No one will be able to tear themselves away from these four dramas – watch them in a day or two

Korean television has long captured the attention of Russian viewers, but only a few of its dramas can be called truly cult. Original and addictive series are released in South Korea as rarely as in Hollywood. Although Asian serial projects have one undeniable advantage: they are many times more exotic than boring American shows.

We have selected 4 dramas for you that you simply cannot stop watching.

Under the Queen’s Umbrella, 2022

Kim Hye-soo stars as a queen who tries to turn her unwitting sons into worthy princes.

The writers managed to combine comedy and drama perfectly. The adventures of Queen Hwaryeong and her dimwitted heirs are really interesting and very funny to follow. And since the series only consists of 16 episodes, Under the Queen’s Umbrella can easily be watched in a few days.
