The question K-Drama fans often ask themselves whenever they finish watching a series is "what's next?" Well, really, it's an endless cycle of binge-watching.
The fact that there's an unimaginably long list of K-Dramas is a double-edged sword. On one hand, that means you'll never run out of options. But on the other hand, that also makes the selection process pretty tough—yes, there's some sort of process that goes on with that.
If you're only beginning to collect K-Dramas, here are some pro tips. If you found a series that really resonated with you, let's say something like It's Okay to Not be Okay (IOTNBO), take note of the genre and search for similar titles under that. Or, you may also check the filmography of the cast members of the particular series you liked and see what could appeal to your taste from there.
It's been more than two weeks since IOTNBO ended, and we know you already miss this amazing cast as much as we do. So, here's a list of their other K-Dramas that you might want to check out, while you're waiting for the next big thing in K-Dramaland.

Kim Soo-Hyun
If you loved seeing Kim Soo-hyun as this shy type, quiet guy, like Moon Gang-tae, you'll most likely love him in "My Love from the Star" (where he plays the role of a good-looking alien who lands on earth) and "The Producers" (where his character is a rookie producer-director).

Seo Ye-Ji
If you loved the mysterious appeal of her character, Ko Mun-yeong, who is dealing with heartbreak from family issues, then you'd appreciate her in thriller-mystery "Save Me." There, she solves the mystery surrounding a dubious religious cult that has her and her family trapped.

Park Jin-Joo
As Yoo Seung-jae, Park Jin-joo played the role of an art director at the publishing company behind Ko Mun-yeong's books.

His character in IOTNBO may be minor but it was memorable; he played the role of a patient at the OK Psychiatric Hospital who comes from a rich family. He has a long list of TV shows, but among his more recent ones is the 2019 comedy family drama "Never Twice," wherein his starring role is similarly wealthy, the heir of a five-star hotel.
