The Heirs: Highschool der Superreichen

This one left an indelible mark on the genre. This captivating series effortlessly combines romance, drama, and a touch of melodrama to create an unforgettable viewing experience.

The stellar ensemble cast, including Lee Min-ho and Park Shin-hye, brings their characters to life with depth and charisma. The chemistry between the leads is palpable, drawing viewers into their emotional journey and making them invest in the unfolding relationships.

Set against a backdrop of opulence and privilege, it offers a window into the lives of the wealthy elite, complete with all the glamour and intrigue that entails. The lavish settings and fashion choices add to the allure, creating a visual feast for the audience.

While the drama incorporates some familiar tropes, it does so with a fresh and engaging approach. The narrative weaves together themes of love, friendship, and personal growth, making it a compelling watch for fans of both romance and character-driven stories.

It has earned its place in the pantheon of classic kdramas, leaving an enduring legacy due to its memorable characters, evocative storytelling, and unforgettable romantic moments. If you're in search of a series that has stood the test of time and continues to captivate audiences, this drama is a must-watch that will whisk you away into a world of romance and intrigue.

The story is pretty predictable and non realistic. This evolves with a family melodrama having two mother, of course, the one and only son from mistress along with school bullying later falling both of the guy falling with love with female lead. Pretty absurd! Then two guys trying their best to get the female lead, kind of competing against each other with unnecessary dragging.

I really hate why in every K-Drama a girl has be a poor girl living from hands to mouth and a boy has to be super rich with lots of family problems.

So if you are watching a KDrama and expect it to be mind bending, without cliche's and tropes, you shouldn't be watching this. If you do like your KDramas, you should be used to tropes and clichés and enjoy the sheer beauty of watching old fashioned, sweet melodrama with familiar characters. Heirs is no different. Beautifully shot, with fantastic actors, a detailed story and characters, it is a satisfying drama that made me really enjoy my time getting to know their story. And yes, would love to see Choi Young Du get his own story!

It has nothing special to watch actually. I only watched it because Lee min ho.

I rewatched the beginning episodes a few times. At the theatre when they were resting from chasers, Kim Tan turns his head toward Cha Eun Sang , then 'kills' with the line, " Do I like you? ", with a look that dares you not to like him. Can't get enough of that look. I think Lee Min Ho is at his best when he is a bit dangerous, unpredictable, as in City Hunter. In Heirs, the actors were more college age than high-school. Not sure why they the plot called for high-schoolers, but then, I'm not sure if in Korea, it is likely for a maid's daughter to be able work her way through college, But it didn't bother me with the story line. In all, this was an enjoyable movie to get to know Korean drama and Lee Min Ho. I am a new fan from New York.
