Korean Dramas

A few years ago, I watched a Korean drama on Hulu and got hooked. Before long, I subscribed to Drama Fever and began watching them regularly. These include romantic comedies, historical dramas, serious melodramas, supernatural stories, and spy thrillers. I appreciate how they tell a complete story, as movies do, over a longer period of time, so that I get to know the characters and understand what is happening before it all ends.

Hong Gil-Dong, The Hero

Hong Gil Dong is about a Robin Hood type hero. It is set in Joseon. The credits identify the King as Gwanghae, who reigned from 1608-1623, but events in the series take place 20 years into his 15-year reign, and events don't match up with history.

Blooded Palace:The War of Flowers

Cruel Palace (2013) is about an ambitious concubine who manipulates King Injo and kills various people to get her way. It mainly takes place during the latter portion of King Injo's reign after the death of Queen Inyeol.

The King's Face

The King's Face is about the rise of Prince Gwanghae to the throne. Unlike Hong Gil Dong, a Robin Hood drama which casts King Gwanghae in the role of Prince John, this drama portrays Gwanghae as an honorable man who saves Joseon from a Japanese invasion and rightfully earns the crown, befriending, along the way, the author of the original Hong Gil Dong stories.

Who Are You? (2008-South Korea)

Who Are You? (2008) is about a dead father who is given 49 additional days to spend with his daughter while possessing the body of a young business man. It is based on a similar idea as 49 Days but goes for comedy instead of pathos.

Hwarang

Hwarang (2017) takes place during the reign of King Jinheung of Silla. I watched after Six Flying Dragons, because that show had an organization called Moomyung that dated back to Silla, and this had a character called Moo Myung, but if there was any connection, it was not explored in this drama.

More Than a Maid

Maids is about a noblewoman who becomes a maid after her father is framed and executed for treason. It takes place in Joseon during the reign of King Taejong and the life of Joseon's founder King Taejo.

Mischievous Kiss - DramaWiki

Mischievous Kiss, a.k.a. Playful Kiss, is the Korean version of a Japanese manga that has been made into Japanese, Chinese, and Korean series. It is about a girl who falls in love with a genius in her school, then slowly forms a relationship with him after her family moves in with his after an earthquake destroys her new house. It is a charming romantic comedy, and I have also seen the Taiwanese version, It Started With a Kiss.

The Roots of Throne

Six Flying Dragons is about six people involved with the founding of Joseon. These include the historical figures Sambong, a Confucian scholar who conceived of the new nation, Lee Sung Gye, who became its first king, and his son Lee Bong Won, who became the third king and was the father of Great King Sejong.

Hwajung

Hwajung (2015) is about the younger sister of King Gwanghae, covering the latter portion of Gwanghae's reign, all of Injo's, and the beginning of Hyojong's. It finds a nice balance for its portrayal of Gwanghae, who is neither the villain of Hong Gil Dong nor the hero of The King's Face. Because it covers a longer period in the same number of episodes, it does not cover the characters it shares with Cruel Palace in as much depth.
