While K-dramas, the blanket term for South Korean scripted television programming of any genre, are increasingly beloved around the world, certain shows aren't without controversy. Korean audiences are understandably sensitive about how aspects of their culture and history are represented in television, and depictions received as below standards have endured substantial backlash. More than just public complaints and plunging viewership, some shows that have endured high levels of controversy have lost sponsors or been swiftly canceled entirely. On several occasions, the controversy has erupted from international audiences who are similarly unhappy about how their cultures have been depicted in K-dramas, leading to formal apologies.

Simply put, not all K-dramas are as universally celebrated as some of the industry's more critically lauded and enormously popular shows. This isn't to say that the shows included on this list should be shunned to unexplored corners of Netflix's growing K-drama library. Instead, it's important to see how audiences,...

The K-drama scene has really been making improvements recently, and I suppose as we come closer to the last quarter, the quality will only improve. If you’re looking for an old-school K-drama that is lighthearted yet emotional and will play with your heartstrings, like a little cat playing with a ball of wool, then this is the show for you. Now, I know we’re only an episode in, but immediately, I can tell that this show is going to be deeply poignant as a comedy. This is true for most K-dramas that we love; this is why they’re so loved, but what’s better is that the show also boasts a stellar cast with Jung Eun-Ji and Lee Jung-Eun as the titular characters and the return of Choi Jin-Hyuk, a handsome hunk who was last seen in Numbers, a show I believe not many have heard of.
