Romancevicariously's 'Bang-for-your-Buck' K-drama list

This list summarises the K-dramas I call "Bang-for your-buck": As in you get back your time-spent-watching-them worth, sometimes even more so. They have high production values, some are fun / some are fluff, all are a fun watch. The problem is I am not able to remember much about these dramas later on because their 'Feels' department was low, they were high on 'Feel-good'.  Like a nice Pizza, eat it and forget it. and you will not regret eating it.  Just that it's not gourmet cuisine. 

If you are not a newbie to the Asian drama land, chances are you have seen these K-dramas already. 

P.S: Secret Garden might find its way out of this list though soon and move to the gourmet list, I do remember getting a lot of feels and tears on that one. Maybe I need to rewatch it.

  • Descendants of the Sun

    1. Descendants of the Sun

    Korean Drama - 2016, 16 episodes

    Why are not more people gaga over Song Joong-Ki' s physique and fighting skills? They were awesome here. Both Romance and Bromance were top notch.

  • Goblin

    2. Goblin

    Korean Drama - 2016, 16 episodes

    Features more for Bromance than Romance in this list. The running thread of self-deprecating humour in this series was fun to watch.

  • Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo

    3. Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo

    Korean Drama - 2016, 16 episodes

    The leads were actually dating so that chemistry translates to the screen. They both are extremely good looking too. 

  • Strong Woman Do Bong Soon

    4. Strong Woman Do Bong Soon

    Korean Drama - 2017, 16 episodes

    Ji Soo is hawttt and the lad from Heirs also stepped up in this series to pull the main lead job. 

  • City Hunter

    5. City Hunter

    Korean Drama - 2011, 20 episodes

    Lee Min-Ho has never looked more dashing than he has in this series and considering how good-loooking he is, that's saying something. His chemistry with Park Min Young  is also on point. 

  • Healer

    6. Healer

    Korean Drama - 2014, 20 episodes

    Park Min Young has crazy chemistry with anyone she works with but I think this one takes the top rank.

  • Secret Garden

    7. Secret Garden

    Korean Drama - 2010, 20 episodes

    Hyun Bin with his sequined jackets was so funny!

  • Marriage, Not Dating

    8. Marriage, Not Dating

    Korean Drama - 2014, 16 episodes
