Reply1997 Autumn's Concerto In Time With You My Lucky Star Queen S.O.P Rooftop Prince Heartstrings
1. I Need Romance. It was basically the Korean version of "Sex & the City". "I Need Romance" was of the few dramas that realistically portrayed what a break up is like. Break ups are messy and you end up doing dumb shit because you're hurt. I loved the chemistry and friendship between the female leads. Their stories drew you in. Best of all, the kiss scenes were hot instead of awkward or docile. Loved it! 2. Reply 1997. This drama beautifully portrayed adolescence in a fun but thoughtful way. Every episode had me laughing but it also had me reminiscing about my past friendships and relationships 3. Chuno. An absolutely brillant historical drama with 2 amazing leading men ( Oh Ji Ho & Jang Hyuk). Loads of action and a great love story.
MARS--Zhou Vic plays twins :) and it's a great story that addresses delicate issues Piece-- because I am watching it and these are amazing young actors. I expect we will be seeing a lot more from them in the future you should get to know them now! Nodame Cantibile---the music is great and the story is funny and sweet Warrior Baek Dong Soo--- If you only watch one Historical watch this one. you won't regret it. It Started with a Kiss---everyone else has seen it. It's mandatory for all drama addicts.
King 2 Hearts- I wasn't expecting much of this drama but it just drew me right in. The acting from all the characters was really amazing, they really made me feel, made me happy, even made me cry. The romance and love between Ha Ji Won's and Lee Seung Ki's character is one of the best romances I've seen in a drama. They had a lot of chemistry, and the love was so real, their characters would do anyone for the other. There is so much to love about this drama, so do watch it! My most favorite drama yet.
Secret garden (many memorable scenes) 49 days (best fantasy drama) Princess man (very romantic drama) Unexpected you (this best family drama) Padam Padam (try this drama :D )

Only one is korean drama in your list - Warrior Baek Dong Soo
----------------

For me MUST drama is Star in My Heart bc it was one of first famous korean dramas what started all this kdrama hype. So..if you havent see this drama - you miss basics. And it is really good one - story, acting and soundtrack are all well done.
Here are my all time favorite / must watch k-dramas.
All of them are highly recommended for the same reason: "deep feelings, swift wits, fascinating acting skills, impressive directing style, touching story"

Revenge/Buhwal
Beethoven Virus
Jejoongwon
Queen Seon-deok
The Princess' Man
Rooftop Prince
My Girl
Capital Scandal
Personal Taste
He Who Cant Marry
Dong yi
Kingdom of Wind
Sign

Shut Up Flower Boy Band! is my all time favorite K-drama ever. Its full of heart, music, and the most awesome bromance ever. EVER. The acting is great ( I will ,now and forever, have a monster crush on Sung Joon). The music is even better. I thought it really brought something new into the K-drama world, and I've never fallen in love with a show like I did for this. It's a must-see.
A Man's Story: Because in the end your not sure who won. Because everyone sticks to their guns no matter how annoying they become and they don't change characters randomly. If they do change it isn't so great or awkward. The storyline is just fascinating with everyone being a mixture of good and bad at one point. No one can be defined as the good guy o the bad guy since they all have their own dirty deeds. It's such a great drama. ^^ In my opinion it's one of the best revenge stories out there because it doesn't continue on forever and it ends, leaving you with a cliffhanger actually. But still, it's a good drama that isn't complicated with its revenge either. It's very direct and mysterious at the same time but not complicated enough that you'll get lost. So win-win to me. XD

lol you're so picky Raincat! I see it's in the Korean thread but the poster didn't specify Korean... and other peeps posted Japanese dramas so...
I still haven't seen Star In My Heart...it's on my ptw list though.
Some kdramas that I consider must watches are:
Dal Ja's Spring
What's up Fox?
Shining Inheritance
White Christmas
Prosecutor Princess
shut up: flower boy band GAKSITAAAAAAAL xD Reply 1997 King2hearts rooftop prince city hunter secret garden my girl you're beautiful dream high 1
oh and for Japanese dramas~ i totally recommend nobuta wo produce!! <33 its enough to say this drama was the reason i got here in the first place :) not to forget... 1 litre of tears, hana kimi and absolute boyfriend are really good too !
King of Baking, Kim Tak Gu is honestly a really good drama, thirty episodes long but had me captivated the whole time. It's from back in 2010 so a lot of actors in it were newbies yet they did a fantastic job. It had a 50% viewer rating if that means anything to you. Don't let it being about bread stop you from watching it, because there is so much more to it. It has a revenge kind of plot and so many villains who are so great, best of all I love Tak Gu's character; he made me have tears of sadness and happiness. I only completed this drama a few days ago, and am already to re-watch it. xD
unrelated to discussion but is that ch tae hyun in your picture? Which drama/film is it from?
