Korean actors often turn our knight in shining armor, rescuing us from the monotony of our daily lives, turning on their enigmatic charm. And to put this larger-than-life front, they charge a hefty amount. The recent years saw Korean dramas booming like never before – especially in 2020, Hallyuwood achieved a new high, breaking all the streaming records on Netflix. From Lee Min Ho featuring in The King: Eternal Monarch to Hyun Bin headlining Crash Landing On You, many top leads made a comeback in 2020.

Korean dramas have been drawing global attention for over a decade now! But the Hallyuwave peaked during the Covid-19 pandemic-induced lockdown. When the entire world was limited to the boundaries of the four walls, abiding by stay-at-home orders, many sought comfort in K-dramas, and for all right reasons! In 2021, Netflix also outdid itself, bringing some of the best K-drama originals that viewers could not help but get addicted to, insinuating a global K-frenzy that we do not see dying anytime soon.
Some of the top K-dramas that Netflix came through in 2020 include Start-up (Nam Joo Hyuk), Sweet Home (Song Kang), It’s Okay To Be Not Okay (Kim Soo Hyun), Crash Landing On You (Hyun Bin), and The King: Eternal Monarch (Lee Min Ho).
