Recs for shows that gets you hooked after first episode?

    I went through a pretty major KDrama slump. I have a challenging time sticking through more than one episode to get hooked onto the show, plot or characters. I recently just finally watched dr. Romantic 2 and king’s affection. Both I put off cuz I thought it was primarily love plot but got hooked on the trauma/drama of the characters shown in the first episode (the visuals of the ML helped haha).

    Any recommendations? omegle  xender Preferably newer dramas. Also been into sageuks too.

    Currently watching extraordinary attorney woo (but ugh have to wait for episodes every week). Gave cafe minamdang (couldn’t get into it) and alchemy of souls (couldn’t get into it either).

    Thanks!

    maybe try out 'Why her?', the last two episode will air at the end of this week


    the female lead's character is pretty interesting, she cares about nothing besides getting more succes and power but has a hidden reason behind it. She has a lot of flaws, makes bad decisions and all together not your typical perfect fl, it all comes from her past experiences so it's not out of nowhere either


    the main antagonist is menacing and super charismatic, you get the sense that he doesn't view people the same way we do, they are more like insects or puppets for him to use. He and the female lead's cat-and-mouse game is for sure entertaining


    my problems with the drama: the romance plot is so out of place, you watch this dark and serious drama where the character's life ends or gets ruined in one scene and then you get a sweet romantic scene out of nowhere, it's so jarring, also the political scenes bore me a bit


    plus the writing is not very thorough hence some decisions that the characters make are laughably bad and not at all in line with their character
