*** I hope Lee Dong Wook will take the offer to star in the new Korean drama "Bad and Crazy."  The drama is about a materialistic police detective who has another personality awaken in him, which transforms him into a champion for justice that fights police corruption. He would play as the police detective role. "Bad and Crazy" has plans to air on OCN. I hope we could get to hear his decision here soon. I hope he finds the story attractive since I would love another Lee Dong Wook drama.

Lee Gon & Jo Yeong, Seo Jun & Chorong and more: 6 KDrama bromances that will make you want a best friend ASAP

Who doesn’t need some love and friendship in their lives? Bringing you the top bromances in KDrama! Take a look.

 

KDramas make love seem like the most gorgeous thing in the entire universe. The love between friends, between lovers, between parents or even strangers. So it’s not really a shock to find bromances to be a part of the majority of shows. Sure while we swoon over the lead couples and their cheesy moments, we’re also blessed with many goofy moments of two very close friends too! 

 

Let’s be honest, we all have close or best friends that we have a great bond with. We don’t mind walking hand in hand with them, hugging them or doing silly stuff around them. That’s pretty much the same case with the KDramas too! They stay best friends either from childhood, or go through hardships together and become close friends - whatever the case, they’re always there for our leads. Sp let’s get into the list of best bromances in KDrama that’ll make you wish you had one too! 

 

 

Kim Shin and Wang Yeo in Goblin

 

 

The number one mention on any top bromance list is the classic love-hate friendship of Kim Shin (Gong Yoo) and the Grim Reaper, Wang Yeo (Lee Dong Wook) in Goblin. Even through a past full of struggles, the unexpected friendship that these two characters got themselves into is nothing less than adorable. When they’re both together, they’re either the smartest duo or the dumbest duo to exist. From Kim Shin not letting Wang Yeo sleep and trying out different outfits with props to ask him what would be better when Eun Tak summons him, to both of them getting ready with their coats to go to the ‘playstore’, their bond is a precious one. Also, who can forget them walking in swag while carrying groceries in a tunnel? No one can! This is one epic bromance that you should never miss out on!

12 “Enemies To Lovers” K-Drama Couples With Fiery Chemistry

 

We all love this trope. In K-dramas, when a man and woman meet and absolutely despise each other, they are quick to discover that they may actually have feelings for each other. There is a fine line between love and hate after all, am I right? This trope is always successful in bringing all the feels as we’re able to see the cold-hearted OTP turn from being hateful and angry towards each other to being warm and loving. Here are 12 “enemies to lovers” K-drama couples that exude intense chemistry.

 

Disclaimer: We’re talking SIZZLING, too hot to handle, chemistry!

 

 

12. “Touch Your Heart”

 

When Kwon Jung Rok (Lee Dong Wook) first meets Oh Yoon Seo (Yoo In Na), the two completely butt heads. They are opposites in personality and professions; Jung Rok is a well-respected attorney and Yoon Seo is a famous celebrity. Yoon Seo begins working as Jung Rok’s secretary to get more acquainted for a future acting gig, and as much as he despises this situation, he reluctantly agrees.

 

Many of you may remember this beautiful duo in their roles in “Goblin.” Lee Dong Wook played the Grim Reaper and Yoo In Na played his long lost love Sunny. The two had such undeniable chemistry in that drama that fans were ecstatic to see them returning on the small screen as main leads. They did not disappoint in “Touch Your Heart.” Their chemistry was enigmatic as ever and it’s almost sad that we can only admire the couple in the dramaworld.

 

 

If you want to see their fiery chemistry, catch them in the first episode here:

*** Since LDW will join the star-studded cast of the movie "Happy New Year," it makes the film all the more exciting. LDW being part of the upcoming movie is a bonus. The movie falls under the genre of romantic comedy. The film will be released also in TVing, even though there are no definite release dates yet. It's been quite a while since he graced the big screen, which makes this movie worth watching. The fact that so many A-list artists are part of the movie meant that the movie is

 

certainly a high-budget one.
