A Relative Term

 


Korean TV is the young person’s Brit Box. I am not knocking Brit Box. It is charming and cozy in ways that are thoroughly enjoyable, and it has enough variety to keep you happy for a long time. If what you want is charming and cozy. If your tastes are more diversified such as sci fi, historical drama, fantastical adventures and improbable sit coms Korean TV has a hit list on it with something for everyone. There is the heart-warming Extraordinary Attorney Woo with it’s heart melting autistic lead. The King’s Affection and Captivating the King offer a lot to think about without requiring thinking at all. The School Nurse Files is amazingly weird. You have to keep watching because if you stop you’ll never understand the show’s logic. Castaway Diva led by the amazing Park Eun-Bin is the classic unlikely happy ending. 

In any case, I’ve gone from noting, “It’s Korean” to actively looking for Korean shows. I find mine on Netflix. Let me know where you find yours.
