Introducing the Top 3 Entertaining Dramas.

Top 3 Dramas That Are Fun to Rewatch

There are dramas that are enjoyable and fun no matter when you watch them, even if you watch them several times. These are dramas I personally recommend, and they’re great for people who haven’t seen them yet as well as for those who want to watch them again. I’ve carefully selected only the ones I think you really should see~

Descendants of the Sun

 

This is a love story between a doctor and a soldier. It also includes a doctor’s coming-of-age journey, camaraderie, and loyalty to national defense. It is a drama that deals with the weighty theme of the dignity of life from two different perspectives: the doctor, who saves lives by treating people, and the soldier, who protects life by taking lives.

As expected from a drama by Kim Eun-sook, the writer known for her memorable lines, this was an entertaining drama that also left a strong impression with its male lead, who made many women’s hearts flutter. I think it also made the idea of soldiers feel even more romantic~

Goblin

Goblin is a romance fantasy filled with a truly fantastical but somewhat wishful story. As I make these recommendations, it may seem like I’m only mentioning Kim Eun-sook’s dramas... but that’s because the lingering feeling her dramas leave behind, along with the lessons(?) within them, are so deeply moving that I end up recommending them : )

It was truly complete in the way it told the story of human life and death, and even what comes after death. I could clearly feel that Kim Eun-sook deeply and intently contemplated human life and tried to portray it in a weighty and profound way.

Mr. Sunshine, Secret Garden

Likewise, if I were to choose another enjoyable fantasy romance work, Secret Garden cannot be left out : ) The process of Kim Joo-won and Gil Ra-im, two incredibly charming characters, coming to understand their differences as their souls switch bodies, along with Kim Joo-won’s trauma being healed and his awakening to true love, was all so perfect.

And Mr. Sunshine, which is currently airing on tvN, is a drama that depicts the early 20th century and can be described as a confessional of the painful modern history of Korea.

A rich drama that captures just the right amount of Kim Eun-sook’s humor, seriousness, and loneliness!

I would also strongly recommend binge-watching this drama!

How about filling your free time with entertaining dramas that can feel unreal one day and so much like our own story another day, making it easy to get completely immersed~?

That concludes my Top 3 drama recommendations, from someone who feels like they’ll become a die-hard fan of Kim Eun-sook~
