For Ko Hyun-jung, I suggest Queen’s Classroom, or if you have a LOT of time and like sageuks, watch her totally upstage the queen in Great Queen Seondeok.
I love him in Kundo, Golden Slumber, Vanishing Time, My Brilliant Life (with Song Hye Kyo), Violent Prosecutor, Master, The Haunters and 1987 (special participation). I wanna watch The Priests (horror ) but I’m a scaredy-cat so I’m still mustering up courage to see it 😂
I challenged myself to type this without googling and thinking too hard.
Actresses: Go Ah Sung, Bae Doo Na, Park Eun Bin, Jung So Min, Jang Nara
Actors: Jung Kyung Ho, Yoo Ah In, Kim Soo Hyun, Seo In Guk, Kwak Dong Yeon
Wow. This is hard. Here’s my list, based on how I thought they immersed themselves in the roles that I’ve seen them in and how moved I was in those performances.

….Ha haha hahaha it would probably take me at least 3 years to watch all of these. Stay tuned to see which one I pick, or if I abandon list and choose something completely different (would not be the first time), or if I just keep live watching against my better judgement.
Feel free to attempt to sway me in the comments below 😄.
I really liked Chicago Typewriter and Someday or One Day, watched those a while ago and they’re still fresh in my memory. And Mystic pop-up bar is a easy breezy watch!
Some of yours are on my list too! I don’t know if I’ll ever come around to watch Gaksital or TWDR (too many episodes), but I’ll definitely end up watching Just Dance and Radiant Office, because Beanies say those are so much fun
Haha! Totally can relate to this, I have a list too! I would recommend Prison Playbook, Romantic Dr Teacher Kim and if you dont mind something abit throwback, my gf is a gumiho is a classic!! Haha!
My top picks (not solely based on lead actor although he is very good in both of these😅) are My Girlfriend Is A Gumiho and King2hearts. I’ve watched them both recently and really enjoyed – My Girlfriend Is A Gumiho in particular is a regular rewatch. It’s lovely.
Oh thank you for this post!
I was about to ask Beanies for help because as I was looking at MDL I realized I’ve watched 199 dramas and I want a good one to watch and make it 200.
Now I can come here again and again to check what Beanies like and recommend^^
I also like your list. I haven’t watched some of these dramas n I feel excited to check them out.
the three below got perfect score 10/10 for different reasons
Misaeng : office drama that is so relatable it hurts
Someday or one day : time travel + poignant love story , but also friendship, very good , it hurt a bit too
Pegasus market : blatant humor I like, might not be everyone cup of tea
Last night, after waiting for what felt like forever for new Brahms episodes, I decided that the reasonable thing to do (instead of watching said new episode) would be to binge clips of Tempted on YT because Woo Do Hwan is pretty.
This actually looks like a decent drama if you only watch the cute scenes. I was almost tempted (heh) to watch the thing and had to go read reviews to talk myself out of it 😆.
From what I’ve read, it sounds like a big soapy mess. But watching clips of WDH and Joy without context was enjoyable enough. I actively avoided clips of KMJ because his character does not seem likable.
Everything and everyone was fine in the show with the exception of Joy, and the characters of Kim Min Jae x Moon Ga Young deserve their own show– they were sooooo underutilized
*Ops, had a tag accident that made me delete previous comment
YT videos probably condensed all the good stuff in this drama. It starts with a bunch of annoying chaebol characters making up lies – it takes a while for the viewer to warm up to them and realize that the true idiots are the adults around them. And then uri not-so-bad chaebols are hit over the head with makjang twists of fate OVER and OVER again, all the way to the bland end of the ordeal… By the last episode, it felt like the whole cast – and it is a really good cast! – was just going through the motions and secretly wondering how much longer would they need to keep squeezing tears out.
Can’t really justify why I watched the whole thing, it’s the power of WDH
For me, KMJ was real star in this show tbh. I thought he did an amazing job, especially with the shitty character he was given. However, WDH and MGY did pretty swell too.
Trust me, Tempted is terrible, horrible, not good at all (except that three of the young actors are irresistible but this was a bad use of their talent).
Hiii! Im still mad with JTBC for deleting other vids (in youtube) during the show though it could be due to copyrights? Anyway, Im happy some saved them and made it into a playlist, I still listen to it 😀
Ugh I was so sad when those videos disappeared! I believe most of them are still available on Naver if you search 슈퍼밴드 though. And if all else fails, the full show is still available to watch as well.
A special thanks to @jorobertson for posting this OST on the wall the other day which led me to add it to my playlist which led me to google Ko Woo-rim which led me to discover he is in a group called Forestella which led me to this YT hole:
Did you know this? I just found it on wikipedia: There are many versions of Arirang – and different interpretations of its meaning – this is one version, (the one I like) “… the song goes back to the 1600s when a despotic emperor was imprisoning people right and left who had opposed him. He hung these prisoners from tall pine trees on top of the hill of Arirang, located outside Seoul. Legend states that one of the prisoners condemned to death, walked his final miles singing of how much he loved his country, and how much he hated to say goodbye to it. It was soon picked up by the other prisoners, where it became a Korean tradition that any man had the right to sing this song before his execution.”
Yes! I’ve noticed they usually have a set order of how they stand on stage so from their right (our left) it’s Ko Woorim, Kang Hyunho, Cho Mingyu, Bae Doohoon.
Woorim is the maknae (1995). He is a classically trained bass singer so he also does things like this: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oUwCX9x01xA
His speaking voice is also insanely low.
I have this weird thing with variety shows where I watch the first 1-3 episodes, thoroughly enjoy it, and then abandon it for no reason.
Coffee Friends, Little Forest, Roommate, and Traveler 2 are all just hanging out in my on hold list. The farthest I’ve gotten with one was It’s Dangerous Beyond the Blankets. That was the first variety I really sat down and watched, and I had such a blast with it. I watched the pilot and ep 1-7, but those last 3 eps are just left dangling. 🤷♀️
ha ha ha..
while i concur that coffee friends, little forest did start to go stale very quickly..
but (personally) beyond the blankets is literally the most boring reality show ever, except they had all these famous idols.. some exo guy, daniel etc..
😀 .. but overall, yeah.. not finding anything worth sticking too.. only 1n2d s4 going strong for now (and initial episodes of sask3)
🥺🥺🥺 as someone often watching variety shows , I feel for you : it ‘s such a pity you can’t enjoy them as a whole.
maybe change your pace, just one ep per week ? variety ep are 1h30 usually so not as “binge-able” as drama.
I really enjoyed Coffee Friends, Little forest was nice and I grew fond of the children.
It’s Dangerous Beyond the Blankets was a nice ride, relate to a lot since I am a homebody ^^’.
Hoping you’ll find a variety show suiting your taste 🙂 !
I have thought about trying the one ep a week thing! Maybe a Sunday afternoon watch?
I do eventually want work my way through the ones I’ve started. Like I said, I really enjoyed the little bit that I did see of them. I think their ep length does hold me back a bit, and I just keep getting distracted by dramas :).
I also found It’s Dangerous really relatable. I just loved how awkward they were with each other at first. Sometimes it’s just nice to be reminded that there are people out there who are capable of being just as awkward as I am 😂. I found the first half of the first episode of the pilot particularly hilarious because they were literally trying to hide from each other there for a while 😆.
“they were literally trying to hide from each other there for a while ” …might have done that in the past, so I laughed at them and myself ^^’
I watch 1n2d and I live alone , have to wait a little for subs, but it’s a weekly dose and rendez-vous 1n2d for Monday evening (if I don’t have time to watch the entire ep, I resume on Tuesday evening), for I live alone it’s available during the weekend, either watching the whole ep or in 2 or 3 parts ^^. On other days, I usually watch dramas (or sometimes other variety shows x)).
You definitely need a nice guy falling for a nice girl drama. Or a nice guy falling for a mean girl, but falling for him makes her better. (Not that it’s you, but you want him to personify himself with the lead.) Think of dramas you like that for that mold. When he sees you enjoying it, he’ll like it more too!

Did you know this? I just found it on wikipedia: There are many versions of Arirang – and different interpretations of its meaning – this is one version, (the one I like) “… the song goes back to the 1600s when a despotic emperor was imprisoning people right and left who had opposed him. He hung these prisoners from tall pine trees on top of the hill of Arirang, located outside Seoul. Legend states that one of the prisoners condemned to death, walked his final miles singing of how much he loved his country, and how much he hated to say goodbye to it. It was soon picked up by the other prisoners, where it became a Korean tradition that any man had the right to sing this song before his execution.”

Thank you for these. They are so beautiful. Their range is stunning, but I love Ko Woo-rim’s bass most of all.

Loved this. Ko Woo-rim is on the right, I guess, from his fabulous voice.

Yes! I’ve noticed they usually have a set order of how they stand on stage so from their right (our left) it’s Ko Woorim, Kang Hyunho, Cho Mingyu, Bae Doohoon.
Woorim is the maknae (1995). He is a classically trained bass singer so he also does things like this: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oUwCX9x01xA
His speaking voice is also insanely low.

My favorite Suga song and also just one of my favorite BTS songs in general. The emotion, the lyrics, the use of metaphor, how it builds in intensity.

Rewatching this while waiting for subs. Nostalgic and even cuter than I remembered. This was my introduction to Min Jae.

I have this weird thing with variety shows where I watch the first 1-3 episodes, thoroughly enjoy it, and then abandon it for no reason.
Coffee Friends, Little Forest, Roommate, and Traveler 2 are all just hanging out in my on hold list. The farthest I’ve gotten with one was It’s Dangerous Beyond the Blankets. That was the first variety I really sat down and watched, and I had such a blast with it. I watched the pilot and ep 1-7, but those last 3 eps are just left dangling. 🤷♀️

ha ha ha..
while i concur that coffee friends, little forest did start to go stale very quickly..
but (personally) beyond the blankets is literally the most boring reality show ever, except they had all these famous idols.. some exo guy, daniel etc..
😀 .. but overall, yeah.. not finding anything worth sticking too.. only 1n2d s4 going strong for now (and initial episodes of sask3)

🥺🥺🥺 as someone often watching variety shows , I feel for you : it ‘s such a pity you can’t enjoy them as a whole.
maybe change your pace, just one ep per week ? variety ep are 1h30 usually so not as “binge-able” as drama.
I really enjoyed Coffee Friends, Little forest was nice and I grew fond of the children.
It’s Dangerous Beyond the Blankets was a nice ride, relate to a lot since I am a homebody ^^’.
Hoping you’ll find a variety show suiting your taste 🙂 !

I have thought about trying the one ep a week thing! Maybe a Sunday afternoon watch?
I do eventually want work my way through the ones I’ve started. Like I said, I really enjoyed the little bit that I did see of them. I think their ep length does hold me back a bit, and I just keep getting distracted by dramas :).
I also found It’s Dangerous really relatable. I just loved how awkward they were with each other at first. Sometimes it’s just nice to be reminded that there are people out there who are capable of being just as awkward as I am 😂. I found the first half of the first episode of the pilot particularly hilarious because they were literally trying to hide from each other there for a while 😆.

“they were literally trying to hide from each other there for a while ” …might have done that in the past, so I laughed at them and myself ^^’
I watch 1n2d and I live alone , have to wait a little for subs, but it’s a weekly dose and rendez-vous 1n2d for Monday evening (if I don’t have time to watch the entire ep, I resume on Tuesday evening), for I live alone it’s available during the weekend, either watching the whole ep or in 2 or 3 parts ^^. On other days, I usually watch dramas (or sometimes other variety shows x)).

First, I need to get him into Kdrama and then introduce him to Kpop.. I’ve planned it like that!

That’s a good order of introduction. Probably how I would do it.

WhAT show are you introducing first? It should be something that reminds him of you or your love story, I think.

You definitely need a nice guy falling for a nice girl drama. Or a nice guy falling for a mean girl, but falling for him makes her better. (Not that it’s you, but you want him to personify himself with the lead.) Think of dramas you like that for that mold. When he sees you enjoying it, he’ll like it more too!
