Any similar recommendations (thriller/crime/scifi) with romantic subplot? I don't really like it when romance…
Thank you that’s great. I recently watched Black Knight and The witch part 1 & 2. I loved these, no romance but very satisfying ending. If you have not watched them give them a try.

King the Land 2023 Hermès! Served exactly as intended: a (rarely pure) rom-com delight. I just don't understand why people are hating on this drama for being smooth and not having any kind on twists..... This is a smooth sailing drama.... and I perfectly love it.... if anyone who want twists so badly then I guess this drama is not for you.... try watching some thriller. A perfect blend of Romance and Comedy..... I just love the chemistry of both the leads and everything is going soo perfectly.... I don't want any kind of heart breaks.... breakups etc etc like any other drama. If you don't want cliches and overused scenes (one even so closely recycled from another series I thought I was hallucinating) then give this drama a pass. That being said, I really enjoyed this! All in all, I would recommend if you're looking for something light, fun, and sweet to watch! An uncomplicated gem A swoony love story that will have you smiling like an idiot
Thank you for recommending it.. I skipped it earlier as some says it has sad ending . I will definitely give this…
I also wish that in the end, we could know what happened to Min Ju and In Gyu. Though there is a hint of a future when min Ju acknowledges him that he was always with her and so will she in the future. With Jun Hee and Se Heon they are destined to meet and fall in love, no matter what the timeline is, so in the end, they meet and from there, it’s up to us to imagine their future.
Perfect Marriage Revenge (2023) FROM THE VERY FIRST EPISODE THIS DRAMA HOOKED ME AND I’VE NEVER LOOKED BACK. IT IS SOOOO ADDICTING! A contractual time travel romance with mystery, revenge and lots and lots of drama. The romance between the leads was undeniably sexy , with them adding a cute and swoon-worthy dynamic to the storyline. No major misunderstandings, no break up just a little giving space to each other (only half an episode) Smokin' Hot Series! Must Watch Revenge with Romance. The ML and FL chemistry and on-screen connection was endearing. The actors did quite well. They played their roles in the way expected. As for the OSTs, they were really good. I love the pacing of this series not too drawn out. All in all this is a perfectly fine drama. Well thought out plot that is mostly well executed with characters you can root for and villians you can hate. Beautifully shot and styled with stunning cast.
Destined with You (2023) - And that was a VERY satisfying and full-packed finale. The acting and everything is just excellent! The chemistry between actors feels so real. I wish I could just watch all the episodes on the same day hahaha please skip the negative reviews from the haters and go watch this show till the end and plz don't skip an episode. From the beginning to the end, this show is just everything! Happy ending and no major misunderstandings.
Again My Life (2022) - All about second chances. (not a romance drama but there is a slight romance which is not seen until the end). LEGAL THRILLER!! I love Lee Joon Gi dramas, be it romance or action or thriller they are good. I must inform you that the show is not an "one man army" plot-device, rather, a "together we can" spirit, that makes it unique. Excellent story with the ML acted superbly as an honest prosecutor out to get justice, who gets a second chance in life to bring to justice . All his friends were great in helping him in the build up of this tense drama, especially Director Han who played her cards closed to her chest. Very enjoyable . Must watch The only dissappointment i had was the ending bit about the assemblyman. I expected to see the assemblyman convicted but he apparently commits suicide (its not confirmed whether the body found is the assemblyman or not??)
Thank you for recommending it.. I skipped it earlier as some says it has sad ending . I will definitely give this…
Its not Sad :( but nor is it an ending with marriage or engagement as many would prefer. It is meeting again and the instant connection they have as if they are experiencing deja vu. You will have to watch it to understand. For me it is a happy end to see them reconnecting again after all that they have experienced in their past life (which they dont have any recollection but only a sense of knowing).
A Time Called You (2023) - Genres: Mystery, Thriller, Romance, Fantasy This was the kind of drama that stays with you long after you finish watching it. I loved the plot, cinematography, OST and I think all the cast did an amazing job. Both Ahn Hyo-seop and Jeon Yeo-been have amazing chemistry with each other, and the cinematography is insane. The ending can be viewed as sad or happy. For me it was the most sensible, perfect end to a drama. It was like the start of something beautiful, and they've left the rest to the audience's imagination. Well executed, well acted, and overall a good drama. Watch it without comparing it to the original & you'll love it. The emotions you will experience while watching this drama cannot be replicated by reading a plot synopsis or watching a summary video on YouTube. I recommend that you watch it without looking at the spoilers or hating / comparing it to versions you've seen before. Just pretend it's a whole new drama.
Doctor Prisoner - No romance, action thriller. A revenge drama through and through, you wont miss the romance in this series, Doctor Prisoner delivers in many aspects.It was fast paced, and the plot was basically characters outsmarting one another for their selfish wants. ull of mind games and suspense, never knowing what to expect and who is on which side, as characters constantly kept changing sides, until the very last moment. he director, writer, and entire cast are outstanding. My only quibble is some scenes are repetitious which slows down the tempo of the plot
Some noteworthy Kdramas (Historical) with no silly misunderstandings, funny but serious and a great watch. 1. The moon embracing the sun 2. Forbidden marriage 3. 100 Days My Prince (2018) 4. Bossam: Steal the Fate
The Glory part 1 & 2 (2022-2023) cleverly intertwines the burning subject of bullying with the long-running topic ´revenge campaign´. The result is gripping, intense, a success all round. oved each and every second of the show. And it kept me tied to my seat. I binge watched the drama. Loved the drama. The actors did a great job in portraying their characters. The revenge plot was awesome. Just Loved it. Satisfying revenge story. Seeing the downfall of the bullies made the ending so much worth it. Forgiveness? No. What they did to the main character was unacceptable. They scarred her deeply, and for life. Her mother was honestly just as bad. The most heartbreaking part was that this show was based off true stories. Little romance but good ending. male lead very understanding and supported the FL all along.
The Legend of Zhuohua (2023). Good drama, great understanding between the main leads. it could have been wrapped up in 20 episodes but it was still great. Female -centric drama but I wish we could've seen more of Zhuohua career rising through her own merit. Small breakup where the male lead goes away to die alone but FL does not give up and follows him and they reconcile. So no break up in my opinion. A good watch.
See You in My 19th Life - Also on the list. Very unique and interesting! My take on this You can choose peace over revenge and live a life without grudges. Acting is on point. I am not a big fan of reincarnation in shows as I find it more miss than hit, but with this show it was interesting.
Fake it till you make it - Already on the list but its a masterpiece. An excellent series, realistic, romantic, modern , mature, Sexy, Communicative Romance with sizzling Chemistry
Gen Z (2023) extraordinary series...superb action and acting skills...cheerful, educational, full of exquisite scenery and useful information...very fine series...decent romance. If you are fan of Lusi, then I’m positive you will like this drama even if there is little romance. First of all, the chemistry with ML, it became quite good towards the middle. This new comer ML, he was amazing to play the son and love interest of Lusi as spoiled yet struggling to find his position in his family. It’s so surprising to know this drama is his 1st drama!! medical drama, family drama, funny/serious/crying moments/romances, and of course, Lusi fan, don’t miss it! Happy ending of course. no break up. Its not much on TCM, nor romance but delves more into building and nurturing relationship, a healthy one with family and the society. I started to watch this expecting for a romance but I realized through, life and drama is more than romance, people.
Reset (2022) Intriguing plot, fantastic acting and high quality production. THIS IS NOT YOUR TYPICAL C-DRAMA. There are no unnecessary love triangles, misunderstandings and golden fingers. A time loop drama with lots of suspense and interesting turns of events. I loved both main leads a lot, and I also really loved their chemistry! It was interesting to see their differences and how they complemented each other. Both the FL and ML are smart and capable. I didn’t feel that one outshined the other in terms of intelligence. In fact, I enjoyed that the FL had a bit of an upper hand in the beginning and is really the main character of this drama. Both actors are so good in their roles. Perfectly cast and wonderful to watch.Slight romance but real relationship between the main leads. Happy ending for the leads. There was even a little hint at marriage.
