kdramas i recommend to friends who have never watched them

1. Está bien no estar bien
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
on netflix
romance/darker than some of the other ones on this list. FL's outfits are fantastic and she's kind of an icon (if not a little crazy). has cool animation and an interesting story that brings attention to mental health issues. visually a super pretty kdrama. OST is great.

2. Hotel del Luna

fascinating plot, FL is edgy, more humour than I originally expected hidden in it.
