The Top 10 K-Dramas Every Beginner Needs to Watch
Less than a decade ago, almost no one in the Western world had even heard of K-dramas, let alone watched them. But now, with K-pop and Korean culture in general on the rise, everyone wants to take a look at Korean television shows.
However, it's quite difficult to understand what goes on in the K-drama industry, as the names of directors, studios, and channels are largely unknown to anyone who doesn't live in Korea.
So we decided to help K-drama beginners by compiling a list of 10 shows you must watch to understand what all the hype is about!

All of the shows on this list could easily be inducted into the K-Drama Hall of Fame if it existed, as their outstanding production quality, original scripts, and great lead actors can easily rival even the best shows produced by Netflix or HBO.
The fact that they are all Korean only adds to their exceptional quality, as this talented steel nation feels a bit exotic to Western viewers.
We hope this list will serve as a guide for those willing to invest their time in K-drama! But don't worry, there are thousands of other great Korean shows out there, not just the 10 mentioned in our list.
