The Chasing Albert K-Drama Guide 

Korean film, Parasite, was released in October 2019 and was incredibly successful. It was the first ever foreign language film to win best picture at the Oscars. Did you watch it?  

Netflix blockbuster, Squid Game, was the first non-English show on the streaming platform to top global viewing and break all previous records. Did you watch that? 

Since then, Korean movies and television shows have exploded with Netflix having a dedicated Genre and along with Disney +, creating exclusive content to feed the huge demand for K-Dramas.  

Hallyu, the Korean Wave, is something two of the Chasing Albert team are riding obsessively. Marie El Daghl, Managing Director and Alex McGee, Graphic Designer may have 20 years between them but they share a love for all things Korean Culture.  

A gift from us to you 

Presenting the Chasing Albert Ultimate K-Drama Guide with Marie and Alex.  

Marie is mostly into Rom Coms or Dramas where people eventually touch each other romantically. Alex is mostly into Fantasy and Crime or anything where people eventually touch each other violently. So, you’ll get a good range of options – but all will be A-Grade K-dramas to get you started. 

The list covers a wide range of Genres – there has to be something there you’re ready and willing to unwrap! With plenty of down time over the festive season (hopefully), it’s the perfect opportunity to watch a season or two of a K-Drama with the gentle guidance of your favourite marketing team (hopefully).
