Looking for a new K-drama to cozy up to this fall? Whether you're in the mood to laugh, cry, or fall in love, we've got you covered! Here are the top 5 new Korean dramas streaming this month on DramaFever!
In this comedic tale of riches to rags, Byun Hyuk (Choi Si Won, She Was Pretty) is the narcissistic and carefree heir to Gangsu Group, but also a die-hard romantic who chooses the ordinary life after meeting the girl of his dreams. His lofty ideas of romance and the belief that people are inherently good adds to his naïveté, which spurs him to leave his opulent living quarters and move into a cramped studio apartment and actually work to make a living. His zero life experience pales in comparison to the girl he hopes to woo, Baek Joon (Kang So Ra, Jeju Island Gatsby). A college grad unable to land a full-time position, Baek Joon has to work numerous part-time jobs in order to make ends meet. Her strong-willed, optimistic outlook on life keeps her afloat, but no amount of positivity can prepare her for the seemingly incompetent Byun Hyuk. If there's anyone who can keep Byun Hyuk in line, it's his secretary, Kwon Jae Hoon (Gong Myung, The Bride of the Water God). Handsome and mature, Jae Hoon dreams of rising above his humble roots and someday living the life of luxury Byun Hyuk has left behind. Too bad that caring for an immature heir is a 24/7 gig.
2. The Package
Experience a state of wanderlust with The Package, a drama about a group of travelers exploring the beautiful landscape of France. Led by trusty tour guide, Yoon So So (Lee Yeon Hee, Detective K: Secret of the Lost Island), come along with her group of Korean tourists looking for a great escape beyond the popular tourist attractions. So So's newest assignment is leading eight tourists from Korea, all with differing personalities. Having to make sure everyone has an enjoyable time on this tour is no easy endeavor, though, especially when putting these strangers in one room means a greater chance of butting heads. Each person has a unique reason for this trip, however: San Ma Ru (Jung Yong Hwa, Three Musketeers) is recovering from a recent breakup, Kim Kyung Jae (Choi Woo Shik, Pride and Prejudice) has been dating his girlfriend for ten years, Jung Yeon Sung (Ryu Seung Soo, My Beautiful Bride) has joined the tour with someone whom she doesn't wish to publicly disclose their relationship status,Han So Ran (Han Si Eun, Another Oh Hae Young) is a web designer, Oh Gab Soo (Jung Kyu Soo, Ruler:Ruler: Master of the Mask) is a stubborn man who is constantly picking a fight, Han Book Ja (Lee Ji Hyun) has been caring for her sick husband, Na Hyun (Park Yoo Na, Stranger) whose age is unknown, and a mysterious man (Yoon Park, My Shy Boss), who seems to only be on the tour to be closer to Yoon So So.
Married couple Choi Ban Do (Son Ho Jun from Answer Me 1994, Mrs. Cop) and Ma Jin Joo (Jang Na Ra from One More Happy Ending, Fated To Love You) are not happy. Now 38 years old, they have been together for what seems like forever because they got married super young. As the passion of young love died, so did their liking for each other. They both began regretting their decision. Choi Ban Do hates being the breadwinner. Ma Jin Joo feels suffocated as a housewife. Slowly, they begin to hate each other and realize their marriage might have been a mistake. But mistakes are meant to be corrected. Choi Ban Do and Ma Jin Joo travel through time. They land back to their university days, when they were in their 20s. And before they can even recover from the shock, the real blast from the past shows up in the form of their best, most irritating friends. Ahn Jae Woo (Heo Jung Min, My Shy Boss) is the school weakling. Ko Dok Jae (Lee Yi-kyung (Mirror of the Witch) is a charming but naive heartthrob. They are Choi Ban Do’s buddies in the civil engineering department at college, and remind him of his happier days before he met Ma Jin Joo. Yoon Bo Reum (Han Bo Reum, Let’s Fight Ghost) is an easy-going, fun-loving former cheerleader. Chun Sul (Jo Hye Jung, Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo) is the goody two-shoes who sometimes errs on the wrong side of sarcasm. They are Ma Jin Joo’s best friends, and they also remind her of the time when she was free of the burden that was being married to Choi Ban Do. These are the people and places that defined the best years of Choi Ban Do and Ma Jin Joo’s life. They united there for the first time. Now, the second time around, will they still be a couple or will they realize that going back means they no longer have to be?
Lee Hyun Soo (Seo Hyun Jin) is confident, honest and the graduate of a prestigious university. After 10 years as an assistant writer, she is finally getting some well-earned recognition as a screenwriter, and unlike the theatrics in dramas, the pragmatic writer doesn't believe in concepts such as "love at first sight." French food chef Jung Sun (Yang Se Jong) is the owner of the highly-regarded restaurant Good Soup. He is competitive, charming and immensely talented. Having attended culinary school in Paris, Jung Sun is also very confident in his own intuition and doesn’t believe in the traditional hierarchy typically found in the kitchen. Past his exterior confidence, though, is a man scarred by his relationship with his mother, who lives her life with cold practicality, whereas he lives on passion and instinct. Hyun Soo and Jung Sun meet in an online forum under the usernames “Jane” and “Good Soup," respectively. In spite of their opposing personalities, they begin chatting and falling for each other. But online forums can only tell you so much about a person. Ji Hong Ah (Jo Bo Ah from Sweet Stranger and Me) is the daughter of a successful CEO, and is also an aspiring drama writer. Unlike her friend, she has little need for money and lives life with the knowledge that everything will be handed to her. Whenever she is with Hyun Soo, she gets all the attention--until she meets and falls in love with respected chef Jung Sun, that is. Park Jung Woo (Kim Jae Wookfrom Voice) is the CEO of a successful entertainment agency. A huge fan of Jung Sun’s cooking, Park Jung Woo was actually the primary investor in Good Soup. He shares a good relationship with Jung Soo, until he falls for Hyun Soo and starts seeing the chef as a rival. Together, these four wildly different friends and budding lovers try to navigate life, butting heads with each other along the way. But even in the digital age, Google can’t provide all the answers. As they soon learn, online-only acquaintances can’t handle the temperature of love.
5. Andante
Meet Lee Shi Kyung (EXO's Kai, Choco Bank), a teenage computer gamer and local legend who knows little outside of his computer screen. His biggest challenge yet? Moving to the countryside and doing the one thing he completely dreads: interacting with actual people. He'll need an entirely different set of skills if he hopes to survive in his new rural surroundings. But for someone who shies away from any social contact, he keeps running into the same two people in his new high school: Park Ga Ram (Baek Chul Min, Kill Me, Heal Me), a warm-hearted student who dreams of becoming a doctor, and Kim Bom (Kim Jin Kyung), a girl who somehow manages to pull off being seemingly cool and shy at the same time. The boss fights Shi Kyung has faced in the gaming world won't measure up to the very real obstacles set before him at school: the rebel who decides to hate the new guy, the chatty school gossip, the bashful school president, and the listless girl with no ambition. Dealing with each of these personalities is only the tip of the iceberg. But perhaps in a fast-paced age of information, our hero could find the true meaning of life, even if it happens just a tad bit slower.
