1. Call It Love (2023)

This K-drama stars your favorite actors Lee Sung-kyung and Kim Young-kwang as the main characters. The story of the series revolves around their love story, which is a little more complicated than a couple would like it to be.

2. Adamas (2022)

However, one case gets them more interested, but to solve it they need access to Adamas, a diamond arrow that will reveal all the darkest secrets to them.

3. First Responders (2022-2023)

It's not common for K-dramas to last longer than one season, but this series managed to do it.

4. Moving (2023)

Another South Korean take on teenagers with superpowers, the series focuses on three characters at once: Kim Bong Seok, Jang Hee Soo, and Lee Gang Hoon.

5. One Dollar Lawyer (2022)

This K-drama is definitely a must-watch for fans of entertaining legal dramas. However, the premise of this particular show is even more intriguing as it follows the super lawyer, Cheon Ji Hun, who has his own ways of making fools out of expensive attorneys and their well-to-do clients.

6. Connect (2022)

Another example of a successful South Korean drama based on a webtoon. Connect has a very atypical premise as it follows Ha Dong Soo, a special human being with the superpower to heal people, who unfortunately becomes a victim of human traffickers. They remove his eye and leave him for dead.

Dong Soo survives and later discovers that his stolen eye has been transplanted into a serial killer. Now he can witness everything the criminal does, which makes him want to stop the man from killing innocent people. The series is definitely a must-watch for the fans of dark dramas.

7. May It Please The Court (2022)
