Favorite Sageuks
Most of the younger crowd don't typically watch historical dramas, probably because they're too long or it's not cheesy enough. However, I find that the sageuks below have very good plots and would recommend if you're looking for a true drama rather than quick, bubble pop entertainment.
My top historical Korean dramas, chosen for storyline, cinematography, and acting, with the overall message being the hugest influencer.
