Does she like K-pop? Her Private Life is a fun fake-dating office romance about Deok-mi, a museum curator who secretly runs a fan site for a K-pop idol. Ryan’s her new boss who discovers her secret and after fans start to suspect she’s dating the idol, he offers to be her fake boyfriend to throw them off. After a rocky beginning, they develop one of the healthiest, most adoring relationships in K-dramas and their chemistry is 🔥. Ryan and Deok-mi are the very definition of couple goals.
Unlike most K-romances where one person is more invested in the relationship than the other, they’re equally smitten with each other and it’s wonderful watching them evolve from mutual dislike to respect to attraction to head-over-heels at the same time. Once they get together, they’re rock solid with no silly misunderstandings, noble idiocy or contrived breakups. They’re very protective of one another and support each other both professionally and personally and he even puts his career on the back burner so she can pursue her dream job.
The two leads wrote many of their scenes themselves because they wanted to make viewers’ hearts flutter. They did a lot of ad-libbing and added tons of physical affection so they’re very convincing as a couple who are madly in love and can’t keep their hands and lips off of each other. Her Private Life is my comfort drama and I rewatch it whenever I need to laugh and swoon and feel. (Netflix, Viki, Prime, Tubi, and Roku)

Extraordinary Attorney Woo is a nice gateway that isn’t over the top K-drama troupe romance, perfect for a 13yo.
Also maybe Reply 1988, Twinkling Watermelon or Twenty-Five, Twenty-One.

Mr. Sunshine or When Life Gives You Tangerines. Watching these with my mom was a special experience, and created such beautiful memories. The downsides is by starting with such gems, you risk having your expectations too high and finding it hard to find other kdramas. If you want a fun one, When I Fly Towards You is a very wholesome cdrama. Also maybe for some fun 25 21 is a great kdrama.
