Romance remains one of the most enjoyed genres, whether it's anime, manga, or even manhwa. While anime is the more dominant medium, manhwa stories have gained immense popularity, especially for their highly successful live-action adaptations. When it comes to cozy love stories, manhwa have a bit more edge than anime, manga, and donghua for being highly appealing and swoonworthy.
The elite status of romance manhwa tropes is unparalleled, and it’s nearly impossible for the audience not to feel like there’s nothing more beautiful than love. From guilty pleasure tales to yearning for someone’s presence across time, some romance manhwa hit different than others.

Beauty standards are a universal pressure, even in K-dramas like True Beauty and My ID Is Gangnam Beauty. Lovely Runner has many similarities to True Beauty, from the same series writer to a few crossovers in the main cast. K-dramas like 18 Again and Lovely Runner see their main characters traveling to the past and getting the opportunity to change the future's course of events.
Lim Ju-kyung is the likable protagonist in True Beauty and, just as she does, other leading K-drama characters deal with the relentless beauty expectations in society. K-dramas are known for their swooping portrayals of romance and gripping dramatic storylines, but an underrated theme in shows is those that deal with beauty standards in South Korea. Every country has its take on what true beauty is, but despite the specificity of South Korean culture in K-dramas, the pressure to fit within said beauty standards is universally understood.

A major characteristic of k-dramas is their focus on romantic relationships, and for the most part, these connections are adorable, kind, and enough to warm the heart of any cynical audience member, however, there are certain k-drama couples that miss the mark completely. K-drama stands for Korean drama, or television series that come from South Korea. While they typically range in genre from historical and action to comedy, the majority of the shows include at least one sweet romance.
The following k-drama couples are the worst for a variety of reasons. One significant factor that comes into play is chemistry. A pair of actors can be shoved into the perfect, romantic circumstances, but if they don't have a palpable romantic connection, then their on-screen romance can quickly become a flop. Furthermore, there are many k-drama couples who are simply too problematic and toxic to be together. Although the series markets them as a likable couple,...

Disney+ is boosting its growing K-drama slate with Han River Police, an action comedy series starring Kwon Sang-woo (Stairway to Heaven, Curtain Call) and Kim Hee-won (Netflix’s Unlocked).
Kwon will star as Han Dujin, the hot-tempered sergeant of the Han River Police Force who holds back for nobody, while Kim plays Lee Chunseok, a laid-back lieutenant with the exact opposite personality. Stuck together on patrol of Seoul’s Han River, the two officers are faced with emergency situations ranging from terrorism to everyday accidents and other incidents requiring emergency assistance — a premise that suggests all of the action, humor and offbeat crime-solving of the classic buddy cop genre.
Disney hasn’t released additional casting info for the show, but local news outlet Korea JoongAng Daily reports that Shin Hyeon-seung (So Not Worth It), Lee Sang-yi (Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha) and Bae Da-bin (Gangnam Beauty) will co-star as other cops on the Han River Police force.
