These K-dramas all seem pretty formulaic, but I like them for pure escapism.

The ones that I have watched to completion so far in rank order

1. CLOY Netflix
2. Descendants of the Sun (the Korean version, not the Vietnamese version) Hulu
3. Chocolate Netflix
4. Something in the Rain Netflix
5. Because It's My First Life Rakuten Viki

Not yet finished with

1. Mr. Sunshine Netflix
2. One Spring Night Netflix

I recently finished watching “100 Days My Prince”
set in the days of Korean royalty. It was sweet. I liked the hero and heroine who were well-matched.

I've just finished Start Up and loved it for the story and the romance. (Do not watch if you can't suspend disbelief about actual start up realities. Def not the point of the show.)

Is the cinematography in these other dramas as good as Crash Landing? Also, the small details? The director, lighting, music is superb.

Kdramas are known for their cinematography. They are often really beautiful-- not just the cinematography, but the sets and clothing, too. Mr. Sunshine was stunningly beautiful.

Also, Kdramas typically all have an original soundtrack, often with contributions from popular music stars, that gets released. You can find them on YouTube and Spotify.

My Love from the Star, another favorite. I enjoyed SKY Castle too, less romance, more drama.

Chicago Typewriter was really good.

If you like epic historical dramas like Mr. Sunshine, try My Country: The New Age.

I'm new to K dramas and I heard Crash Landing is the best so kind of sad that nothing else compares.

This is my assessment so far as well.

Yes, most of the newer ones are very beautiful, like it's a prerequisite. However it'll vary quite a bit from show to show. Just like in the US, no one would expect comparable visuals from one show to the next, or comparable humor, or comparable romance. They're all different.

All just like in the US, a handful of shows are going to be top notch, and others are going to be less than top notch and have more niche appeal. You will absolutely find other kdramas that you love as much as Crash Landing, but what they are depends on what exactly it was you loved the most about the show. I've been watching kdramas for 5-6 years and I'm sure there are some others on this thread who've watched quite a few as well. If you want to share what you loved about it the most, we can help direct you to some others that you may also love. They won't all be on Netflix, of course - it's a small sliver of what's out there.

Thank you. That’s nice of you. This is what I liked:

1. Hyun Bin is super good looking by all world standards. It’s like I’ve been hit in the head. Had no idea he existed.
2. The scenes in the Korean village are an immersive experience. It’s fascinating. The dialogues and acting of Captain Ri’s squad, and the village women are funny. Episodes 1-9 were my favorite.
3. The heroine’s beauty is not comparable to the hero’s but she is a good actress and their ying yang in the drama and on-screen chemistry is good.
4. The focus on the smallest details. I’ve watched the hair tying scene 7 times.
5. How a deep romance can be portrayed without sex.
6. The respect for women. Kind of cheesy. But adds to the escapist elements in the drama.

Agree on all points and laughed out loud at your #1. So true!

Here's a video of the orchestra playing the music for the North Korean village scenes. I love it so much.
