10 Breakup Free K-Dramas To Prove True Love Exists

Every romantic story is unique to the people who create it, and that's what makes the genre so compelling to all viewers. However, romantic K-dramas tend to push a single structure, where two leads are destined to suffer a temporary breakup in order to realize how much they love each other.

If you're not inclined to believe that two people need to be separated in order to learn the power of their own feelings, this list of shows is for you.

Sit back, relax, and enjoy characters who can work through their differences, resolve their conflicts, and be honest about their feelings without added drama.

Shooting Stars (2022)

Instead of making viewers fall in love with two characters and then separating them one episode before the finale, Shooting Star sets up a different kind of conflict. In this K-drama, top celebrity Gong Tae Sung and the head of the PR management agency Oh Han Byul will go on a journey from enemies to lovers and learn to accept each other's flaws.

Our Beloved Summer (2021)

Another way to never break up two lovers is to start with the breakup and work your way out. When two people who dated in high school and promised never to see each other again break their promise, the romance slowly begins to build. This realistic, slow-paced and sweet drama will remind you to always pay attention to the little things and gestures.

Crazy Love (2022)

Crazy Love is a truly crazy story that manages to mix all the possible tropes you can think of into a beautifully made cocktail.

King The Land (2023)

King The Land is not the show to watch for those who don't believe in love at first sight. Or maybe just to prove how wrong you were.

Her Private Life (2019)

There's always more to a person than meets the eye. This is certainly true for Sung Deok Mi, who works as a museum curator by day and runs one of the biggest fan websites by night.
