Known as Korean dramas, K-dramas or dramas, South Korea’s famous productions bring the perfect mix of romance, drama and fantasy. This combination of genres in one work has gained a solid fan base not only in its country of origin, but also in many other places around the globe.

Still, this is just one of the reasons why this type of content awakens passion in those who watch it, as actors from different K-dramas responded to the Netflix Why dramas are so loved. Check out the 5 reasons in the list below!

1. Because it’s where dreams come true

Who has never wanted to meet their famous crush casually and have a romance at first sight? In dramas this is possible, since in these stories the craziest romantic fantasies take shape, as happens in “Doona!”, when Won-jun, a college freshman, discovers that he will share a student house with the K-pop singer very famous: Doona.

Doona, who is played by also singer Suzyis out of Won-jun’s reach, but as the actor Yang Se-jong argues, K-Romance series are special because it is when “a dream love can come to life”. Doona!, premieres on October 20th, only on Netflix.

2. Proves that opposites attract

Unlikely romance? We have it too! People who belong to different social statuses or different personalities, that is, those who had everything it took not to cross each other’s paths, become couples with totally irresistible love stories in K-dramas.

Cho Bo-ahwho plays public servant Lee Hong-jo in “Our Destiny”, a Korean drama that pairs a renowned lawyer with a humble public servant, who could be the key to breaking her family’s curse, reveals her penchant for romances of this type: “I love the traditional kind of romance with an unbreakable bond between two completely different people.”

3. Enmity can turn into love

Enemies can fall in love! This is what happens in “Sorriso Real”, with a rich hotel heir who hates fake smiles and one of his employees, known precisely for her irresistible smile.

In this production, former K-pop idols June It is Yoona they enchant on screen with their sizzling chemistry. “Isn’t a risky workplace romance always the best?” teases Jun-ho. “The emotions are so relatable and real because of the office environment. It could happen to you!”

4. Shows that love can transcend space and time

Can love last beyond life and death? Some dramas address the subject, using time jumps or resurrections, where couples prove to love each other unconditionally, repeating the romance even in other lives.

So much so that, Shin Hye-sunwho stars in “See You in the Next Life,” describes true love as a “powerful affection that is strong enough to destroy your afterlife and still keep your heart set on the same person.”

It’s worth remembering that in K-drama, Shin portrays a young woman who can infinitely reincarnate, but when her 18th life is cut short, she dedicates her new life to finding her childhood crush, now an adult, who doesn’t remember anything that happened.

Furthermore, with a similar plot, in “O Tempo Traz Você pra Me”, Jeon Yeo-been plays a woman who magically travels back in time to 1998, where she meets a man very similar to her late love. For Jeon, K-dramas can offer a lot of hope, as they show that “no matter how far back in time, no matter how different the person seems, if it’s destiny, then you will end up together.”

5. More than just a romantic comedy

Anyone who thinks that it is only through love that dramas survive is mistaken! That’s because they evolved into a beautiful mix of comedy, romance and even a little suspense, as happens in “Behind Your Touch”, where a psychic veterinarian and a detective join forces to solve cases in a small town, but end up discovering a Chilling mystery of a serial killer.

Thinking about that, Han Ji-minqueen of romantic comedies and who plays the protagonist with unusual power, jokes that the series is a “refreshing new approach to love”.
