[PICK] 5 Best Korean Workplace Romance TV Dramas

tvN Touch Your Heart (2019)

Yoo In Na and Lee Dong Wook, who played lovers in Guardian: The Lonely and Great God, teamed up again as a couple in Touch Your Heart. Based on a web novel of the same name, the show centers on a top star who loses her fame after getting embroiled in a scandal. To earn a major role in a legal drama, she gets a job at a law firm by posing as a secretary. The fact that the fictional actress, who is notorious for her terrible acting skills, has to act as a secretary in her real-life at a law firm adds laughter and tension to the show. Yoo In Na also added liveliness to the show as she made a lovely portrayal of Oh Jin Shim, the top star with a little bit of bluff and a little bit of lack of intelligence. Lee Dong Wook stars as Kwon Jung Rok, a workaholic lawyer who seems to lack the human touch. He made the viewer’s heart flutter as he gradually became a passionate lover of Oh Jin Shim. Yoo In Na and Lee Dong Wook showed natural chemistry that was far different from what they had shown in Guardian.

[PICK] The 5 Best Reality TV Shows Starring Bigtime South Korean Actors

Imagine what it would be like to see celebrities in a totally different setting from their fancy everyday city life. More and more reality TV shows are beginning to carry out their episodes revolving around big actors and actresses. Those famous stars who we get to see in mountains, seasides, or quiet hanoks would often reveal their humane side that we never expected to see from them. Perhaps it’s why Cha Tae Hyun and Jo In Sung’s Unexpected Business 2, which showcases the growth of rookie mart clerks, is gaining huge popularity among viewers. So without further ado, let’s take a look at five of the best reality TV shows that feature our all-time favorite actors.

JTBC’s ‘Sea of Hope‘

Sea of Hope is a variety show starring top celebrities as the employees at a seaside bar, preparing homemade dishes and performing music for guests. It made headlines with its star-studded cast, Yoon Jong Shin, Lee Ji Ah, Kim Go Eun, Lee Dong Wook, Onew and AKMU’s Lee Suhyun, and other celebrities like BLACKPINK’s Rosé and Sunwoo Junga making special appearances. However, the show didn’t do well in ratings. Although it constantly showed footage of stars cooking delicious meals and picking up garbage at the beach, viewers tuned out of the show saying that there is too much going on in the show. Others left good reviews on the show as it pointed out some of the crucial environmental issues that deserve a second look by using a fresh format.

*** I've watched "Bad and Crazy" again and this time continuously since I wasn't able to do this during airing because of lack of time. As expected, Lee Dong Wook is always in great form. “Bad and Crazy” is not quite bad.. but, is full of craziness. ....so crazy that you can't help but jump off your bed. The first few episodes didn't disappoint. It has lots of fun! It’s a WELL MADE FAST PACED ACTION DRAMA! But, there are points where it feels quite unbelievable. Overall, I enjoyed this show for what it is. After the bromance with Kim Bum in “Tale of the Nine-Tailed, Lee Dong Wook comes with his new bromance partner. The chemistry between the Lee Dong Wook and Wi Ha Joon is amazing. “Bad and Crazy” has a lot of comedy. Believe me, you will not be bored in this drama. :heart3:
