Makjang/Family Drama

As someone who enjoy those long ass torture drama, let me give my two cents on the Makjang/Daily/Family drama that I watched..

Note: I watched lots of drama and some of them I just can't really remember what happened so I can't really comment on them until I watch them again..

And also Family/Daily drama are usually Makjang but not all the time..

    1. Temptation of Wife

    Korean Drama - 2008, 129 episodes

    9.0

    I would like to say that this is the standard of Makjang and the best may I say. I really enjoy this with all the twists and turns this drama have and the suspense feeling even though it's not action is really great and I know it's long but please push through it because it's worth it.!

  • Beautiful Love, Wonderful Life

    2. Beautiful Love, Wonderful Life

    Korean Drama - 2019, 100 episodes

    8.0

    The first episode of this drama just grab my attention but gonna be honest I couldn't care less of Kim Seol Ah even though she was fine later on I still care less about her so you can skip some of her scenes, anyway I enjoyed this a lot because of the MC and her story, because even though her journey is hard and long, it is still a delight to watch because her character outlook just shine so much which is the main reason I enjoyed this a lot..

  • Home for Summer

    3. Home for Summer

    Korean Drama - 2019, 128 episodes

    8.5

    The drama that came to me by surprise, I was actually not expecting anything from this drama because of its low rating and bad reviews/comments but I'm glad I watched it because I enjoyed this and even though it's predictable to me, it didn't bother me that much because it makes me anticipate those scenes. Also the main couple is everything, I just enjoyed them so much and they're the heart of the show and the side couple is not bad too in fact I think they're kind of cute..

  • Sunny Again Tomorrow

    4. Sunny Again Tomorrow

    Korean Drama - 2018, 121 episodes

    7.5

    I don't have really anything to say to this drama rather than why the hell they focus too much on Ji Eun storyline where nobody cares >,< I mean the main couple is so cute and so strong but they decided to cut their screen time which hurt this drama a lot, so I'm really second guessing myself if I should recommend this one or not but since I enjoy the main couple a lot I guess I should, so my only advice is just skip Ji Eun storyline  HAHA

  • Marry Me Now?

    5. Marry Me Now?

    Korean Drama - 2018, 50 episodes

    8.5

    I'm gonna be honest the first part of this drama is rough  because of YoonHa story, I just feel like it's out of place and really just typical family drama which might not be that bad but because the other character is so interesting that part of the story really just feels too much but after that just push through it and you will have a good time watching this family, also each siblings story is really great and all of them are hilarious..

  • Mother of Mine

    6. Mother of Mine

    Korean Drama - 2019, 108 episodes

    8.0

    This drama is really similar to "Marry Me Now" and that's why I enjoyed both, it just that in this drama they have a strong start then kind of struggle towards the end, like the first part of the drama they have this interesting characters but towards the end it all went away maybe not all but still feels disappointed, but still not bad to watch, also out of the three siblings MiSun is the most skippable, MiHye is not bad actually kind of cute, and MiRi is great but dragged..

  • Legendary Witch

    7. Legendary Witch

    Korean Drama - 2014, 40 episodes

    8.5

    This drama just charmed me that's why this is one of my favorite family drama out there. The story of the girls is really interesting like individually I enjoyed them all and love them all character wise, also SooIn romance story-line was made for me from beginning to the end, well it has one problem but nevertheless still enjoyed it very much, also the girls here are smart and will also stand up for each other that's why I loved re-watching this drama a lot..

  • Bread, Love and Dreams

    8. Bread, Love and Dreams

    Korean Drama - 2010, 30 episodes

    9.0

    Not as long as the other drama but definitely makjang, this one is just really interesting and I enjoyed everything about it, well maybe not everything but close enough xD anyway I just enjoyed TakGoo very much, his journey is really fun to watch and also his relationship with other people I really enjoyed..

  • Shining Inheritance

    9. Shining Inheritance

    Korean Drama - 2009, 28 episodes

    9.0

    Another drama that have a slow start but you will learn to enjoy it and also I really love the MC and the grandma together, overall the story is what sold me maybe because I'm just a sucker for this kind of story-line with the MC where even though she struggle she always do her best and always doing the right thing, and also I really feel bad for JunSe, I was rooting for him..

    Side note: MC story-line reminds me of "TakGoo"..

  • Can You Hear My Heart

    10. Can You Hear My Heart

    Korean Drama - 2011, 30 episodes

    8.5

    This drama makes me feel warm, happy and sad, and the story just flows so well that I enjoyed it very much. And yes it's makjang, even so it is easy to watch that you can't help but to be attached to these characters..

    Side note: the four people that are involved in the romance story-line, I loved them so much character wise xD

  • Feast of the Gods

    11. Feast of the Gods

    Korean Drama - 2012, 32 episodes

    8.0

    This might not be for everyone but hear me out, my ship sailed and I'm here for it. And yes it's draggy but you will be entertain on what may happen next, so if like me, you like that ship, then go on board and watch this and watch them sail xD

  • Band of Sisters

    12. Band of Sisters

    Korean Drama - 2017, 68 episodes

    7.5

    Gonna be honest I would not recommend this drama unless you really enjoy or fond of makjang, story wise this reminds me of "Legendary Witch" just not better but still each storyline is kind of interesting just inconsistent..

  • The Promise

    13. The Promise

    Korean Drama - 2016, 102 episodes

    7.5

    Makjang at its finest, this drama made me mad so much but it teach me that even though I want to kick and punch them I should not but else cry and shout at them to disappear HAHA anyway this drama is so complicated like why lol, also judge me all you want but I like TaeJoon yes I know but still can't help it. My only problem is how the writes handle the character other than Nayeon is disappointing, I also want more connection but the end didn't give it to me that's why I'm kind of disappointed..

  • Yellow Boots

    14. Yellow Boots

    Korean Drama - 2012, 108 episodes

    7.5

    Another full blown makjang with Lee Yoo Ri and actually it's kind of similar to "The Promise" but I kind of enjoyed this more, and what I like about this is how the MC stand up and face off everything and not giving up, and also the side couple I don't know but I find it kind of cute. And yes it's long and yes the first part will frustrate you but push through it because you will enjoy this..

  • Angel's Revenge

    15. Angel's Revenge

    Korean Drama - 2014, 103 episodes

    7.0

    I want to recommended this because of Jisuk and its romance on early episode but honestly I don't know, so anyway this has great start but got worst towards the end, I think after episode 70 you can fast forward because you will still know what's going on..

  • Unasked Family

    16. Unasked Family

    Korean Drama - 2019, 123 episodes

    7.0

    This drama was fine, its not bad and its not good either, there's nothing much to say about this drama rather than the in-laws are too much way too much, anyway I think the best part of this drama is the episodes towards the end and the romance that include Bong CheonDong, he is the best part xD so if you guys can pass or skip the in-laws then go ahead and watch this or just watch this because of CheonDong lol..

  • The Secret of My Love

    17. The Secret of My Love

    Korean Drama - 2017, 100 episodes

    7.0

    This drama is fine I guess like the first part was an easy watch, it's not amazing but you just want to continue watching it, but then again it drag on the latter part which is sad. Overall the MC is bad but the romance department of this drama is enjoyable so watch it for the romance if you like..

  • Lovers in Bloom

    18. Lovers in Bloom

    Korean Drama - 2017, 120 episodes

    7.5

    First thing first, this drama is good and fun, and the main couple is really solid, But!! I am bias to this because on how the 2nd lead was doom to fail since the beginning, every action he made is an utterly failure, and yes I keep rooting for him even though he's not the best and I know he will fail but because of the hope I have is hard to erase at the end of it I just wish the writers did not write him like that or just didn't put the love triangle because it just made me mad HAHA anyway if you are planning to watch this don't be like me focus on the main lead because you will enjoy this fun drama a lot lol..

  • Hide and Seek

    19. Hide and Seek

    Korean Drama - 2018, 48 episodes

    8.0

    Yes it is another Lee Yoo Ri drama, I just fell in love with her work, anyway this drama is about the point of view of the "evil sister" of the lost true child of the family and that makes it really interesting, I really enjoy this drama a lot but I just love and hate the MC character it's understandable but still, anyway the couple is really strong and just absolutely amazing from beginning to end. 

    Side note: Through the episodes JaeSang seems like he's becoming hotter like really handsome, but maybe it just my weakness to bad boys HAHA

  • Apgujeong Midnight Sun

    20. Apgujeong Midnight Sun

    Korean Drama - 2014, 149 episodes

    7.5

    Not the usual makjang because it tackles different kind of story but still consider makjang with its crazy story-line. MC here is not likable but if you are like me who watched lots of makjang you will understand where she's coming from, and also after awhile you will warm up to her. The story, I really liked just some parts are played weird maybe rushed? I don't know how to explain but either way this is a good show and if you like romance then go ahead and watch this..

    Side note:  Don't like her "BFF", I know it happened in real life but I don't like how they handled her character at the end..

  • Hooray for Love

    21. Hooray for Love

    Korean Drama - 2011, 57 episodes

    8.0

    Really enjoyed watching this drama, very dramatic, very makjang but also very romantic, the story is straight forward just over the top and the only thing I hated about this are the parents, they're like the only one that is not nice xD

  • Ugly Alert

    22. Ugly Alert

    Korean Drama - 2013, 133 episodes

    9.0

    This drama is amazing, this is not makjang but highly recommended. It's very light but will attacked your heart here and there, and the family and love story-line is just uwu and TT..

  • What Happens to My Family?

    23. What Happens to My Family?

    Korean Drama - 2014, 53 episodes

    9.0

    Great family drama that played my emotion, I laughed and cried a bucket to this drama. Highly recommended just watch it you will not regret it..

  • My Father Is Strange

    24. My Father Is Strange

    Korean Drama - 2017, 52 episodes

    8.5

    Okay, a lot of people really enjoyed this drama and I do too it just that I'm not "wow" by it, I don't know what happened maybe because I was expecting it to be really great so I set my bar really high or maybe because I watched this after watching "What Happened to My Family" and I really enjoyed that drama BUT nevertheless this drama is really good and I have fun watching this family, really really great..

  • Once Again

    25. Once Again

    Korean Drama - 2020, 100 episodes

    8.0

    Here's my thing with Once Again, I'm not planning to watch this drama at all but with all the comments and reviews being so positive I did end up watching it and it is fun and enjoyable drama it just that for me something is missing and it's seems just like a normal family drama. Still, all the siblings story-line are enjoyable and I enjoyed the last few episode the most..

  • Ojakgyo Brothers

    26. Ojakgyo Brothers

    Korean Drama - 2011, 58 episodes

    8.0

    It's not perfect and it also takes me a while to warm up from this drama so if you are planning on watching this just make sure to pass through 1st part because it's kind of a struggle, but overall I really did enjoy this story..

  • Love Is Drop by Drop

    27. Love Is Drop by Drop

    Korean Drama - 2016, 120 episodes

    7.5

    If I'm being honest I watched this drama because the synopsis is the same as "Falling for Innocence" which I really loved so I'm kind of excited but  after watching this even though the main couple is really romantic and I enjoyed them, I can't be happy for them because I keep thinking of the second lead, I just fell in-love with him that watching him feels torturous, also because when he got a chance the storyline become a mess, he deserve better writing. But still even with all that this drama is fine, only watched it if you have time and really into family/makjang drama or liked the story idea..

  • Lie After Lie

    28. Lie After Lie

    Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes

    8.5

    I just loved Lee Yoo Ri's work and this is no exception, everything about this drama is great and I think it helps that this is only 16 episodes because they didn't drag it out and focus on the story..

    P.S. this have the best second male lead I've seen like his love for her is knowing where he stand TT you're the best Kim Yeon Joon now be mine HAHA

  • Creating Destiny

    29. Creating Destiny

    Korean Drama - 2009, 31 episodes

    7.5

    Another drama that I would only recommended to people who enjoyed family drama, this drama has its flaws but is really good and because it only has 31 episode it's kind of short so go ahead and watch this, it is fun..

  • Mom Has an Affair

    30. Mom Has an Affair

    Korean Drama - 2020, 122 episodes

    7.0

    It's not a bad drama at all it just that for a daily drama I felt flat watching it, kind of disappointed..

  • Never Twice

    31. Never Twice

    Korean Drama - 2019, 72 episodes

    7.5

    It’s not a bad family drama, I actually enjoyed the setup, it just that other than the main couple everything is weak but still enjoyed the other storyline and also got a few laughs, but I just wish the connection is more or shown more because even though they do live together and care for each other its not that shown or maybe I just didn't feel it and that I think is a shame..

    Side note: I don't like Na Haeri . Thank you HAHA

  • Be My Dream Family

    32. Be My Dream Family

    Korean Drama - 2021, 120 episodes

    8.5

    Absolutely a solid family drama, like I have this weird feeling that this drama is not for me while watching it but because the story is really good I end up finishing it. The characters and story have so much development that I enjoyed it and so happy to see it, really recommended..

  • My Life's Golden Age

    33. My Life's Golden Age

    Korean Drama - 2008, 56 episodes

    8.0

    First things first, this drama have unlikable characters like A LOT, everyone is there for themselves, I think only the grandparents are the really good one lol anyway even with all that this drama is really addictive like the moment you started it you will have to watch it through the end, that's how good the story is even with its flaws.  Also the main couple story is really what I loved like its very dramatic just right for my taste, but the 2nd sister story and personality is both a mess and confusing but still entertaining I guess, and last the youngest brother, he is the most normal lol

  • Homemade Love Story

    34. Homemade Love Story

    Korean Drama - 2020, 100 episodes

    7.5

    This drama is really good and I enjoyed watching this family a lot, like the development of each their story is really good and unique to their own and this family is really solid, it just that there's a confusing storyline for me which I totally didn't get like I know about it but I'm asking myself why.? and really.? but it's only a small part so it didn't bother me much so thank you lol..

    P.S. NaRo, I liked you a lot but you become so frustrating at the 2nd half so disappointing at you and SeoAh, didn't care for her at all!.

  • Brilliant Heritage

    35. Brilliant Heritage

    Korean Drama - 2020, 122 episodes

    7.0

    This drama takes a while for me to warm up with it and I only did enjoyed parts of it, also the beginning of this drama is kind of a struggle and the 90+ episodes was a torture, it takes all my will power just to finished this and now I hated this lol too many characters and I don't like majority of them and also most of them are frustrating, nice idea but badly executed..

  • No Matter What

    36. No Matter What

    Korean Drama - 2020, 120 episodes

    7.0

    Honestly I feel like this is typical family drama just more messy on family relationship like really entangled lol I didn't enjoyed it but I was entertain and I liked the story but not really the characters..

  • Bravo My Life

    37. Bravo My Life

    Korean Drama - 2017, 56 episodes

    8.5

    I loved this so much, the characters consistency and development is everything, they also have good platonic guy and girl friendship and that's so good to see but the only problem I have for this drama is that it's rushed, but not in a sloppy way, I just think maybe because there's only few episodes they need to cut a lot of contents so if only they have more episodes I feel like they can explore the other characters more, but still I enjoyed it so much..

  • Pink Lipstick

    38. Pink Lipstick

    Korean Drama - 2010, 149 episodes

    7.0

    This drama is just not for me, sure it has nice storyline but they dragged it so much. Anyway the drama introduced you to a scene from the future and because of that the 1st part is frustrating because you know what will happened and you also know it will be a long ass torture of waiting, then we have the middle part which is not bad but overall forgettable, and the last part which is in my opinion is the most entertaining of all. Overall I only recommended this to people who enjoy makjang and have lots of time in their hands..

    P.S. in the 1st part you can skip a lot of scenes because a lot of it is torture..

  • Liver or Die

    39. Liver or Die

    Korean Drama - 2019, 40 episodes

    7.5

    This is full on family drama, and it will give you a frustrating ride but the good kind typical family drama plot, the character here is consistent and you will understand where they're coming from or why they act like that and also I might not like them all individually (well PoongSang is different you just loved him) but I loved seeing them together it just feels right..

    Recommended if you are looking for family drama that is short..

  • Five Enough

    40. Five Enough

    Korean Drama - 2016, 54 episodes

    8.5

    This drama is really solid from start to finished, every character is interesting and unique.  First the main female lead is really strong and different and the way she challenge every problem she encounter is great to watch and her partner is also a great match who is also very unique. Second YeonTae love story is a fan-favorite which is understandable because everything about it is cute and entertaining. Third JinJoo she is the only one who got character development because she's the only who really need it lol she came from being spoiled to working hard when she find her love but honestly just the two of them is not really interesting, their romance with other characters is what makes them good. Last HoTae and SoonYoung is the most family drama plot and honestly not that bad it just that the three story above is so strong they faded in the background. Also the grandparents/parents are also really good and interesting characters.

    P.S. This drama doesn't have any love triangle just a really really light hearted one, and also they used it to make the other partner jealous but it backfire lmao funny scene..

  • Wang's Family

    41. Wang's Family

    Korean Drama - 2013, 50 episodes

    7.5

    First half of this drama is absolutely entertaining, minus the mother and the older daughter who is frustrating and only care for themselves, and that's why I feel for MinJung because he's married to the older daughter. We also have HoBak who you will also pity with all the problems and circumstances she have, but even with all that we have a great father who is absolutely amazing till the end, and GwangBak x SangNam couple who is the best in the 1st half and also the youngest brother, he's great on the 1st half too, too bad on the 2nd half they cut him a lot. Also the 2ndnd half of this drama is dragged and mediocre at best, and the character development happened towards the near end, but overall its a fun family drama because at the end they're all together..

  • Golden Pouch

    42. Golden Pouch

    Korean Drama - 2016, 122 episodes

    8.5

    This drama is really good, I enjoyed it from start to finished and I only fast-forward the bad mother and daughter scenes lol, and also this have little frustrating moments which is a win!, and the story kind of reminds me of "Ugly Alert" because they focus heavily on family. SeokHoon SeolHwa JunSang love triangle is really good, I actually liked it a lot because it's different. DooNa MinKyoo is so complicated but cute, and also Minkyoo is a coward but he will have a character development. SeNa is one note, she's the same from start to finished, don't like her much but that's her purpose, at least she cares about the family, also she has a small fling with Jisang who is the purest. Overall the pacing is really good and they told every story they want and give closure to the story before following up another story. The only missing for me is the ending which is kind of short because I want to see more of them, but other than that this is really a great watched..

  • Graceful Family

    43. Graceful Family

    Korean Drama - 2019, 16 episodes

    8.5

    Here me out, I'm putting this drama here because I really do believe that with all this drama twists and turns this is a makjang but the expensive kind lol, the female lead here is great and I really loved her, same with the romance I enjoyed it as well as all the characters, they're interesting..

  • Second Husband

    44. Second Husband

    Korean Drama - 2021, 150 episodes

    7.5

    I really liked the couple and I really did enjoyed this drama, this feels like the classics daily drama, but my only problem is that this got extended by 30 episodes and it kind of shows, and because the "villain" is the same throughout the drama it kind of become repetitive. I just wish that when they got extended they added new "villain" so the story is kind of different and feels new and refreshing, Anway they got what they deserve, well I hope more but I'm happy that everyone is happy at the end..

  • It's Beautiful Now

    45. It's Beautiful Now

    Korean Drama - 2022, 50 episodes

    8.5

    First of all the cast is amazing, their chemistry is really strong and feels natural like they're real family, and the story is really solid and the pacing is also great. The three main story are all different from each other but handled well, each stories was given enough time to developed so all of them are good, also all characters here are written well even the extras/minor roles, and the most important is that they don't have the "villain" everyone here feels real and I think that's their strength. The only criticism I have is that SooJae is the only one who have character development, sure not everyone needs it but still feel iffy about it, either way still recommended.. 

    P.S. I'm a fan of KangMin and I just fell in love with him again with his character xD

  • Vengeance of the Bride

    46. Vengeance of the Bride

    Korean Drama - 2022, 102 episodes

    7.5

    The thing about this drama is that it just another daily drama, it may sound bad but actually this drama was executed well from beginning to end. And the casts also did great in their role, so if you're a fan of daily's then you can give this drama a try.

    P.S. in this drama I liked the younger TaePoong but not in his adult and it's the opposite for SanDeul in which I liked him as an adult rather than his younger self.

  • Three Bold Siblings

    47. Three Bold Siblings

    Korean Drama - 2022, 51 episodes

    7.0

    I kind of like the first half and where it might be heading but the second half of the story didn't go there and it's not for me, like I'm crazy for the over the top storyline but not in here. Overall it's fine. And also the title is not helpful, they should have change it because I expected confident MCs..

  • Woman in a Veil

    48. Woman in a Veil

    Korean Drama - 2023, 103 episodes

    6.5

    I liked the concept but boy I didn't liked the leads, I didn't like them here i don't know why, also the two leads just have no chemistry with each other and the siblings have more chemistry TT also didn't like this because they focus on AeRa so much, like why..

  • Perfect Marriage Revenge

    49. Perfect Marriage Revenge

    Korean Drama - 2023, 12 episodes

    8.5

    Some might be confused why I put this here, but for me the moment I read the title I thought it would be daily drama, and in a sense it kinda is, with the writing it’s so makjang coded, l loved it HAHA I feel like it’s typical makjang drama but done amazingly with fantasy element, which I’m kinda hoping for more bcus they didn’t really fully utilised it same with other characters maybe bcus they only have 12 eps, but overall I had a fun watching this and totally recommended!!

  • The Real Has Come!

    50. The Real Has Come!

    Korean Drama - 2023, 50 episodes

    7.5

    Finally finished watching this drama it took a while because I put this on-hold, anyway this drama is surprisingly fun, yes it is kinda typical daily drama but strangely enough I really did enjoyed the lead, not the acting though those are kinda rough honestly HAHA moving on the villains here is surprisingly not stealing the spotlight which I'm really thankful, THANK YOU! 

    Overall if you enjoyed daily drama, you would have fun watching this with your free time.

  • Live Your Own Life

    51. Live Your Own Life

    Korean Drama - 2023, 51 episodes

    7.5

    What a ride, definitely I did enjoyed this drama, and what I loved about it is the cast, I just think they all suited for their roles especially the leads even though the chemistry is weak I feel like they still pull it off. And also I liked that the story just keeps of moving and doesn’t drag, and towards the last few episodes I do think it’s the climax, it just that I feel like they rushing it that they cut a lot of things and that’s a letdown for me, but overall good drama.

  • Unpredictable Family

    52. Unpredictable Family

    Korean Drama - 2023, 131 episodes

    8.0

    What a surprise, this drama is really fun and chaotic in a good way, and I did enjoy all the love story because all of them is distinct to each other and also I like that there’s really no villain level rival here so it feels kinda light that makes the story flows well. One note is that the main fl didn’t really get to be an actress not until the end so that’s disappointing to me. Anyway recommended to people who wants light, easy family drama to watch..

  • The Third Marriage

    53. The Third Marriage

    Korean Drama - 2023, 132 episodes

    7.5

    Typical family drama lol I don't know what else to say other than that xD it's a fine drama that had its moment that I enjoyed. With FL I'm on the fence of her bcus like she's not that unlikable which I guess is better xD and the ML is definitely the better character I loved this guy (the actor too HAHA). The grandmother and her secretary is also a good character which helps this drama.

    Overall if you have time and enjoyed over the top family drama then go for it just remember the pick up of this drama is kind of long bcus the first scene of the drama is kind of a spoiler.
