“Doona!” is a romantic K-drama starring Bae Suzy. It follows Doona, an impulsive K-pop idol who drops out of her idol group after a breakdown and starts lodging in a small college sharehouse. One of the tenants there is Lee Won-Jun (played by Yang Se-jong). A kind, simple, and wholesome college student who does not know who Doona is. Although their first interaction is less than ideal, they cannot deny the mutual feelings developing between them.

“Doona!” is a drama that explores themes of self-love and self-discovery. Its slice of life and occasional comedy elements make up for a wonderful watching experience.
Strong Girl Nam-Soon

For avid Korean drama watchers, “Strong Girl Nam-Soon” may sound very familiar. It’s a spinoff to the massively popular romantic K-drama “Strong Girl Bong-Soon,” released in 2017.
The new installment takes a slightly different route and focuses more on action rather than romance. The famous Squid Game actress, Lee Yoo-mi, plays the titular role of Gang Nam-soon.
Gang Nam-soon is a girl with superhuman strength who went missing in Mongolia as a kid. As an adult, Nam-soon returns to Korea to look for her family. To her surprise, both her mother, a rich businesswoman, and her grandmother possess the same superhuman strength as her. They somehow end up getting tangled in a drug case and now have to work with the police to solve it.
The show maintains its comedy from “Strong Girl Bong-soon” and blends elements of action, family, and crime in a well-rounded watching experience.
Daily Dose of Sunshine

Centered around Jung Da-Eun, portrayed by Park Bo-Young, (known for her role in “Strong Girl Bong-soon,”) a young nurse working in the psychiatry department of a hospital.

K-dramas are known to have very unconventional storylines to them. In terms of that, “Castaway Diva” might just take the cake.
While officially categorized as a romantic comedy, its premise is quite unusual. Seo Mok-ha, portrayed by Park Eun-bin from “Extraordinary Attorney Woo,” is a young woman aspiring to become an opera singer. However, Mok-ha unexpectedly ends up stranded on a remote island for 15 years before she is rescued. The show follows her journey as she tries to readjust to society and get back on track.
The unusual premise of the show is what makes it binge-worthy. And with Park Eun-bin in the lead role, we can definitely expect an exceptional performance.
So, if you want to jump headfirst into a whirlwind of emotions and fun stories as the winter kicks in, these are the K-Dramas you need to watch. And don’t worry if you do not speak Korean — they’re available on Netflix in English dub and with subtitles as well. So get cozy, grab some snacks, and start knocking these out one by one.
