I need some good romance/rom-com dramas with no supernatural/sci-fi elements of any kind. Korean/Chinese preferably. It can be angsty but the ending has to be happy. Thank you in advance! ^_^

Also, you can recommend movies that fit as well.

  • Hold On, My Lady: A female bandit is forced to marry a general's son.
  • Our Shiny Days: A unique school drama about the rivalry between Chinese music and Western music. Both the main leads are very cute characters.
  • Maids: A noble woman becomes a servant and overcomes adversity along the way.
  • My Fated Boy: An age gap romance between an office worker and a musician. There are some adorable flashbacks to their childhood in each episode.
  • Reply 1988: One of my favorite slice of life shows about teenage friends in the 80s. You can also check out Reply 1994 and Reply 1997 by the same director and screenwriter.
  • Yoo Na's Street: The male lead helps his criminal neighbors, including the female lead, become better people.
