One of my friends recently asked me what my top 3 Kdramas are, and then today I found a Kdrama soundtrack playlist on Spotify with songs from dramas I’ve never seen. That got me into thinking, what are my top 10, and how many have I actually watched over the years? 

My top 10 have changed over the years (as I slowly outgrew high school dramas), so this isn’t exactly definitive, but I was amazed to find out the total number I’ve seen is a whopping FIFTY SEVEN. Not to mention the ones that I started and didn’t finish for various reasons.

I know not everyone is as open about this guilty pleasure/escape mechanism as I am, but I know you’re out there, and you know who you are! Thought this might interest you, especially if you’re looking for a few to add to your list to watch. I AM ALSO VERY OPEN TO SUGGESTIONS TO ADD TO MY LIST! The first 10 are my top 10 obviously (also the ones I’ve watched more than once), 11-20 are additional dramas that made me laugh, cry, or laugh/cry a lot, in no particular order, and the rest are in no particular order.
**UPDATED 4/2016: I added some Taiwanese dramas I love, and some more kdramas I’ve seen. Just thought it would be nice to keep a running tally.**
