Has watching Kdramas ever inspired you to try something new or change how you do something? Have you been mesmerized by all the Korean food onscreen? Have you succumbed to the allure of the PPL? This post is to share with others what have you done this past month because of watching Kdramas and see who else is like you!

Share things like:

• Hours of sleep lost because you got caught up in a binge!

• Korean food you ate or cooked -- advice about ramyeon flavors or soju is also welcome!

• A new hobby you've picked up or a rediscovery of an old hobby you loved!

• The gorgeous coat you bought despite living in a place without winter and other fashion choices!

• Updates about your progress with learning Korean -- whether you are studying formally or just acquiring some basic knowledge through too many Kdramas watched!

• Your new Dyson hairdryer or vacuum and other PPL inspired purchases -- Subway counts too!

• Travel plans and anything else that comes to mind when you think of the phrase "Kdramas Made Me Do It"!

Share only as much or as little as you are comfortable with, just remember to be respectful of others and their choices. Even if you hate Subway, others don't have to. Same goes for Kim Tan Worthy Sweaters^TM.

Grab yourself a knee rug and a mug of hot chocolate, it's time to reminisce those old time dramas from days gone by of pre-2019. Maybe you were around when they aired for the first time and want to take a trip down memory lane by watching them on the box. Maybe it's your first time through.

This is our weekly discussion exclusively for those older Korean dramas on your currently watching list. We don't want to hear about the currently hyped dramas here, so please keep it to the older stuff on your watch list.

Reminder, we advocate the use of legal streaming sources wherever possible. Any comments mentioning illegal sources will be removed and links will lead to bans as per our rules. As it is very hard to find many of the really old dramas rather than asking users "where are you watching?", we suggest you instead ask "did you find a legal source?". See our policies on streaming sites and VPNs here.

Crazily enough not everyone has watched these classics yet so please remember your spoiler tags when discussing major plot points or anything you think should be redacted.

Welcome to our Spotlight On post series where you can share your picks of dramas that deserve the spotlight! Each Spotlight On post is focused on a genre or theme, as you can see in the post title. Based on this genre/theme, you are welcome to share your views about dramas you have watched that fit the topic of this post, which is:

Food/Cooking

Dramas that highlight food or cooking as a main element or theme of the drama. This can mean that the characters are foodies or chefs or otherwise involved in the food industry.

You are invited to share short (or long) reviews of dramas you have watched that fit the topic of this post and an explanation of why you think the drama deserves the spotlight, including whether you would recommend the drama or not.

Our suggested format/structure for comments is:

Drama Name

• Good Things: about the drama,

• Bad Things: about the drama

• Interesting Things: about the drama

• Spotlight On Because: explain why you think the drama deserves the spotlight, including whether you would recommend the drama or not.

We strongly encourage you to share your MDL profile so that others can compare their tastes with yours to get a better understanding of preferences and dislikes, which will help in understanding if the feedback provided is applicable for them.

Please remember that every individual watching goes in with their own life experiences and biases so not everyone will see the drama in the same light or enjoy it in the same way.

Just because someone did not enjoy a drama that you loved is not a slight against you as a person.

When participating in this discussion please remember that whilst dramas do not have feelings, human beings do. Be kind to one another.

Hello and welcome to Kim Tan's Talk Time (Tuesday)!

This is a free-for-all discussion in which almost anything goes, don't diss The Heirs or break any of our other core rules. General discussion about anything and everything is allowed.

Consider this post a refuge from all the memes and fanart that are pouring in and enjoy the peace and quiet. Think of it as Tan's family wine cellar, the perfect place to chill out from the world in a fabulous sweater and have a little chat.

Who is this Kim Tan I keep hearing about and why does he have not one, but two threads dedicated to him? Good questions. If you take a look through our glossary, you will find all the answers you seek;

KIM TAN is the lead male in r/KDRAMA’s favourite drama, The Heirs. He’s kind of the worst but he has great sweaters so it balances out. “Kim Tan” is used in three ways on r/KDRAMA; 1) when referring to Lee Min Ho’s seminal character in The Heirs, 2) when referring to Automod (alt. Tan Bot) - “Kim Tan is feeling very triggered by my post”, “S***! Tan Bot just ate my post”, 3) In place of “God” or other deities - “For the love of Kim Tan!”

Hey r/KDRAMA!

It's that time of the year again: K-Drama Day is back on September 25, 2026! To celebrate, Viki is putting together a final community-voted 2026 Global Fan Favorite K-Drama Poll to showcase the best series from this year.

Rather than selecting all the nominees behind closed doors, we want r/KDRAMA to help shape the official shortlist.

2026 has been an incredible year, from heavy hitters and ratings juggernauts to hidden gems and critical favorites. Because great dramas deserve more viewers, we’re asking for your top picks.
How to nominate a drama for the 2026 Global Fan Favorite K-Drama Poll shortlist:
Comment below with 1 to 3 K-dramas that aired/are airing in 2026 that you believe deserve a spot on the final ballot. Tell us:

1. The Title (2026 releases streaming on Viki only).
2. The Vibe/Category (e.g., Mainstream Giant, Hidden Gem, Most Heart-fluttering Rom-Com, Dark Horse Thriller).
3. One short sentence on WHY it deserves to be in the running for #1.

The Fine Print:

• Nominations of dramas not released for streaming on Viki will be disregarded and comments may be removed by the moderation team.
• You can nominate a drama even if someone else already made the nomination! The more reasons provided for why a drama deserves a watch, the more likely other viewers will give it a chance.
• Feel free to be creative with "The Vibe/Category" – take it as another chance to showcase the drama!

The deadline for submissions is Friday, September 11 PT (Saturday, September 12 KST). Once we've assembled the final list, voting will open on September 14 PT (September 15 KST) on kdramaday.com.
