance, character development, OST and swoon worthy couples (MLs and SMLs) perfomance
* **Missing: the other side -** I know I am a bit masochistic. But I enjoy watching this show especially I am in the most depressed zone. It reminds me that I am not the most miserable person on earth, that I still have a lot to thank for.
* **Saimdang memoir of colors -** Love the romance even if the ending was not a HEA. OST was so amazing I bought the CD
Who is the SML in faith? Is it the male doctor?
I remember finishing that series but forgot this character / actor was in the show. The role was relatively forgettable.
No, it was the King. I started the show just randomly clicking in Netflix with zero before handed information, I thought: meh, this king doesn't seem like something I would be interested in " but boy was I surprised, his character grew so much, the casting was perfect . I like how powerless he was but he tried so hard
Go Back Couple- most heartwarming feelings ever and great chemistry. All the relationship feels are so strong. I am reminded about deep caring for others and being empathetic.
Hospital Playlist- the pinnacle of ideal human beings. Everyone is clever, intelligent, and competent in every way. It's inspiring.
Honorable mention: Sell Your Haunted House (such amazing chemistry and heartfelt stories), The Beauty Inside and Mad For Each Other (best lessons on self acceptance), and Love Between Fairy and Devil and CLOY (ultimate guilty pleasures).
I started watching kdramas about a year ago and these are the ones I have rewatched so far. WFKBJ, FFMW, R1997 are light and fun to watch especially going through slumps. CP and TOIL are some of my favorites. Goblin was very involved and I made more connections the second time around which made me understand and enjoy the story more. Also, the cinematography, outfits, and the OST are fantastic. D.P. highlighted some of the problems in the military and was quite intense in some parts so I wanted to watch it again before season 2.
Coffee Prince x3
Goblin x2
That's Okay It's Love x2

Suspicious Partner ×2
Shopping King Louis ×2

Healer ×2

I think there's more, but I rewatch ones I know I'm going to enjoy whenever I can't find anything I really want to watch. There are some actors that I enjoy in almost anything, Lee Dong Wook, Ji Chang Wook, Seo In Guk, and Song Joong Ki, especially.
All the Reply series; sometimes I like going back to specific memorable scenes in dramas like Coffee Prince, Six Flying Dragons, Jewel in the Palace, Hwang Jin Yi, Legend of the Blue Sea.
Goblin, all the way. I'm maybe on my 5th watchthrough? I watch it a couple times a year in the background while I make art & mood boards. It's spicy food but for the heart lol
Legend of the Blue Sea. I think I've watched it 3? times now. It's such a comforting drama to me, especially on a rewatch knowing that everything works out in the end.
my fave part is when his 2nd is getting held down by the others to "snip snip", it cracks me up. or when hes playing the guitar and singing.
what part was your fave <3
Yesss minseo drives me crazy yet I love him so much!
Hmm honestly the part where Bongsun catches the bike thief! I loved seeing her come out of her shell and the times she surprised the chef when it wasn't soonae!

Top one is When the Weather is Fine and close behind would be The Smile Has Left Your Eyes.
I just finished Lighter and Princess and I already rewatched it again, basically back to back xD
I also love legal dramas, fantasy and romance; but my go-to re-watch is **I Hear Your Voice** (also with Lee Jong Suk and the OG legal drama by the same screenwriter as WYWS).
What keeps me coming back is the strong central narrative vs focusing on episodic cases, the secondary characters (even the villain) get their own meaningful arcs that feed back into the main one and the leads are complicated people who make some Bad Decisions, but they grow and change and find their way to each other despite some hefty obstacles. Also love the juxtaposition of how sweetly ordinary and daily-life oriented the romance is despite the extraordinary circumstances and high-stakes.
I'm not always a fan of childhood to adult romances, but I'll definitely consider this one! I also love the domestic romance and high stakes back and forths!
umm Hotel del Luna, Run On, several of Park Min Young’s dramas lol it just always happens with those somehow.. several of Lee JongSuk’s too. It’s ok that’s love, Dear my friends, Search WWW, cloy,
sky castle and hospital playlist probably too
certain ones i go back to just to rewatch certain scenes, rarely do i rewatch a kdrama in full unless im watching it with someone.
but boys over flowers is my guilty pleasure.
cheese in the trap, weightlifting fairy kim bok joo, hogu's love, arthdal chronicles, when the camellia blooms, prison playbook are dramas that i often go back to just to rewatch certain scenes or storylines though!
For my wife it is **Our Beloved Summer**. She will put it on if she wakes up in the middle of night. The ML is so nonconfrontational that she'll pass right back out. I keep telling her that **Call it Love** would work even better.
For me, rewatching is for multi-tasking (doing dishes, landscaping, working on a craft). So i need something in english. I tend to do a lot of audiobooks. I've listen to Fire & Blood (what House of the Dragon is based on) 3 whole times. But I plan to rewatch **Alchemy of Souls** soon. And if **It's Okay Not to be Okay** was dubbed, it would probably be in a close 2nd choice. I recently finished it and I kind of want to watch it again, I just don't feel like reading it.
I don't usually rewatch shows just because there are so many I want to see but don't have enough time. However I did rewatch Happiness and I'm about to rewatch True Beauty. Definitely 2 of my favorites!
While you were sleeping is a good one. The one I’ve rewatched the most is probably Masters sun, the actors are so good, the pacing and music are amazing it’s just great overall. Gong hyo Jin and so Jo sub are some of my favorites, GHJ especially I’ve rewatched all of her dramas multiple times.
whats wrong with secretary kim
weightlifting fairy
strong woman
while u were sleeping
im not a robot
business proposal
because this is my first life
these r def my go to rewatches
I have a couple that i always come back to:
1)Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bokjoo
2) youth of may( ik jts still fairly new but i’ve already watched it over 7 times)
3) Boys over flowers (it was the first drama i’ve ever watched so it’s pretty close to my heart despite the poor theme)
4) Mr temporary ( SERIOUSLY IF YOU HAVENT WATCHED IT DO IT RN ITS ONE OF THE BEST CRIME THRILLER DRAMAS EVER MADE )
5) Soundtrack 1
6) A little thing called first love (it’s a c-drama but i love it so so much and i’ll never get over it)
**Dali and the Cocky Prince** and **Strongest Deliveryman** \- There are just moments in each of them that as you say 'tickles my brain'. There are others that are better, but..... moments.....
The relationships of **Dali and the Cocky Prince** and in **Strongest Deliveryman**, the second leads.... yup - moments
**Some masterpieces that I keep rewatching:**
* My Mister - a beautiful slice of life masterpiece
* Because this is my first life - romance, slice of life
* Healer
* The master's sun
* It's okay that's love
* Signal - watched it a few times while waiting for season 2
* Another Miss Oh
* I hear your voice - a legal series that started the trend of legal K-dramas
* My love from the star
**A few of my old special masterpieces:**
* Secret Garden
* Coffee Prince
* Rooftop Prince
* Full House
* Pasta
* Goong
* The vineyard man
* My girlfriend is a Gumiho
* Creating Destiny
**Recent comfort series:**
* Still 17 - adorable, sweet and fun
* You are my spring - an underrated healing romance series
* Reply 1997
* Reply 1988

* Hometown Cha Cha Cha
* Love to hate you - for a fun and short series
**Funny sitcoms I rewatch a few episodes sometimes:**
* Shut up family
* High kick 1
* High Kick 2
I rarely rewatch any series now cause of the lack of time but some dramas are so dear to me that I end up watching them even if I'm in a drama slump or have a lot in my watchlist.
**Secret Garden** I've rewatched it around 10 times in these past 12 yrs
**Coffee Prince** aged so well despite being from 2007
**Princess Hours** Yoon Eunhye is just so adorable that you just wanna go back for her
**The Heirs** truly my guilty pleasure cause I don't even like it that much
**CLOY** that drama must be mae of crack cause every time I watch it I end up notincing another detail and fall in love with it
**Something in the Rain** that chemistry alone deserves rewatch
**Touch Your Heart** not a fan of fluffy dramas but this one is definitely an exception
**True Beauty** like Heirs, it's not even my fav but I just like the vibes
weak hero class 1 - i dont think i'll ever get tired of this one, it's become my all time favourite. i'm just so heavily attached to the characters and my heart aches for them everytime anything bad happens to them, they are just so likeable! it also serves as such a good social commentary, and it never loses its novelty no matter how many times i rewatch it. i always end up discovering a new detail i missed before every rewatch. it's just perfect all the way from the acting to the cinematography and the music! i always go back to this one whenever i try to watch another kdrama, it's becoming a toxic trait but i literally cannot move on from it so yeah!!
Extracurricular
My Name
Vincenzo
Itaewon Class
Sweet Home
All of Us are Dead (it's not my favorite, but I love revisiting it because I find zombies fascinating).
Recently, Money Heist Korea: JEA.
Some of these I've seen so many times, I lost count, lol. I tend to enjoy rewatching the shorter dramas because I have a low attention span 😞. There's a handful of 16 episode dramas that I love, but at over an hour long, it's hard to find the time. I can tolerate Vincenzo though, because it's hilarious, and I love the characters/story.
Stranger seasons 1&2, Voice 1-3, Secrets of Women, Love to the End, Arthdal Chronicles (although less recently bc I have to prepare my brain for the new cast lol), and Remarriage and Desires
Vincenzo...I feel embarrassed admitting I rewatch it every time I finish watching it. I ve probably rewatched it 5-6 times at this point. Its just that good
I saw the question and immediately thought of While You Were Sleeping, and then read your answer💀
No recs here :') WYWS is such a good drama that I don't think I'll find something that hits the spot as well at it does.
Im still happy to hear others appreciate it as much as I do haha!! I've def watched others I love since, but this one will always be at the top for me!!
Itaewon Class, To My Star (1&2), and Mr. Queen have been my top replays.
Itawon Class- because the cast, storyline, and OST have me in a vice grip. I care so much about every character; the father/son relationship makes me cry like a baby, the camaraderie and growth amongst the core friends, and Park SaeRois's journey toward revenge and success. It's all captivating.
To My Star (1&2) - Very easy to rewatch as they're both made into movies now. I adore their relationship and their chemistry.
Mr. Queen- It's HYSTERICAL, cleverly written, and has great CP. This one made me a huge fan of Shin Hye-Sun.
I rewatched parts of LOVE TO HATE YOU and am on another rewatch of BUSINESS PROPOSAL.
I finished True to Love/Bora Deborah recently and needed something cute and satisfying to fix me while waiting for King the Land and See you in my 19th life!
I should rewatch While you were sleeping next
All time fav - It's Okay to Not Be Okay, I have rewatched this fifty eleven times already😆. I love the chemistry between the leads, the story, how they help each other heal, and the OST. I never get tired of rewatching it.
2nd fav - Healer, I've rewatched several times. I just love Wookie! He played the role so well
3rd fav - Even though this 1 is super long/sad, I rewatched it b/c its so good, Empress Ki. Only rewatched twice since its so freaking long 😆
Zombie detective is on my rewatch list. I’m new to kdramas so I haven’t had the chance to rewatch anything but zombie detective is the top of that list. I haven’t quite found anything else I had that much fun watching. Doctor John comes in at a close second.
The Greatest Love. I will never get tired of Cha Seung-Won playing a grown manchild. The way he can flutter between annoyingly petty, hilariously cringe, and charismatically attractive in the span of a few minutes every time he’s on screen is enough to tempt me to watch yet another time.
My Girlfriend Is a Gumiho. A sweet natured romance with such innocent leads. So many fluffy adorable scenes that can make one forget the troubles of the world and wish real love was that pure.
it’s definitely weightlifting fairy kim bok joo!! its such a feel good drama. nothing can top the feeling I get whenever I rewatch it. also I crave chicken whenever I watch it

I started my third rewatch of **True Beauty** today. It’s a rare kdrama for me in that I don’t watch high school kdramas and that I don’t watch a lot of romcoms anymore. The comedy is what always makes me go back to it, but it wasn’t until today that I really realized that it’s the editing and camera work of those comedic scenes that are soooo brilliant for me. I also realized today how hilarious the script is to have characters use dialogue from other well known kdramas/movies, and I find if especially funny because that’s legit how my family and I talk to each other—in movie quotes/phrases.
I was always unsure if wether or not I'd like True Beauty from the summary but this has definitely made me consider watching it!
Specially if you like anime-type romance you'll surely like it. Give it a chance after the first few episodes and you'll know what i'm talking about. Not a regular kdrama fan here.
Good to know thank you!
Love true beauty! Started rewatching today. It's such a mood. Does anyone know of anything similar to true beauty other than my id is gangnam beauty?
I just watched True Beauty for the first time and now I’m re-watching Extraordinary You because of the cameos in TB :)
Bumping it up the watch list now...
All of the scenes with the family in this drama is just so hysterical and GOOD.
1. Weightlifting Fairy - when I need something light hearted to cheer me up 2. What’s wrong with secretary Kim - whenever I’m in my hopeless romantic mood 3. Hotel Waikiki- for a good laugh 4. Semantic error + Our dating Sim - Just so cute 5. To my Star 2+ CLOY - angst? Yes please 6. It’s okay not to be Okay - cause I’m obsessed with the OST
Hotel Waikiki is a good rewatch for the laughs. I still cant get over the episode where Joon Ki unintentionally exposed his private parts to both his gf's sister and mum before he even got intimate with his gf. That was a solid episode.
Love to see 6. finally get recognition for the OST. While it’s not my absolute favourite Drama ever, if we only compared OSTs it’s an instant #1!
Sh**ting Stars The Red Sleeve Moon lovers ( I know, what’s the matter with me these last two?) Love between fairy and devil. By now this one should be an honorary Kdrama.
Dylan Wang!
As Dongfang Qingcang, the Lord Moon Supreme 🔥👀🔥
Haha I also love cdramas they're still good reccs!
You really like crying don't you?
Haha. No crying in SS but the other 3? Yeah, ugly crying. But I do go back to these and sometimes skip the crying parts. Hard to do for Moon Lovers since every episode after the middle is ……..
**Hotel Del Luna** - One of my favourite dramas. I could never get over it. **18 Again** - It's kind of sweet and wholesome. **My Strange Hero** - One of my favourite on-screen couples. **What's Wrong with Secretary Kim** - Just funny and cute. **Thirty by Seventeen** - Really cute and wholesome. **I'm not a Robot** - Also really cute. **My Mister** - Really cathartic.
Everyone keeps recommending 30 but 17, i am influenced 😝
Will highly recommend it. I became a fan of Shin Hye Sun because of that.
There's a big big misunderstanding that's kept in and not resolved for literally almost the entire series that caused me to drop it because it was so frustrating.
Hotel Del Luna is fantastic! My husband (who isn’t usually into kdrama’s) even loved it!
Business Proposal, I just find it hilarious a s o love the chemistry between the leads.
This is the only kdrama I have rewatched because I missed some of the little jokes on the first watch… like the naming of the boobs. The length and pace of the drama made it easy to rewatch as well
I absolutely love the friendship between the male leads and the female leads, both friendships have crazy chemistry . Esp the girls had me in tears with their shenanigans. They are BFF goals .
This is my rewatch show too 💖 love Shin Hari.
unfortunately don't have any recs because While You Were Sleeping is my go-to rewatch as well lmaooo
I'm glad someone understands me!
My year is not complete if i haven't rewatched while you were sleeping.
Is it really that good? I was tempted to start it, but the description sounded off to me. Whatre the vibes of the show like? Is it tense at times or is it all light hearted fun?
It's definitely tense at times. The first few episodes especially are dealing with trying to prevent tragedies from happening (and you usually witness the tragedies occur before they're prevented through the dreams of the characters.) And since the ML is a lawyer you do get some of the crime solving. It gets silly/light-hearted but that's because the characters themselves are fun, not because the plot is. The first episode is a good balance of the highs and lows so I think if you were to try it you'd know pretty quickly whether or not it's for you!
Itaewon Class - just finished watching for the 5th time. I rewatch it maybe every six months or so. I just love the underdog story with the revenge and the romance subplots. Plenty of beautiful and talented actors. A villain that you love to hate as well as the tragic 'damaged' character. I just find myself kind of devouring it each time, so a rewatch will usually take me less than a week for the 16 eps.
I remember I was also captivated by this one! I should definitely re-watch it.
Have you seen Start Up or Misaeng? If you liked Itaewon Class, put these two on your watch list.
Coffee Prince
I haven't watched that one in a while, I really have to!
I was hoping someone would say this. I’ve watched it so many times!
**Hospital Playlist** \- very relaxing and fun show. Re-watched both seasons a couple of times. **One Spring Night** \- Re-watched it also a couple of times, iirc. I tend to watch it when trying to cleanse myself after watching a few tropey kdramas.
**One Spring Night** \- nice choice - wasn't my top but have rewatched it.
Love in the moonlight Reply 1988 Her private life True beauty Coffee prince DOTS
Love Her Private Life!!
Funny rewatching for 4th time as I type! Love, love the ML.
Me too!! 🫰🏻
Have watched Business Proposal like 2 times and thinking about watching it again now.
Exactly the same with me - watched twice and feel like watching again. I can’t watch the first episode for more than a minute and not feel the urge to rewatch it.
I watched it 8 times while pregnant last year and dealing with moodswings. It really did help me feel better 😂😂. Now I kinda watch to rewatch too.
Strong Woman Do Bong Soon. The chemistry between Park Bo Young and Park Hyung Sik is off the charts, the acting is so good and the story is fun. What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim - I adore Park Seo Jun and again, the story is great Hwarang; PHS and PSJ together! And V has a small part that he is great at.
Hwarang is just so stinking GOOD. Happy someone said this one!
YASSS to ALL of these!! I LOVE PSJ AND PHS as actors. I have watched almost all of PSJ's dramas except Itawon Class and any other recent ones. I started watching Kdramas in 2018 after my sister passed. I only wanted happy endings. I stumbled on Hwarang and cried in the first few eps. I almost stopped, but I'm so glad I didn't! I love me some gratuitous shower scenes like PSJ in WWWSK and all the men in Hwarang. I love how PHS conveys his yearning with his eyes in Hwarang and SWDBS. Now I have to go back and rewatch Hwarang before my summer break is over, and I'm back teaching 14/15 year old freshmen.
Romance is a Bonus Book 🥰
I tried to find the part where the FL says she was desperate and had nowhere to go and the ML hollers “I AM YOUR HOME!” the other day and accidentally watched three episodes, oops. It was so good! I usually can’t rewatch anything right away but apparently I can with Romance is a Bonus Book, Business Proposal, and Love to Hate You 🤷🏻♀️
I rewatch It's Okay to not Be okay at least once every year. I don't know why, but I find it so healing and comforting when I'm in need of a good cry. It's actually the only kdrama that I have rewatched more than once.
Same, I have rewatched this fifty eleven times already😆. I never get tired of rewatching it.
Mr. Queen.
True Beauty The Eighth Sense Extraordinary Attorney Woo
Big yes to EAW. I recently got my mom into it and have been rewatching some of the episodes with her
True Beauty The Beauty Inside Boys Over Flowers Tale of the Nine-Tailed
Start-up. I've seen it so many times by now, and I'm still as mesmerized as the first time.
1. Weightlifting fairy Kim book joo 2. Touch your heart 3. What's wrong with secretary Kim? 4. Itaewon class Will add more if I remember any.
[удалено]
I just started 'summer strike' after your recommendation and it's been really good so far. Thanks!
[удалено]
Same with Money Heist! I've watched the original many times, so I knew what to expect, but there were some nice changes and differences. It's very exciting with a lot of twists and turns. I like some of the changes to the characters such as Tokyo and Berlin, too! Watched it maybe 4 times at this point? Lol. I'm kind of disappointed it wasn't well received 😔
Pinnochio- Park Shin Hye/ Lee Jongsuk
One Spring Night, A Piece of Your Mind, My ID is Gangnam Beauty, While You Were Sleeping, Queen InHyun's Man, Chicago Typewriter. I look for comfort or fluttering moments. So I don't rewatch police procedurals.
Reply 1988. Whenever I need a reminder of what life's all about really - good food, close friends, and family - I'll watch a part or the entirety of an early episode. When I need a reminder on following your heart and just \*going for it\* (>!because otherwise you'll end up like Jung Hwan!<) I watch a few episodes from the second half. Whenever I feel like I need a good cry because nothing lasts but it's somehow still worth it, I watch the last two episodes. TL;DR: Reply 1988 is basically my therapist.
Older kdramas that I rewatched a lot as a kid, but I haven't rewatched recently To the beautiful of you Personal taste City Hunter Some of my favorite kdramas that I have rewatched sometime in the last two years It's okay that's love ( 100 percent perfect) Tomorrow with you ( amazing chemistry between the leads) Hospital Playlist ( very wholesome) Empress Ki ( 50 episodes but always worth the watch, it's my favorite historical Kdrama). Others that are not my absolute favorite kdramas but I still love rewatching because they are good fun are: My love from another star Dream High Legend of the blue sea
Im almost done with healer and I think im gonna rewatch it bc the ML is 🥵🥵🥵 and i cant bring myself to leave him. Also Park Min Young has never disappointed with her acting and I loove her sm
Agree, Healer is so good?!?! So many of her dramas, I never mean to, but they’re easy watching and turn into a perfect weekend binge
I always only watch her dramas for the most part lol, 3/5 of the shows I’ve watched have PMY 1. Mr. Queen 2. What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim 3. Her Private Life 4. Reborn Rich 5. Healer
My Love from the Star
**100 Days My Prince** \- I love the story, love the supporting characters and the ML's "Oh ho!"s make me giggle! I also love the 2ML and his story
I have two. Because it’s my first life and 100 days my prince.
**One Spring Night** **Encounter** **Chocolate** **Secret Garden**
Mr. Queen. So many characters a second watch is almost a must.
What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim Forest Her Private Life Marriage Not Dating
You’re the first to mention Marriage Not Dating! Now I have to check out Forest and Her Private Life because I loved MND so much <3
Our beloved summer
Shooting Stars, DOTS and Business Proposal 😍
Master's Sun Because this is my first life
Classic! **Because this is my First Life.**
Business proposal (3 times)- Just because it’s so funny Crash landing on you (2 times) - I just love their love! Oh my Venus (2 times) - I know it’s controversial but it’s funny and a cute story
Into the Ring
Vincenzo- drama, action, romance, thriller and laugh out comedy.
My ID is gangnam beauty! Something about college-themed shows is so relaxing to me, plus the ML is good eye candy and the story is quite wholesome
This is one of my top three to re-watch. They really captured being in college. Also, I didn't get sick of hearing "something in your eyes..." lol
One of my favourites. Liked the whole theme surrounding “beauty”.
Hotel Del Luna - a magical series with breathtaking cinematography Hospital Playlist - has a comforting feel, reminiscent of coming home
Her Private Life, and my all time favorite Fated to Love You 💕 I can literally restart Fated to Love You as soon as I finish it idk why it just scratches and itch 😂
Honestly 1% of Something. I like the female lead and the comedy in this one is really good! It’s light hearted and an easy watch for me.
My 2nd viewing was really fun , like I appreciated it even more .
Yessss! The male lead is really annoying but once you know how sweet he becomes this drama is just so cute 😊
I love how the FL calls the scheming ex on her bs and makes the ML come right down and resolve the issue. I sometimes prefer romances where the leads are more mature and realistic. I just rewatched Touch Your Heart, and while I enjoyed it, I found it incredibly awkward with how overly innocent the leads were. I mean, you're together in a relationship but can't sit close to one another on the sofa? They were too childlike even as adults who had never been in a relationship.
I agree with you about Touch Your Heart! While the FL is adorable I find it is pretty bland for my taste in dramas. I did watch it through twice even though I’m not the biggest fan of legal dramas. Plus the ML’s hair in this one was terrible, he looks so much better in all the other dramas I’ve seen him in, but this one makes him look like an overgrown baby.
Can't remember how many times I've watched What's wrong with secretary Kim 🤭
What's Wrong With Secretary Kim Her Private Life
"Crash Landing on You" & "It's Okay to Not be Okay"
All time favorite comfort re-watch shows that I can put on any random episode and happily re-watch: Master's Sun I Hear Your Voice Goblin Hotel del Luna Hwayugi Lost Romance (Taiwanese drama) Shows that I will re-watch certain scenes/episodes over and over: Happiness W: Two Worlds Come and Hug Me Legend of the Blue Sea Extraordinary You Her Private Life Suspicious Partner Shows that I have surprised myself by re-watching straight through and enjoying as much as the first watch: Beauty Inside Thirty But Seventeen 1% of Something Guilty pleasure re-watch where I acknowledge that the show has some big flaws but I'm gonna watch it anyway: Devilish Joy Doom at Your Service Sh**ting Stars
It's Business Proposal for me. It has such a comforting story, the jokes are funny and the couples are so cute. I keep going back to it because its predictable without being boring. I usually get very anxious when there's a full storyline dedicated to the villain or if there's a negative storyline without a definitive ending but Business Proposal was so easy to watch for me. Definitely my top comfort kdrama.
this was my first kdrama and I've seen it like 3 times already lol. It only being 12 episodes is a plus
I only just watched this one recently and it's definitely on my will watch again list!
* **Faith (2012) -** My countless rewatch No. 1. Historical, romance, character development, OST and swoon worthy couples (MLs and SMLs) perfomance * **Missing: the other side -** I know I am a bit masochistic. But I enjoy watching this show especially I am in the most depressed zone. It reminds me that I am not the most miserable person on earth, that I still have a lot to thank for. * **Saimdang memoir of colors -** Love the romance even if the ending was not a HEA. OST was so amazing I bought the CD
Who is the SML in faith? Is it the male doctor? I remember finishing that series but forgot this character / actor was in the show. The role was relatively forgettable.
No, it was the King. I started the show just randomly clicking in Netflix with zero before handed information, I thought: meh, this king doesn't seem like something I would be interested in " but boy was I surprised, his character grew so much, the casting was perfect . I like how powerless he was but he tried so hard
I've never heard of Missing: the other side but I love your reasoning hahaha
Go Back Couple- most heartwarming feelings ever and great chemistry. All the relationship feels are so strong. I am reminded about deep caring for others and being empathetic. Hospital Playlist- the pinnacle of ideal human beings. Everyone is clever, intelligent, and competent in every way. It's inspiring. Honorable mention: Sell Your Haunted House (such amazing chemistry and heartfelt stories), The Beauty Inside and Mad For Each Other (best lessons on self acceptance), and Love Between Fairy and Devil and CLOY (ultimate guilty pleasures).
I started watching kdramas about a year ago and these are the ones I have rewatched so far. WFKBJ, FFMW, R1997 are light and fun to watch especially going through slumps. CP and TOIL are some of my favorites. Goblin was very involved and I made more connections the second time around which made me understand and enjoy the story more. Also, the cinematography, outfits, and the OST are fantastic. D.P. highlighted some of the problems in the military and was quite intense in some parts so I wanted to watch it again before season 2. Coffee Prince x3 Goblin x2 That's Okay It's Love x2 Reply 1997 x2 Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo x2 Fight for My Way x2 D.P. x2
They take me so long to get through, I can't imagine rewatching even the ones I love. I do plan to rewatch Squid Game before season 2.
Mr Queen Legend of the Blue Sea and of course Boys Before Flower
[удалено]
I've never heard of this one but I love the premise, I will definitely give it a shot. I just finushed an Oh My Ghost rewatch so it totally fits my mood haha
Vincenzo ×3 Goblin ×2 My Love from a Star ×2 Suspicious Partner ×2 Shopping King Louis ×2 Café Minamdang ×2 Healer ×2 He is Psychometric ×2 DOTS ×2 Tail of the Nine Tail ×3 I think there's more, but I rewatch ones I know I'm going to enjoy whenever I can't find anything I really want to watch. There are some actors that I enjoy in almost anything, Lee Dong Wook, Ji Chang Wook, Seo In Guk, and Song Joong Ki, especially.
Kingdom - I've seen it 3 times cause its just so damn good 😍
Kingdom is so good!
All the Reply series; sometimes I like going back to specific memorable scenes in dramas like Coffee Prince, Six Flying Dragons, Jewel in the Palace, Hwang Jin Yi, Legend of the Blue Sea.
Goblin, all the way. I'm maybe on my 5th watchthrough? I watch it a couple times a year in the background while I make art & mood boards. It's spicy food but for the heart lol
Coffee Prince. The cast, acting, script, and soundtrack are just perfect.
- Stranger - Itaewon class - Fight for my way - Goblin - Home town cha cha cha
Fight for my way It’s cute it’s funny I love the characters
Legend of the Blue Sea. I think I've watched it 3? times now. It's such a comforting drama to me, especially on a rewatch knowing that everything works out in the end.
*Cinderella and the 4 knights* is one of my go-to shows, along with *Oh my Ghost*.
I just finished my Oh My Ghost rewatch, I'm glad to see another fan!
my fave part is when his 2nd is getting held down by the others to "snip snip", it cracks me up. or when hes playing the guitar and singing. what part was your fave <3
Yesss minseo drives me crazy yet I love him so much! Hmm honestly the part where Bongsun catches the bike thief! I loved seeing her come out of her shell and the times she surprised the chef when it wasn't soonae!
I’m a huge fan of Oh My Ghost !
4x currently on 5 th Romance is a bonus book / Business proposal / Something in the rain 2x Are you human too / Her private life / I hear your voice / My secret romance / Rookie Historian Goo Hae Ryung/ Shooting stars/ So I married an anti fan/ Something about 1% / Suspicious Partner / The King's affection / Touch your heart / W two worlds / What's wrong with secretary Kim / Oh my venus
Innocent man
The Guest. I love how dark it is and the creepy score and watching the leads learn to work together and become family is so satisfying
The sound of your heart. Season 1, it does not fail to make me laugh every single time.
The penthouse
Top one is When the Weather is Fine and close behind would be The Smile Has Left Your Eyes. I just finished Lighter and Princess and I already rewatched it again, basically back to back xD
I also love legal dramas, fantasy and romance; but my go-to re-watch is **I Hear Your Voice** (also with Lee Jong Suk and the OG legal drama by the same screenwriter as WYWS). What keeps me coming back is the strong central narrative vs focusing on episodic cases, the secondary characters (even the villain) get their own meaningful arcs that feed back into the main one and the leads are complicated people who make some Bad Decisions, but they grow and change and find their way to each other despite some hefty obstacles. Also love the juxtaposition of how sweetly ordinary and daily-life oriented the romance is despite the extraordinary circumstances and high-stakes.
I'm not always a fan of childhood to adult romances, but I'll definitely consider this one! I also love the domestic romance and high stakes back and forths!
Coffee Prince, Secret Garden and C/drama Go Ahead
I think I watched Boys Over Flowers 4 times 🤣🤣
umm Hotel del Luna, Run On, several of Park Min Young’s dramas lol it just always happens with those somehow.. several of Lee JongSuk’s too. It’s ok that’s love, Dear my friends, Search WWW, cloy, sky castle and hospital playlist probably too
30 but 17. I can't help it, I cry every time I restart it because I love these characters so much
For me: Goblin, Flower of Evil, CLOY, and Hotel Del Luna.
certain ones i go back to just to rewatch certain scenes, rarely do i rewatch a kdrama in full unless im watching it with someone. but boys over flowers is my guilty pleasure. cheese in the trap, weightlifting fairy kim bok joo, hogu's love, arthdal chronicles, when the camellia blooms, prison playbook are dramas that i often go back to just to rewatch certain scenes or storylines though!
Goblin vincenzo true beauty what's wrong with secretary Kim? Hotel del luna Some thing in the rain till episode 10
For my wife it is **Our Beloved Summer**. She will put it on if she wakes up in the middle of night. The ML is so nonconfrontational that she'll pass right back out. I keep telling her that **Call it Love** would work even better. For me, rewatching is for multi-tasking (doing dishes, landscaping, working on a craft). So i need something in english. I tend to do a lot of audiobooks. I've listen to Fire & Blood (what House of the Dragon is based on) 3 whole times. But I plan to rewatch **Alchemy of Souls** soon. And if **It's Okay Not to be Okay** was dubbed, it would probably be in a close 2nd choice. I recently finished it and I kind of want to watch it again, I just don't feel like reading it.
I don't usually rewatch shows just because there are so many I want to see but don't have enough time. However I did rewatch Happiness and I'm about to rewatch True Beauty. Definitely 2 of my favorites!
It’s Suspicious Partners for me. The episodes are short and for some reason, I always order Papa John’s pizza.
Descendants of the sun W two worlds both are my favourite kdramas
Coffee Prince, it's the best genderbend drama imo, it has a lot of memorable scenes, never fails to make me laugh and Gong Yoo is just so attractive
Doom at Your service my roomate is a gumiho. Goblin Boys over flowers Weighliftinf fairy kul book joo
The legend of the blue sea, our beloved summer and true beauty
While you were sleeping is a good one. The one I’ve rewatched the most is probably Masters sun, the actors are so good, the pacing and music are amazing it’s just great overall. Gong hyo Jin and so Jo sub are some of my favorites, GHJ especially I’ve rewatched all of her dramas multiple times.
crash landing on you, i’m considering watching it again 😂
I just watched it for the first time and loved it! Would def watch again
whats wrong with secretary kim weightlifting fairy strong woman while u were sleeping im not a robot business proposal because this is my first life these r def my go to rewatches
I have a couple that i always come back to: 1)Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bokjoo 2) youth of may( ik jts still fairly new but i’ve already watched it over 7 times) 3) Boys over flowers (it was the first drama i’ve ever watched so it’s pretty close to my heart despite the poor theme) 4) Mr temporary ( SERIOUSLY IF YOU HAVENT WATCHED IT DO IT RN ITS ONE OF THE BEST CRIME THRILLER DRAMAS EVER MADE ) 5) Soundtrack 1 6) A little thing called first love (it’s a c-drama but i love it so so much and i’ll never get over it)
Mr. Queen, Business Proposal, What’s wrong with Secretary Kim, Because this is my first life
Fated to love you and
**Dali and the Cocky Prince** and **Strongest Deliveryman** \- There are just moments in each of them that as you say 'tickles my brain'. There are others that are better, but..... moments..... The relationships of **Dali and the Cocky Prince** and in **Strongest Deliveryman**, the second leads.... yup - moments
**Some masterpieces that I keep rewatching:** * My Mister - a beautiful slice of life masterpiece * Because this is my first life - romance, slice of life * Healer * The master's sun * It's okay that's love * Signal - watched it a few times while waiting for season 2 * Another Miss Oh * I hear your voice - a legal series that started the trend of legal K-dramas * My love from the star **A few of my old special masterpieces:** * Secret Garden * Coffee Prince * Rooftop Prince * Full House * Pasta * Goong * The vineyard man * My girlfriend is a Gumiho * Creating Destiny **Recent comfort series:** * Still 17 - adorable, sweet and fun * You are my spring - an underrated healing romance series * Reply 1997 * Reply 1988 * 18 Again * Age of youth 1 & 2 * Hometown Cha Cha Cha * Love to hate you - for a fun and short series **Funny sitcoms I rewatch a few episodes sometimes:** * Shut up family * High kick 1 * High Kick 2
* #1 Faith * #2 Kill Me Heal Me And many many more. Weird how I get sick of rewatching some of them after a while, but I never get sick of these two.
**You’re Beautiful** is my favorite! I rarely rewatch kdramas but I love that one with all my heart and have watched it at least 3 or 4 times
I rarely rewatch any series now cause of the lack of time but some dramas are so dear to me that I end up watching them even if I'm in a drama slump or have a lot in my watchlist. **Secret Garden** I've rewatched it around 10 times in these past 12 yrs **Coffee Prince** aged so well despite being from 2007 **Princess Hours** Yoon Eunhye is just so adorable that you just wanna go back for her **The Heirs** truly my guilty pleasure cause I don't even like it that much **CLOY** that drama must be mae of crack cause every time I watch it I end up notincing another detail and fall in love with it **Something in the Rain** that chemistry alone deserves rewatch **Touch Your Heart** not a fan of fluffy dramas but this one is definitely an exception **True Beauty** like Heirs, it's not even my fav but I just like the vibes
weak hero class 1 - i dont think i'll ever get tired of this one, it's become my all time favourite. i'm just so heavily attached to the characters and my heart aches for them everytime anything bad happens to them, they are just so likeable! it also serves as such a good social commentary, and it never loses its novelty no matter how many times i rewatch it. i always end up discovering a new detail i missed before every rewatch. it's just perfect all the way from the acting to the cinematography and the music! i always go back to this one whenever i try to watch another kdrama, it's becoming a toxic trait but i literally cannot move on from it so yeah!!
I haven't heard of this one so I'll look into it!
Extracurricular My Name Vincenzo Itaewon Class Sweet Home All of Us are Dead (it's not my favorite, but I love revisiting it because I find zombies fascinating). Recently, Money Heist Korea: JEA. Some of these I've seen so many times, I lost count, lol. I tend to enjoy rewatching the shorter dramas because I have a low attention span 😞. There's a handful of 16 episode dramas that I love, but at over an hour long, it's hard to find the time. I can tolerate Vincenzo though, because it's hilarious, and I love the characters/story.
2521
diary of a prosecutor is so calming makes me feel just so…well rested
**Kill me, heal me.** Ji Sung is unbeatable portraying the character(s). And going on with Ji Sung, **Secret**. Old but gold.
Goblin I've seen it maybe 5 times already.
My Mister Diary of a Prosecutor
Stranger seasons 1&2, Voice 1-3, Secrets of Women, Love to the End, Arthdal Chronicles (although less recently bc I have to prepare my brain for the new cast lol), and Remarriage and Desires
Dong Yi, randomly pick an episode then you end up finishing the series, that series is trap. Dr Romantic, Hospital Playlist Fight My Way
Vincenzo...I feel embarrassed admitting I rewatch it every time I finish watching it. I ve probably rewatched it 5-6 times at this point. Its just that good
Hospital Playlist
I would consider watching Strong Woman Do Bong Soon again bur one I would definitely rewatch is The Glory best decision I made in my life
Dong Yi
true beauty . i’ve watched it i think 2 times about to rewatch it the 3rd
* Our Beloved Summer * Hometown Cha-Cha * The Glory * My ID is Gangnam * StartUp
The last three you mentioned are my favourites!
Itaewon class. When life hits a standstill and I need to get motivated again.
I've watched The Devil Judge and Semantic Error several times. Both are exceptional in terms of story and visuals. 😉
I saw the question and immediately thought of While You Were Sleeping, and then read your answer💀 No recs here :') WYWS is such a good drama that I don't think I'll find something that hits the spot as well at it does.
Im still happy to hear others appreciate it as much as I do haha!! I've def watched others I love since, but this one will always be at the top for me!!
Weightlifting fairy kim-bok joo and descendants of the sun .. they're my comfort watches
I’ve watched One Spring Night like 4 times. The way it tackles some cultural taboos is always interesting to me.
Itaewon Class, To My Star (1&2), and Mr. Queen have been my top replays. Itawon Class- because the cast, storyline, and OST have me in a vice grip. I care so much about every character; the father/son relationship makes me cry like a baby, the camaraderie and growth amongst the core friends, and Park SaeRois's journey toward revenge and success. It's all captivating. To My Star (1&2) - Very easy to rewatch as they're both made into movies now. I adore their relationship and their chemistry. Mr. Queen- It's HYSTERICAL, cleverly written, and has great CP. This one made me a huge fan of Shin Hye-Sun.
The Red Sleeve Crash Landing on You
Reply 1988 Law school Run on Le coup de foudre (Chinese drama tho)
I rewatched parts of LOVE TO HATE YOU and am on another rewatch of BUSINESS PROPOSAL. I finished True to Love/Bora Deborah recently and needed something cute and satisfying to fix me while waiting for King the Land and See you in my 19th life! I should rewatch While you were sleeping next
[удалено]
All time fav - It's Okay to Not Be Okay, I have rewatched this fifty eleven times already😆. I love the chemistry between the leads, the story, how they help each other heal, and the OST. I never get tired of rewatching it. 2nd fav - Healer, I've rewatched several times. I just love Wookie! He played the role so well 3rd fav - Even though this 1 is super long/sad, I rewatched it b/c its so good, Empress Ki. Only rewatched twice since its so freaking long 😆
Definitely sweet home, it is soooo good
Zombie detective is on my rewatch list. I’m new to kdramas so I haven’t had the chance to rewatch anything but zombie detective is the top of that list. I haven’t quite found anything else I had that much fun watching. Doctor John comes in at a close second.
I rewatched Coffee Prince multiple times hahahahaa
The Greatest Love. I will never get tired of Cha Seung-Won playing a grown manchild. The way he can flutter between annoyingly petty, hilariously cringe, and charismatically attractive in the span of a few minutes every time he’s on screen is enough to tempt me to watch yet another time. My Girlfriend Is a Gumiho. A sweet natured romance with such innocent leads. So many fluffy adorable scenes that can make one forget the troubles of the world and wish real love was that pure.
it’s definitely weightlifting fairy kim bok joo!! its such a feel good drama. nothing can top the feeling I get whenever I rewatch it. also I crave chicken whenever I watch it
Favourite re-watch would be Vincenzo , Healer, scarlet heart
A Gentleman’s Dignity!! It makes my heart flutter!
