Is there any particular thing you prefer? Just romance, some suspense, a bit of fantasy?

>>77044629
Posting these few first. They can be good because they have different styles that can ring to different people/mood.
Also I think most of BTS MV can be good. You can use any of them.

>>77052209
I really like the drama D-Day, it's about emergency doctors during a massive earthquake in Seoul. There's also some romance :3

>>77029183
this

>>77052290
I'd check it out. Are kdramas easy to torrent?

>>77053400
I will*

>>77051458
-Rooftop Prince-Romance, Fantasy and suspense, plot doesn't drag. It is great.
For just romance:
- She was pretty - very sweet story
- Boys Over Flowers - quite a bit of ham, but it is considered a classic
- You're beautiful - plot can drag at times, but still very engaging, plus lots of good music.
All of these dramas have great OSTs anyway.

>>77031177
Sounds sad, is the series that sad too??

>>77053400
I use viki.com. You can watch without paying, but with ads. The subscription is about $4 per month. you get no ads, and you can get into subbing the dramas in your native language. They also have a learn mode of subs, so you might actually be able to pick up some Korean on the way.

>>77053627
I forgot to add "Fated to Love You". Great drama. You'll be bawling your eyes out and laughing your ass off.

>>77034310
They have rap and rock too you know.

Why do so many kpop groups like EXO, Twice, Winner, BTS have Chinese or Japanese versions of their songs? I know some of their members are Chinese and Japanese but seems like a lot of unnecessary work.

>>77062288
I assume it's to appeal to those markets. Similar why some Korean actors appear also in Taiwanese and Chinese dramas and movies (haven't seen one in Japanese as of yet).

>>77059814

First one is hilarious, second one is pretty gross. Why do they like to dress them up as girls so much though? I never got that about Asian popculture.

>>77094050
I'm guessing because they do pass as females very well and maybe also they prefer to have guys rather than girls acting. But well, their societies are more like that, unlike here.

V is 1,79m with 20cm
