Summer is coming up! This time of the year is usually synonymous with editing one’s closet contents, and rotating beach and summer wear to have front and center premier real estate in those drawers and cabinets for ease of access and use. The closet is a vital part of life. One look at it, and you feel as though you’ve seen a playback reel of your personal story. After all, so many landmark moments are celebrated with key outfits and accessories.




How many K-Dramas have we seen with heroines who power dress, and whose closets we’ve dissected for proof of the fact that the closet plays a vital supporting role to women who dress well. Need inspiration? Here are some of the most beautiful closets we’ve seen in K-Dramas. The ladies who use them have demanding careers and dramatic back stories to boot. As such, the closets many consider a dream are to them, a reality. Take a look at the gallery below:


Han Se-gye in True Beauty (JTBC, 2018) - The Beauty Inside tells the story of an actress, Han Se-Gye who has a rather special condition where her body takes on the physical characteristics of another.
