Best Korean Web Dramas Of 2017

Posted on by

Greetings Dramatics! It’s your favorite Drama Queen back again with some web dramas that have been fan favorites in 2017. In case you are new to K-Dramas, a web drama is a drama that is viewed on the internet, hence the name web drama. Usually these dramas are have a few episodes with the watch time being anywhere between 8-15 minutes per episode. These dramas oftentimes cast K-Pop idols which highlights their acting skills. Web dramas are great if you are in between dramas, waiting for a new drama to start, or if you want to watch something quick. Some viewers don’t enjoy web dramas as much because the plot can often feel rushed, and the drama really doesn’t give the characters and story a chance to develop fully because of the length. Web dramas are not that popular so I wanted to highlight a few that I think deserve a watch. Without further adieu, here are some of the Best Web Dramas Of 2017!

The stars of Man-Hole: Feels So Good are: JYJ’s Kim Jae Joong as Bong Pil, UEE as Kang Soo Jin, Jung Hye Sung as Jin Seok, and B1A4’s Baro as Jo Suk Tae. Let’s learn a bit more about our characters.

He has a one-sided crush on his long-time best friend named  Kang Soo Jin, so when she announces that she will be getting married soon he feels like the world has fallen apart. Fortunately, he realizes that the manhole functions as a portal to the past,  so he can use it to stop the wedding from happening. The caption on his porter accurately reveals his intention: “You think you can leave me alone and get married to another guy?”
