Second Chance Romance (
I love second chance romance dramas. The emotional rollercoaster journey of the two past lovers trying to rectify their mistakes and finding solace in one another again. The reason I made this list is because Even though I have watched more than 150 dramas I cried my eyes out for 4 or 5 dramas only and they were all second chance romances. That is why I am a fan of Break up/ Make up dramas. But I don't like it when there is multiple breakups. I love the idea of couple slowly recognizing how precious their past love is after they lost it.

9. My Secret Hotel
Korean Drama - 2014, 16 episodes
In this drama the FL and ML got divorced 7 years ago because of some misunderstandings and other pressures. But here the FL actually started to like another person and entered in a relationship with him. I didn't like that even though it is natural after 7 years and she eventually realized her feelings towards the ML later on and cleared the misunderstandings.

13. Angel Eyes
Korean Drama - 2014, 20 episodes
Loved the beginning of the drama. ML and FL were each other's first love. But the ML had to leave for US for the treatment of his younger brother after the death of his mother. FL was in the operation theatre for her cornea transplantation operation. So ML couldn't say good bye to her also All his letters were confiscated by her father. So having no contact with the ML for years she entered in a relationship with a young doctor. That is when ML comes back. So there is a lot of drama going on. I would have loved the story lot more if they haven't added lot of cliché dramas towards the end. -
