[Beginner Korean Podcast] Why Do We Love K-Dramas? | Cozy Storytime in Korean Ep.4

Growing up in Korea, I had watched so many dramas. Now in America, I watch Korean dramas with my husband. These relatable, light-hearted, sometimes mind-bending Korean dramas have been a big part of our memories together. What are your favorite dramas? How did they make you feel? I have a feeling that we will have a lot to share through this topic! 🤗

I'm using the video as a speaking practise ( shadowing ) and then I make flashcards with the whole sentences, I recommend this method to everyone who wants to use the whole potential of the podcast! Thank you so much, I'm about to watch more of your content

[@storytimeinkorean]

That's an excellent way to use the podcast to learn, wonderful idea! Definitely check out Trancy (in the description) it has a lot of helpful learning techniques like dictating and sentence rebuilding and it's free. Thank you for enjoying the content ❤️ 비디오를 좋아해 주셔서 감사해요 ❤️ 열심히 공부하세요!! 😊

I think discovering K-dramas in the pandemic might actually have saved my life....I cried and laughed so much watching them. The creativity and acting are far better than anything in the UK/US...theyre much more detailed, realistic and show all sides of life. The first one I watched was Its ok not to be ok...cant remember how many Ive watched now. From K-dramas Ive found a new appreciation for Korean culture and have gone on to exolore it more, to try different foods, listen to Korean music and to try to learn the language. I wished Id discovered Korean culture sooner as I would have made it a bigger part of my son's life- I definitely think the world could learn alot from Korean culture.

[@BrianBusath]

Thank you for your videos. They are the right level of difficulty for me where i can feel accomplished that I know some words, but challenged to learn more. I also appreciate that you tell us about yourself and your experience. Much beginner content is not interesting, but this is. Thank you.

저도 한국 드라마가 좋아요 . 너무 좋아서 한국어를 배우기로 했어요. 지금은 아직 한국거를 잘 못하지만, 더 열심히 공부할게요. 요즘은 제가 'Castaway Diva' 가 보고있어요. 너무 재밌어요.

[@storytimeinkorean]

우아 정말요? 😍 한국어를 배워서 한국 드라마를 보면 드라마가 더 재밌을 거에요!! 🤩 저도 그 드라마 너무 보고싶어요!! 배우 박은빈 님이 나오니까 좋아요 💕 로맨스 드라마 좋아하세요? ‘미스터 선샤인’, ‘도깨비’, ‘사랑의 불시착’, ‘그 해 우리는’ 같은 드라마 혹시 보셨어요? 💜

[@aminadebba1094]

요즘은 " 넘버스 " 드라마를 보기 시작할 것 같아요~ 제일 좋아하는 드라마를: 마우스 입니다

[@storytimeinkorean]

오오 저는 마우스와 넘버스 둘 다 본 적이 없어요! 🤩 방금 찾아봤는데 너무 재밌을 것 같아요!! 꼭 기억할게요! 😊😊 저의 비디오를 봐주셔서 감사합니다! 🥰❤️❤️

[@ray.a124]

I'm really loving your podcasts, beside the fact that they can be greatly helpful to Korean learners from all the different levels beginner to advanced, they're also very calm and relaxing :) thank you so much for your hard work.. Interesting choice of topic, I've been watching K-dramas for more than 8 years now, I agree with all what you said, K-dramas have been a comfort space for me throughout the years, I think the reason why K-drama appeal to many people that much is due to the array of emotions it allow them to experience, a kind of experience which really hard to find anywhere else, everything from settings to dialogues to characters to soundtracks- which are usually filled with emotions. They make me see life from different lights, brighter lights "even the tragic ones", they're emotional and humane :) i can go on and on 😂 I have many favorite dramas but one of them is "my Mister" it portrays all the qualities I listed above, and the drama I've been watching lately is " twenty one twenty five " a wholesome drama and definitely added to my favorite list".

[@storytimeinkorean]

Thank you so much for saying that!! 🥺 it really means a lot to me ❤️ I’m so happy that you like my podcasts ❤️ And you’re absolutely right!! K-dramas let you just fully absorb the emotions of the characters by amplifying that part for the audience with soundtrack that works perfectly with the scenes! I have a playlist in Spotify that’s just a collection of my favorite soundtrack from dramas haha. My Mister is my husband’s favorite. We absolutely loved that show. It is really different than normal romance dramas. ‘Grown Ups’ by Sondia is in my list!!!! And we also watched Twenty one Twenty five, that show was so wholesome 🥺🥺 it had amazing actors too!! 정말 감사합니다!! 🥺❤️ 다음 팟캐스트도 기다려주세요! 💖

[@1_human.]

I really fell in love with " extraordinary you" !! BTW we need more videos like this ❤ stay safe !

[@storytimeinkorean]

Wooo! I haven’t watched that one, so I’ll have to check it out! Thank you for sharing your favorite drama! 🥰❤️❤️ and of course! Please stay tuned for new podcasts! In the meantime, feel free to check out my other ones 💕💕 이 팟캐스트를 들어주셔서 정말 감사합니다! 🥰❤️

I am super duper thankful for all the vdos you made! the canva really really really help me with learning and memorizing the words! thank you so soo soooo much

[@storytimeinkorean]

I’m so happy to hear you say that! ☺️ The Canva pdfs are a lot of fun to make and I know they can be helpful to everyone, so it’s a relief to hear you say that! Thank you so much for watching!! 💜🌸

[@ChrisJohnsonCJs-Kitchen]

These videos are wonderful. I really appreciate how clear the hangul font is, it's so much easier to attempt to read. It's interesting to see the hangul along with the English, it makes me realize how differently the sentences are structured between the two languages as I hear what you're saying and see where some of the words actually are in the English form. I have been watching a couple K-Dramas concurrently. I am watching Heartbeat and only a couple episodes are coming out weekly, so in between, I've been watching My First, First Love. I just finished it last night. I think the thing I love most about K-Dramas, in addition to everything you said, is they are wholesome. They remind me of US movies from the 50's and 60's. The characters take the time to build their relationship and are very clear about becoming a couple or not. It's like seeing a favorite book in film format, where you really get to enjoy the details. Another thing I really appreciate about K-Dramas is the quality of the filming and the soundtracks. The series The K2, for instance, felt more like watching a movie - the filming techniques and overall quality was just amazing. I'll be looking forward to more stories, I think they will be very helpful to me in learning Hangul. 담사함니다

[@storytimeinkorean]

Thank you so much for your comment! ❤️❤️ Yes!! Isn’t it so interesting how different the sentence structures are in between English and Korean? I’m so glad Hangul was easy to read for you! And I can’t agree with you more, k-dramas are wholesome. I do think Korean shows focus more on the various ‘emotions’ of each character than other dramas, which makes it more personal, relatable, touching, and wholesome! And you’re right, the filming quality is great! Even for the ones with a lot of CGI, the scenes are really clean and realistic. I haven’t watched K-2, but I’m sure the quality was satisfying! Thank you so much again for sharing your experiences and thoughts, I really appreciate it! Stay tuned for more videos where we can share our memories again! 😊💗 정말 감사합니다, 다음에 또 이야기해요! 💗

현재 깅더랜드라는 드라마를 보고 있어요. 로맨스 이야기예요. 그리고 너무 웃겨~~ 2화 만 남아서 슬퍼 (is my grammar okay ? and thank you for starting this channel, it's so much fun to listen to~)

[@storytimeinkorean]

Yay!! Thank you so much for sharing what you’re watching! 😊 정말 감사합니다! 저는 킹더랜드를 아직 안 봤어요. 하지만 곧 보고싶어요!! ㅎㅎ 저는 로맨스 이야기를 좋아해요! And yes the grammar was correct! It’s just that starting with the third sentence, you are not ending sentences with ’요‘, unlike the first two sentences. It would be great if you can be consistent with whatever level of formality you choose throughout the statement, you know? :)

[@hakieuanh1210]

제가 이번 영상 주제를 진짜 좋아해요. 한국어를 배우는 이유도 한국 드라마를 좋아하는 것이에요. 어려을 때부터 제가 처음 봤던 드라마는 대장금 드라마에요. 그때 엄마랑 저랑 저녁까지 기다겨서 이 영화를 본 기억이 있어요. 그다음에 제가 봤던 영화들은 유리 구두 드라마와 꽃보다 남자 드라마와 별에서 온 그대 드라마,…여러 번 반복해서 봤던 영화들이에요. 옛날에는 저는 한국 영화를 보려면 베트남 TV채널 방송국이 판권을 인수하는 것을 기다려야 해요. 오늘날에 영화를 보려면 넷플릭스를 켜면 볼 수 있어요. 오랜 기다리지 않고 언제든지 볼 수 있어요. 정말 편리하네요.

[@storytimeinkorean]

우와아 감사합니다!! ❤️❤️ 저도 대장금 드라마가 기억나요!! 제가 사는 곳 주변에 ‘대장금‘이라는 한국 식당이 있어요 ㅋㅋ 저도 꽃보다 남자, 별에서 온 그대를 다 봤어요. 매일 매일 기다렸어요. 아아, 옛날에는 저보다 더 오래 기다려야 했네요! 🥺 맞아요 오늘날엔 넷플릭스가 있어서 정말 편리해요! 그리고 재밌는 드라마와 영화가 정말 많아요 😆💗 드라마 ’파스타‘, ’제빵왕 김탁구‘, ’오 나의 귀신님‘, ’피노키오‘를 아세요? 이 드라마들도 정말 재밌었어요 ☺️

I think if you start translating some short videos from k dramas it will be soo great. Because when you want to start watch this dramas only with subtitles on your language you can't fully understand them because of some phrases etc. Just thoughts ❤

[@storytimeinkorean]

That's a great idea! I would love to do that and I have a great idea for incorporating variety shows, but with KZbin it's hard to not get the videos copyright striked (especially stuff from Korean companies), so I will do some research and see what will work. Thank you so much for the suggestion!! 💜
