7 K-Dramas With the Sweetest Happily Ever After Endings
For those who love a good finale.
The South Korean TV industry is becoming more and more popular every day. People who started with Squid Game have now become true K-drama fans, binging a whole series over the weekend (it's a good thing almost all of them only last one season).
The industry offers a lot to its fans: there are shows of every genre, and it's impossible to say that some are more successful than others, as they all seem to be equally perfect most of the time.
However, there are many shows that end badly for the sake of the story, and that's something that makes us sad, so we decided to find 7 brilliant K-dramas with the mwah endings. Here they are!
1. The Glory
Was there any other way to start this list? We don't think so. The best revenge drama ever made is definitely The Glory. The K-drama gives viewers a story that, if not resolved in the end, would have been useless and nonsensical writing.
At the center of the show we have a young girl who was bullied terribly at school. To the point that she was forced to leave the place. But she wasn't broken, or at least she didn't stay that way for long. Park Yeon-jin worked out every little detail of her revenge plan so that every bully got exactly what he deserved.
2. Crash Landing On You
For the fans of forbidden love story concepts, this show is a must watch. Crash Landing On You tells the story of a South Korean girl, Yoon Se-ri, and a North Korean man, Ri Jeong-hyeok, who have found each other against all odds.
When Se-ri, who was paragliding at the time, lands in North Korea because of a tornado, she meets the army general Jeong-hyeok. He helps her not to get caught and later brings her back to South Korea. The story doesn't end there, though, so our beloved characters have to wait a little longer to be reunited in the finale.
3. Our Beloved Summer

Easily one of the most beautiful romance stories ever, the show focuses on a couple who were together when they were young, but due to some personal circumstances, they broke up.
However, ten years later they are brought back together and this time they are determined to save their relationship. The ending of the story is cheesy, but still beautiful and full of hope for those who have trouble believing in the concept of true love.
4. Little Women
The South Korean version of Louisa May Alcott's Little Women is a lot darker than the original, but that doesn't make it any less compelling. All the murders, corruption, and secrets at the heart of the story are closely tied to three sisters who never seemed to have normal lives.
In the finale, however, they all get what they always wanted. The oldest sister becomes a journalist and fulfills her dream, the second sister finally buys her own house and the third sister goes on a vacation of her life.
5. Hometown Cha Cha Cha
One of the most heartwarming dramas ever created in South Korea, Hometown Cha Cha Cha revolves around a young girl named Yoon Hye-jin who is tired of living in the big city and, after another argument with her boss, decides to move from Seoul to a small village called Gongjin.
There she finally finds the peace she longed for and meets the love of her life. The show ends with the proposal scene, but not the usual one, but a double one: they both proposed to each other and made the fans cry like babies.
6. Beyond Evil
Beyond Evil is the show that will serve justice to those who always want "good" to win. However, the good in this show is a questionable concept. This K-drama is filled with suspense, mystery, corruption, and murder.
At the center of the story are two detectives who reluctantly team up to save the world from terrible criminals. They develop a true friendship and make the world a better place by the end of the story.
7. The Red Sleeve
The fans of immortal love stories will definitely put this one on their top list after watching it. The Red Sleeve tells the story of a young girl, a smart and talented police officer named Seong Deok-im and Yi-san, who was a prince back then.
They develop a close relationship, fall in love and live happily ever after. He becomes a king and she becomes his queen. But the finale of the story is actually bittersweet, because at the end of the series she dies, but only to be reunited with her one true love, King Jeongjo, in the afterlife.
