Hey there!
Relate to this: You read a book, a favorite of yours. You can imagine how the characters look and can hear their voices too. Years later, this book is turned into a film... You would be a bit excited come on! Watching the protagonist come in to life would be such an experience.
Maybe it was when Harry Potter was decided to be adapted into a movie or maybe Twilight? Or maybe it is not books but rather comics? Anime is the legend. Watching the characters move about rather than you playing with them.
In Korea, Manga or comic book is referred to as Webtoon. My first Webtoon was, "Cheese in the Trap" due to its Korean drama adaption. I love the drama despite its odds and can re-watch it. The Webtoon consists of four seasons thus I completed the drama before the webtoon ๐
When I re-watched it though, 2 weeks ago, I sensed something different. I loved the fact that I could relate and anticipate the drama since I read the webtoon.
So, here are four Korean dramas based on a webtoon:
Itaewon Class | ์ดํ์ ํด๋ผ์ฐ
An ex-con, Park Sae Ro Yi (Park Seo-Joon) and his friends fight to make their ambitious dreams for their street bar a reality.
