Nowadays, everything seems to be better when there's a "K" attached to it. This is especially true when it comes to TV shows, where every month or so there seems to be a new K-drama for fans to obsessively binge watch. Some shows have us chuckling, others make us shed tears, but all of them leave us with big smiles on our faces. We always hope that there's a "Next Episode" button to click after the credits roll!
