4 Korean Dramas About First Impressions That Have Unexpected Plots

Kapanlagi.com - Love at first sight is often considered cliché, but not in the world of Korean dramas. This genre successfully packages the moment of the first eye contact into an emotional plot that makes the audience feel thrilled, cry, and laugh all at once.

Many Korean dramas not only showcase instant love from the first meeting but also develop their stories into complex, relatable conflicts. The main characters often come from different backgrounds, with secrets and goals that make their relationships challenging.

This article will discuss four of the most iconic Korean dramas that depict love at first sight. From a CEO who falls in love with an employee, a high school student wanting to change fate in a comic world, to a couple who can't forget their meeting in a city full of memories.

1. BUSINESS PROPOSAL

Shin Ha-Ri (Kim Se-Jeong) agrees to substitute for her friend on a blind date, not knowing that the man in front of her is her boss. Kang Tae-Moo (Ahn Hyo-Seop), a handsome CEO, is immediately captivated from their first meeting.

Although Ha-Ri tries to act annoying to be rejected, the shocked expression upon seeing her date marks the beginning of a complicated relationship. Kang Tae-Moo even decides to marry whoever shows up on the blind date, and that person is Shin Ha-Ri.

2. EXTRAORDINARY YOU
