I don’t know what it was about 2024, but the year felt uneventful yet fulfilling at the same time. Maybe it’s because, when compared to 2020, there weren’t as many big titles. We didn’t really have anything like Crash Landing on You, The King: Eternal Monarch, or It’s Okay to Not Be Okay. But looking back on my watched shows, I was perfectly content all year long. I had some belly-laughs, some unexpected swoons, some — ahem, a lot of — tears.
Since I’d say that 2024 has given me plenty of gifts, I thought I’d group together my most noteworthy dramas in categorized “gift sets.” I’m a gal who loves receiving a good tea set or pajama set for Christmas, but come on, what’s better than the gift of k-dramas?
