What To Watch When You're In Your Teens

18 Again - Honestly, I think this drama is for all age people. This drama focuses on the lives of students and two kids who're aloof from their parents, they're distant because of some misunderstandings and miscommunications. I love how these kids try to show they're matured from the outside but they're as much kids should be at their age from the inside. It's a perfect drama to watch at this teen age especially if you're one of those who're feeling distant from your parents, who have a dream to follow but the communication gap between you and your parents isn't allowing to follow your dream. It's one of my favorite dramas and it's so wholesome!  - u/Fatooz

A Love So Beautiful - Another one of those high-school rom-coms where the ML is a bit cold and aloof and the FL is cheerful and bubbly and has a crush on the ML. Luckily this drama was much nicer than the original Chinese version. It was so adorable and lovely. The way things were tackled was also nice and I would definitely recommend this if you're in your teens and looking for a chill and wholesome drama.  -  u/Fatooz

Blue Birthday - A sci-fi high-school drama where a tragedy takes place and the FL gets a chance to travel back in time to save the ML from the tragedy. It's also a short drama which is why the time travel aspect was pretty messed up but it's a nice and easy watch and I liked the vibe of the drama. I think it's relatable in your teens. - u/Fatooz

Cinderella and the Four Knights - This one's a cute and nice rom-com which follows the cinderella trope but it's so hilarious. It's definitely tropey but at the same time it's so very enjoyable and the FL had great chemistry with everyone! It's just one of those dramas that you'd enjoy watching in your teens because once you grow up these kind of dramas are usually a guilty pleasure haha, so yes, watch them while you can! - u/Fatooz

EXO Next Door - This was my first ever drama as I was an EXO-L and DO is my bias, I watched this when I was 16 year old and I remember enjoying this so much! It's so cheesy and over-the-top but if you're an EXO-L or just a KPop Fan, I'm sure you'll like it too and you'll relate to it as it depicts those teenage fangirl feels!  - u/Fatooz

Imitation - It's your basic idol rom-com. FL is a struggling newbie who replaces a member in a band called Omega III as the old member has an unfortunate death, however on the day these three members from Omega III were going to perform their debut song, they are removed from the stage because of a controversy related to the death of the former member who died. A few years later the FL is doing gigs where she's a copycat of the SFL La Ri-Ma, a famous idol. ML is a part of a famous idol group called SHAX but inside there's something that's eating him up. It's the journey of these four leads and how they face many obstacles but in the end they overcome it all. It's a good motivating and also enjoyable drama that you'll like if you're in your teens.  - u/Fatooz

Moment at Eighteen - It's your coming of age drama where the lives of school kids are shown. Everyone's facing a different issue, they show how these kids are immature and take wrong decisions but eventually learn from them and grow. The relationships, friendships change with how these kids change. It's one of the most wholesome and lovely dramas I've watched. Highly recommended to all those in their teens, you'll definitely relate and learn from it!  -  u/Fatooz

Our Beloved Summer - This is a slow burn romance, it shows how a documentary has been shot where FL who is the top scorer in the school and ML who is at the last position in the school have to spend time together for one month. The drama takes a leap of 10 years and how this documentary is still very popular, the ML and FL who're now at different corners have to come together again to shoot the second part of this documentary. It's a breezy drama, especially the high school parts as they're so very relatable. How these two opposite people come together is also such a lovely and hilarious watch.  - u/Fatooz

Sassy Go Go - A high-school drama where there're two different clubs - Real King where the students belong to the lowest 5% of the school including the FL and Baek Ho where the top 5% belong including the ML. These two club are always fighting amongst each other because of the discrimination as Real King is regarded as a waste of time club while Baek Ho is given all the privileges as they all have rich dads and families. It's a drama about how amidst all the school corruption, these two clubs come together unwantedly but end up becoming one and fight the school corruption.  - u/Fatooz

School 2017 - FL dreams of becoming a webtoon artist but she doesn't have money to follow her dream, ML is a rich kid whose father is one of the trustees of the school but ML wants to fight against the school corruption because of his past trauma. It's a cute drama where you learn how to follow dreams and how high school is all about cherishing the memories and having fun.  - u/Fatooz

Adult Trainee - It's a hilarious look at three different stories of hormonal teens. It offers a relatable and sympathetic look into the changing bodies and burgeoning sexual desires of teens. I personally liked the story of conservative Yura and the sudden attraction she experiences with her longtime  male friend. Teens will find a lot of humor and comfort in watching these characters come of age and deal with awkward romantic and social situations.  - u/Sunshine_raes  

Love Revolution is a great high school romance and group of friends. There is the ML, who is the glue and heart for the whole group, who falls in love with a cold FL. It's very funny to see his outlandish displays of affection versus her almost emotionless state, yet it somehow works and you begin to see how they are paired for each other. Plus you have side stories about each of the friends and the things they deal with in high school.  - u/caninedesign

Pop Out Boy! This is incredibly fluffy drama about a comic book character who comes out of the story and tries to interact with the real world. His character was written to be in love with FL and it becomes his mission to make her kiss him. The acting wasn't bad and it's a cute short drama to binge watch. - u/caninedesign

Shadow Beauty is a bit heavier high school drama and deals with the influence of social media, bullies, physical appearance, and friendships. The FL did an amazing job with her character and all the emotions she went through. It was well written and executed beautifully, and difficult to predict how it would all turn out. Once you start watching, it's hard to stop because you need to know what happens next. - u/caninedesign

The Great Shaman Ga Doo Shim is a story about a high school girl who is also a shaman. She spends her days fighting evil spirits and has low grades because of it. She gets tangled with the top student, the ML lead who is wealthy and perfect. They work together to save students from dying. Both leads are great actors and have a nice chemistry with each other. I hoped for a second season just to see more of them together.  - u/caninedesign

True Beauty about a ugly FL who was bullied at her previous school. She learns make-up tricks and transforms into a beautiful girl and transfers schools. There is a lot of emphasis on physical appearance and how beautiful people are treated differently. But it also has some extremely funny scenes of teenagers being caught in teenage situations. There is a love triangle and second lead syndrome is strong in this one. Definitely worth a watch for all ages though. - u/caninedesign

Extraordinary You - A fantasy high-school drama where the main leads are captured in a comic book and the FL is an extra in that comic book but she wants to change her destiny. It's pretty cute and hilarious especially because the FL has actually played extras in so many previous dramas and in this drama she's finally the FL but playing an extra LOL. It's even more relatable when you're in your teens!  - u/Fatooz

Fight for My Way - Another drama that is extremely motivating and something perfect to watch at this age. It depicts four friends who have different dreams, they're all struggling in their own paths but at the end of the day they drink it all together and have fun. It motivates you with regards to so many things, be it following your dream no matter what, or be it realizing your dream too late.  - u/Fatooz

Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo - a college drama starring a female weightlifter and a male swimmer. this drama teaches a lot about toxic relationships, how to support someone in tough situations, and is overall a fun watch! - u/intelligentMoodie
