        I started watching it because I wanted to see what the hype was about, but I was instantly impressed by just how good it was. The writing, acting, direction and themes are consistently strong, and while the ending was a little strange, it’s overall phenomenal.

    Train to Busan

    It’s the only Korean movie I’ve watched. I guess it’s technically a zombie/horror movie but I would argue that it’s still pretty dramatic and should count as a drama.

    Also, it’s a solid movie. Would recommend.

    The Man From Nowhere gets my vote.

    Parasite, Train to Busan, and classic Oldboy are other great ones off the top of my head

    Not a lot but the wife and I enjoyed Attorney Wu and Alchemy of Souls. Simple storyline and sometimes unpredictable.

    Crash Landing on You (2019) has like every single romantic comedy trope and it was still fun. Kingdom (2019) was also good. It was a fresh take on zombies and suspenseful, but season 2 left on a cliffhanger and season 3 is in limbo.

    Everything that Bong Joon Ho has ever made. I’ve recently watched Mother and Memories of murder and after watching these, including Parasite, I’ve got to say he is one of my favorite directors. He is just amazing.

    Also I’ve got to say that some of my favorite movies are korean movies. They got some amazing horror movies like I Saw The Devil. I’m going to continue watching them as they are amazing at what they do.
