This article might contain spoilers.

1. "Dr.Romantic 1"

SBS

Starring: Yoo YeonSeok, Seo HyunJin and Han SeokKyu

Summary: "Dr.Romantic 1" tells the story of Dr.Kim (Han SeokKyu), a gifted doctor who once had an immense reputation. He was called the "Hands Of God", but he goes missing only to be found working in a rural, old hospital where he taught young surgeons. Kang DongJoo (Yoo YeonSeok) and Yoon SeoJung (Seo HyunJin) became doctors for a reputation and to prove themselves, but after meeting Teacher Kim, they learn about the real meaning of their job.

Reasons To Watch: If you are someone who enjoys medical dramas, this one is for you. Han GyeJeol in "Kokdu: Seasons Of Diety" is an ambitious doctor who also suffered because she had a weak academic background. We also witness how there was still corruption and the issues that can reside in a hospital. "Dr.Romantic" explores more of that part. The drama will keep you on an edge and leave you as a completely different person.

2. "Goblin: The Lonely And Great God"

Starring: Gong Yoo, Kim GoEun, Lee DongWook, Yoo InA, and BTOB's SungJae

Summary: Kim Shin (Gong Yoo) was an unbeatable general, also loved by the common public, but things went downhill when the young king began to feel threatened by his power. Kim Shin is ordered to be killed but he comes back to life as a Dokkaebi (Goblin). His immortal life once felt like a blessing, but he soon realized that it was a curse. The only one who can free him will be the 'Goblin's Bride', the only one who can pull out the sword from his chest.

Ji EunTak (Kim GoEun) is a high school student who can see ghosts and they tell her that she is the goblin's wife. On her birthday, she blows out her birthday candle when Kim Shin appears before her. And so begins a warm yet tragic tale of love.

Reasons To Watch: If you loved the story of a super natural being cursed for eternity and a human who can be the only one to end it, this drama is for you. Just like how Han GyeJeol can put an end to Kokdu's eternal life, Ji EunTak could put an end to the Goblin's curse.
