Hero/Action
Hero or Action dramas/movies I'd recommend
-
1. Healer
Korean Drama - 2014, 20 episodes
Like Superman, just without the superpower alien bit. The cast, story, action, OST all came together for a kick ass drama.
-
2. Crash Landing on You
Korean Drama - 2019, 16 episodes
Fun and addicting with off the charts chemistry plus Hyun Bin in uniform
-
3. D.P.
Korean Drama - 2021, 6 episodes
gritty and raw with bits of humor. lots of fight scenes
-
4. Strong Woman Do Bong Soon
Korean Drama - 2017, 16 episodes
Cute and funny! Park Bo Young is charming as always and Hyun Sik matched her spunky energy so well.
-
5. My Name
Korean Drama - 2021, 8 episodes
Worth watching for just Han So Hee's fight scenes
-
6. Descendants of the Sun
Korean Drama - 2016, 16 episodes
Funny enough, I was in the minority in thinking that the Song-Song couple had little chemistry in this drama, but I still thought this was a fun drama. When I later found out that they were together in real life, it made sense. 2 insanely good looking people having no sexual tension onscreen usually means they are dating or have dated imo.
-
7. Vagabond
Korean Drama - 2019, 16 episodes
Action was crazy good in the beginning, but the story gradually declined.
-
8. Imawa no Kuni no Alice
Japanese Drama - 2020, 8 episodes
Intense, bloody, and brutal. Awesome action and thrills
-
9. Imawa no Kuni no Alice Season 2
Japanese Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
Not quite as good as S1, but still fun to watch. Loved the action scenes in E7
-
10. Weak Hero Class 1
Korean Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
The young cast really delivered on the acting and action fight scenes. Intense, dark, and fast paced, I felt my blood boiling along with the characters.
-
11. Moving
Korean Drama - 2023, 20 episodes
Finally! A Korean superheroes drama with high quality production value and cast!
-
12. One Piece
Japanese Drama - 2023, 8 episodes
The pure message of being yourself and going after your dream is uplifting. The cast and production value are both great. A little campy but still a fun watch!
-
13. Confidential Assignment
Korean Movie - 2017
Fun Action comedy that'll entertain if you don't look at the logistics too carefully
-
14. Confidential Assignment 2: International
Korean Movie - 2022
Almost as equally entertaining as the first movie, Hyun Bin and Hae Jin still have great buddy action chemistry
-
15. A Shop for Killers
Korean Drama - 2024, 8 episodes
Fresh story and cast, fun fight scenes, and a dark anti hero theme makes an entertaining ride, though the weird fade transitions in editing and repetitive scenes lower the quality some
-
16. Officer Black Belt
Korean Movie - 2024
Basically this movie is an excuse to see Kim Woo Bin kick some ass in some majorly intense action scenes. The story is pretty surface level, but the action scenes make it a worthy watch.
