Ready for some good old workplace romance?

While not all K-dramas are alike, and there are plenty of popular South Korean series that focus on sci-fi, horror, or other genres, romance still occupies a large portion of K-dramaland and a special place in the hearts of fans.

Romantic plots on South Korean television are varied, often spiced with magic, drama, or slice-of-life, and cover numerous sub-genres. Among them, workplace romances stand out and have an army of fans.

Shows in which love is born out of work or business relationships, such as Business Proposal, seem to never fail to captivate viewers and become global hits.
