‘Squid Game’
If you haven’t yet checked out Squid Game, which is set to become Netflix’s most-watched show ever, then here’s one more recommendation: This edge-of-your-seat Korean thriller on Netflix (opens in new tab) is definitely worth a look.

Fantasy Korean Dramas
These sci-fi/fantasy shows range from modern to historical, and the magical elements can either be hidden among day-to-day life or blown out to encompass tons of lore Game of Thrones-style (though minus the gore, most of the time). K-dramas also love a good fated romance, so expect some mystical love connections.
‘Goblin (Guardian: The Lonely and Great God)’
This series, written by Kim Eun-sook, is the fourth highest-rated Korean drama of all time. The fantasy romance is about a modern day goblin, Gong Yoo, who needs a human bride (Kim Go Eun) to end his cursed immortal life.

This show loosely reminds me of Ghostbusters, but with an eclectic group of characters who each possesses special abilities. The five-person group, called “Counter,” work at a noodle restaurant by day and at night, hunt down evil spirits who have escaped from the after life to go after humans.

Melodrama Korean Dramas
While many see “melodrama” and think of women in beautiful gowns slapping each other (and yes, that does show up), we consider the genre as anything involving heightened emotions of the non-romantic variety. Think intense jealousy, blood feuds, lifelong revenge plots, deep misery, and life-or-death situations. If you’re not lunging for the “Keep Watching” button, it’s not enough.
‘The Glory’
When Moon Dong-eun (played as a teen by Jung Ji-so) was in high school, she was severly bullied and assaulted by a group of classmates, led by the unrepentant Park Yeon-jin (Im Ji-yeon). The bullies run the aspiring architect out of school and leaves her with deep emotional scars, so much that she dedicates her life to getting revenge.
