The Great Seducer
위대한 유혹자
Original work: Les Liaisons dangereuses by Pierre Choderlos de Laclos.
Channel: MBC
Episodes: 32
Release period: March 12 to May 1, 2018
Kwon Shi Hyun decided to bet his life in a dangerous game: that of seducing Eun Tae Hee. His target is twenty years old and believes that people influenced by love are pathetic. After Tae Hee meets Shi Hyun, his vision of love begins to evolve. But how far?
With: WOO Do Hwan (Save Me), Joy [Red Velvet] (The Liar and His Lover), MOON Ga Young (Deserving of the Name), KIM Min Jae (While You Were Sleeping), SHIN Sung Woo, JEON Mi, KIM Seo Hyung, JUNG Ha Dam, MOON Hee Kyung, HWANG Jung Min…
This is one of the dramas that ignited the web when it was announced, thanks to the presence of the beautiful dark WOO Do Hwan! Taking up a classic of French literature did not frighten our Korean friends, on the contrary, they are rather good at dusting them off. Moreover, the original work has a beautiful track record of adaptation, more or less good or bad and the story has something to attract its audience. We at the editor, we highly recommend this romance-melodramatic that has not finished making followers!

And for good reason, we find ourselves wondering about our future and our partners in order to avoid loneliness. Did Han Seung Joo make the right choice by taking Oh Jak Doo as her husband? You'll find out by watching the K-drama My Husband Oh Jak-Doo !

Let's Hold Hands Tightly and Watch The Sunset
손 꼭 잡고, 지는 석양을 바라보자
Channel: MBC
Episodes: 32
Release period: March 21 to May 10, 2018
Nam Hyun Joo is married to his eldest from university, Kim Do Young, and they live a happy life. Do Young is an architect and was once considered a genius in his field.

We continue our path on the same main themes (romance, melodrama) as before. This plot sounds in the rather tarabiscoté genre, with the omnipresent death around our four protagonists. However, if the scenario is well done and holds up, we are not immune to a few tears. Notice to fans of the genre, this drama could be a little pearl!

For the rest of our releases, we will not really change register, since we are now entitled to a comedy, mixing fantasy and love feelings. However, the presence of magic and mystery around this man taking himself for cupid leaves us very curious. As a result, we may well end up enjoying this drama which, being classic, also has its share of originality. And then… It's hard to resist the handsome and talented LEE Jong Hyun, isn't it girls?

With: JEON Hye Bin (Falsify), AHN Woo Yeon (Good Witch), BAE Jung Bok, PARK Ya Sung , KIM so Hwan , HAN Kyu Won , SONG Yoo Hyun.
Here is a small series in short and unpretentious format, which, in the form of a web-series, takes us into the field of romantic comedy. However, the pitch intrigues us and in particular, this woman who rules her life with numbers. As a result, the concept could stand out from other K-dramas this month. Whether you adhere to this particular way of living or not, we advise you to take a look, see both!

Release period: March 3 to May 5, 2018

We have been saying it since the beginning, this month of March is part of a classic register and very appreciated by most playwrights. However, where the series will be able to take off, it is with this concept of swapped binoculars. And as always, it is one and the same actress who will play both roles and show us the extent of her talent. Not to mention that on top of that, we risk traveling vicariously with our stewardess and her co-pilot!

Now it's time to discover a comedy that makes us think a little. And where the scam will be the engine, carried by this dear JANG Geun Suk, who had disappeared from the small screen.

And it's time to wrap up our article by returning to the original themes, which are family and romance. Thus, it is in the form of a drama slice of life, a woman and her Ahjussi (Korean word designating an older married man and which can also be translated as uncle) that we learn about the plot. However, it promises us a lot of interesting things, whether emotionally speaking or in the relationships between each other. A series to follow especially since the presence of IU was rare since 2016!
