My Top 10 Rom- Com Korean Dramas

                            

             

                                                1. My Girl  

I enjoyed watching this 2006 romantic-comedy Korean drama.  I’ve watched it 10 times and I will never get tired of watching it over and over again.  

I love Lee Da Hae.  This girl is very funny.  She always reminds me of Kim Chiu who was perfectly chosen by ABS-CBN to portray her role as Joo Yoo Rin in its 2008 Filipino version of the same title.

I also love Lee Dong Wook.  His captivating good looks is perfect for the role as the stubborn Seol Gongchan who will do anything to fulfill his dying grandfather's wish.

Lee Da Hae and Lee Dong Wook’s chemistry is very charming and lovable .

My Girl has no boring moments.  You’ll die laughing watching this neither completely melodramatic drama, nor an out and out comedy drama.

                                             2.  Full House

This classic 2004 Korean rom-com brings together two people who hate each other but are forced to live under the same roof. 

It's also between a lowly writer, Han Ji Eun (Song Hye Gyo) and the biggest star in Korea, Lee Young Jae (Rain)! 

This drama served as Rain’s passport to super-stardom.

Just like My Girl, I will never get tired of watching this series over and over again.   

Song Hye Gyo and Rain has an awesome chemistry.  Both stars

delivered brilliant performances.  Song Hye is very funny here as well as Rain.

Those hilarious and sweet moments the two have will give you a real belly laugh.

                              3.  My Name Is KimSam Soon (2005)

The story about an older woman meeting a younger man and eventually falling in love with each other always generates interest from the female and gay audiences.  

So much more if the woman is not so attractive and poor while the man is not only extremely handsome but rich, just like in the case of Kim Sun Ah as the chubby 30-year-old pastry chef Kim Sam-soon and Hyun Bin as Hyun Jin-heon, the  typical cold and self-confident 27-year-old owner of Bon Appetit restaurant. 

This rom-com is bubbling over with funny ideas.  There’s a lot of rib-tickling and kilig moments with Kim Sam-soon and Hyun Jin-heon.

The onscreen chemistry between the two protagonists is great which will make you fall in love with their characters up to the very end.

 

                                     4.  Princess Hours (Goong)

I love this 2006 drama about young love in a world of political pressures and marital hardships.  It makes me feel I’m falling in love again for the first time.  

I like the female lead, Shin Chae Kyung (a member of the popular K-group Baby V.O.X).  She showed great promise as an actress even though this is her first time acting in a K-drama.
Joon Ji Hun, Chae Kyung’s leading man, is another newcomer to the K-drama scene that has left me with a good impression as far

    as his acting is concerned.

He portrayed his character Shin, the aloof and lonely Crown Prince, with flying colors.

He grows on you as the drama progresses and promise, you can help but fall in love with him.

This drama has a lot of funny scenes too and kilig moments that’s why it deserves to be my number four pick.

 

                                5.  Coffee Prince (2007)

Loving a man, Go Yoon Eun Hye (Yoon Eun Hye), no matter what it entails made it hard for Choi Han Kyul (Gong Yoo) to accept that he is a homosexual because the truth is -- he is straight.

But what can he do if its true love that he feels for Eun Hye which he had mistaken for a boy. 

On the other hand, Eun Hye being desperate in need of money to pay off  her family’s debts accepted Han Kyul’s offer to be his gay lover in order to avoid the arranged dates set by his grandmother.

This started a hilarious and exciting situation between the two protagonists.
