14 K-Dramas To Watch If You Love These TV Shows

All of these K-dramas are adaptations of the English-language versions. Although the characters and storylines may be similar, they all have a unique appeal. Plus, you’ll always find sprinkles of those cheesy and/or intense K-drama charms.

Here are 14 K-dramas you’ll love if you’re a fan of the American or British versions:

1. The World of the Married









OCN / Via youtube.com

Based on: Life on Mars

Released in 2018, this K-drama is another one for all my mystery and thriller fans. Han Tae Joo is the leader of a crime investigation team — and a good one at that. However, during an investigation of a serial murder case, he time travels back to the year 1988, with no recollection of why or how. Contrasting to his usual job, he is hired as a detective at a police station in a small and rural city. In order to get back to his normal life, he takes on another serial murder case.

Netflix Philippines / Via youtube.com Based on: Younger

Watch it on: Netflix

Romance is a Bonus Book is a lighthearted K-drama about the fate of past relationships and how relationships change from youth to adulthood. Cha Eun Ho is the chief editor at a book publishing company, whereas Kang Dan I is a single mother and former successful copywriter. They were intertwined in the past with Eun Ho saving Dan I from a childhood accident, but their relationship started to become tense when Eun Ho didn’t approve of Dan I’s partner. Now, fate has them meeting again as they rekindle their relationship. 

13. Little Women

Based on: Little Women

Watch it on: Netflix

Technically, the Little Women American film isn’t a TV show, but it’s so popular I thought it was important to include it on this list. Korea is coming out with its own version of Little Women starring Kim Go Eun, Nam Ji Hyun, and Park Ji Hu, with the release date predicted to be in August of 2022. The K-drama will depict the three sisters’ lives as they find themselves in a case involving the richest family in South Korea. Despite mostly growing up in poverty, the sisters must use their close bond to work together against this family.
