hi! i just finished hi, bye mama! and that show broke me! i literally had a breakdown every other episode! 😭😭so i was wondering if you could recommend me some lighthearted dramas! and if it isnt too hard maybe some happy dramas about marriage? lol thanks!
Oh I’m so sorry anon! You totally need a pick me up drama!
This list is a bit random, but whenever I’m super destroyed by something, I’m looking for something specific to suit my fickle mood if that makes sense. Not all of these dramas are perfect, but they feel healing to me so I’m going for it! *sometimes I just make a weird list :P
Light Hearted Dramas to recover from Hi Bye Mama:
Father Is Strange: This is a 45 episode drama. I know, I know - It’s long. But trust me you’ll love it! It’s a family drama centered around three daughters and their parents. It’s super cute and has a lot of really lovely family moments and so many romantic ships (it’s long so they have to have at least a FEW couples :). It’s the only long drama I’ve ever finished and it’d be a great one to watch after Hi Bye Mama.
Hospital Playlist: Sometimes after something dramatic, you don’t need the opposite. Sometimes you just need something evenly paced, well done and a bit upbeat. I’m in the middle of watching this show and love it. It’s a workplace drama (I hate medical dramas but like this one) centered around five friends. Great characters, heartfelt and funny moments, and a really awesome script.
Oh My Ghostess: An adorable rom com with a ghost! I figure if you just watched a tragedy with a ghost, why not repair your heart with a really cute ghost romance? A sassy ghost possesses a quiet and introverted chef’s assistant and mishaps ensue (plus the romance. don’t forget about the romance).
Her Private Life: A museum curator who is hiding her fangirl obsession of an idol, gets a new boss (who is VERY hot ok?) Anyways, it’s light, funny and the chemistry is off the charts. Plus nothing really happens once they get together relationship wise - I don’t even think there’s a fake breakup so it’s a really easy light watch.
Legend of the Blue Sea: Think Splash but with a k-drama twist. A mermaid who finds herself on land gets entangled in the life of a con artist and falls in love with him. I mean, it’s Lee Min Ho and Jun Ji Hyun (who makes the best mermaid!) It’s a cute romance fantasy.
Hyori’s Bed and Breakfast: I know it’s not a drama, but it’s SO healing. If you haven’t watched this reality tv show about Idol Hyori and her husband living on JeJu island with their 5 dogs and the fatest kitty you’ve ever seen, you must! It’s so relaxing and wholesome. 
Fight My Way: Yes, this slice of life drama is literally on every list I make! I’m sure all of my followers have seen it by now but just in case you haven’t...You must! It’s got great friendships, a strong female lead, great romance, and it’s just the best!
I hope one of these sticks out as a drama you’d like!
