Korean Dramas Worth Watching


Many Americans think of Korean dramas as lame shows. 
Some Korean Dramas can, in fact, be weird and pretty lame. 
But most are worth watching. 
These dramas show the social structure and expectations in Korean society, 
the ways Koreans live, and universal themes and morals. 

These are the Korean dramas I found to be most entertaining and worth watching: 
* The list is in alphabetical order. 

1. Dae Jang Geum - is a historical, fictional drama about a kitchen cook.


2. Dream High - is a drama about teenagers striving to achieve their dreams. 

3. Golden Bride - is a drama about a Vietnamese woman coming to live in Korea. It tells of the hardships and happiness she faces. 


4. High Kick Through the Roof - is a sitcom about several Korean families. 


5. Moon Embracing the Sun - is a historical, fictional drama about love between a prince and a girl. 


6.  Princess Hours - is a drama about a girl who becomes a Korean princess after she gets engaged to a Korean prince who goes to her school. 


7. .Pure in Heart - is a drama about a young woman who at the end meets her love. 


8. Rooftop Prince - is a drama about an ancient prince time traveling to present day Seoul, Korea and meeting a modern girl and falling in love with her. 


9. Stairway to Heaven - is a drama about family, hatred, love, and jealousy. 


10. You're Beautiful - is a drama about a girl who pretends to be a guy to be part of an idol group of boys. 

These dramas were all very popular in Korea. (and overseas) I recommend them!
