3 of my absolute favorites are on here, number one being move to heaven.

also love our beloved summer (top 5 for sure), and 100 days my prince (top 10).

and from this list i still want to watch the glory, tale of the nine-tailed, and hometown cha cha cha. i started hometown once but nothing grabbed me but then instagram reels was like, are you sure? and now i have been convinced after this post.

i’m taking a massive road trip in july so i’ve decided to save all the netflix kdramas to watch on my phone for that including bloodhounds, the good bad mother, and the glory.

Our beloved summer is my favorite K-drama out of the 4 I've watched (Hometown Cha Cha Cha, Business Proposal and Crash landing on you being the other 3)

You will love Good/Bad Mother.

Solid choices OP! My favorite crime drama will always be Stranger, it made the NYT 2017 list of best shows for a reason (and it made me a Bae Doona Stan for life!). But I’m interested in inspector Koo though, as the genre is heavily man-driven.

I recently caught up on Crash Landing on you and it’s very funny and heartwarming, i recommend it. I kind of love bitchy female protagonists with a ~heart of gold lmao. Same as Hometown Cha cha, the first few episodes when Yoon Hye-jin hates everybody in town are so funny. I want more of this vein, If somebody has recommendations!

I loved season 1 of Stranger! The second season, idk. I just could not be assed to care about the power struggle between police and prosecution.

DEFINITELY give Inspector Koo a watch. It's really fun and has a good 'found family' at the center of it.

I love Crash Landing On You as well. The melodrama is a bit wild at times, but definitely a fun watch.

Thanks for the post. I'm new to this genre and your list is going to come in handy. I'm a few episodes into Extraordinary Attorney Woo and loving it so far.

Best "Everyone is a terrible person" - World of the Married, even the kids are pieces of shit lmao

I think my favorite of this genre is SKY Castle.

Well I guess there are like 3 characters who don't suck. But lol so many horrible people!!!
