My Top K-Dramas
I've been watching kdramas since 2013 and this is the list (in order) of the kdramas that have left an impression on me and will always have a place in my heart.
I'm only including kdramas i've watched at least twice* !! (Generally 1. while airing and 2. to rewatch). my list does change whenever I rewatch a new k-drama but that doesn't really happen all the time.
