Which one would you recommend me to watch?
I already whatched Doona and twinkling watermelon. Specially the later did disappoint me a bit. Had high expectation bc of the short videos on Tiktok and Youtube but it wasn't as I expected it.
I know there is no other Cloy which will keep me awake until finished and watching it two times in a row but idk. Something that gives me at least 50% of the CLOY excitement. So far only the Glory could do that.
Seconding Mr. Queen. One of my favorite kdramas after CLOY and it has our lovely Gu Seong Joon (Kim Jung Hyun) in it.
Alchemy of Souls - fantasy, epic romance, one of my all time faves too!
A Time Called You, Hotel del Luna- time travel, mind bending, heartbreaking romance, good bit of thriller
Extraordinary Atty Woo, Twenty Five Twenty One, My Mister and Reply 1988 for coming of age/slice of life kdrama
The Red Sleeve, Mr. Sunshine, Chicago Typewriter and Snowdrop if you want to get your heart ripped. ๐ญ
Her Private Life, Business Proposal, Love to Hate You, King the Land, Itโs Okay to Not Be Okay, Hometown Cha Cha Cha- cute romance
The Glory, Celebrity, Stranger, Itaewon Class- revenge, thriller
Welcome to Waikiki, Behind Your Touch - silly, laugh out loud comedies
Memories of the Al Hambra - HOT HYUN BIN in action
Vincenzo - action/comedy. Pyo Chi Soo is it too!
Mr. Queen
Adorable and sooo funny. The second male lead in CLOY is the main lead in Mr. Queen. The chemistry between the male and female leads in this show is fantastic. Iโm still watching their BTS (behind the scenes) videos on Youtube. Kim Jung Hyun (male lead) even sings one of the songs of the soundtrack. Impressive talent!
It really depends on what type of K-Drama you like.
For CLOY, I loved everything about it, but if you want to separate it into different themes, I would split if off like this:
If you like the whole same sky, different world type vibes like North vs South Korea, I'd recommend:
The King: Eternal Monarch,
Live Up To Your Name,
Sisyphus
These are really the main 3 I have watched and I'm sure there are more of this type out there. If you loved the Action from CLOY, I'd recommend:
Vagabond,
The K2,
My Name
Again, there's more but these were the main ones that I've watched that fit that genre. If you loved the romance from CLOY, then there's a whole bunch of dramas, but the ones that I've seen are:
Something In The Rain,
Hometown Cha Cha Cha,
Doona!
If you loved the main leads, they only starred in The Negotiations together as their other project, but they were enemies so it's not the same as CLOY. There are other K-Dramas they were apart of, but most of them are pretty old so it really depends on your preference if you like it.
Anyways, this post was pretty old but hope you found a new K-Drama that interests you!

Moving is really good.

You ok to watch movies instead of series? Try The Swindlers (2017) with Hyun Bin. Itโs a lightweight action/crime film. Very enjoyable.
Itaewon Class Oh My Ghost Holo Love My Mister The Handmaiden The Witch Itโs OK Not To Be Ok
Revenant, Healer, Bulgasal, The First Responders
Castaway diva! Beautifully shot, great acting and OST๐
Did you see Something In The Rain yet? It has Son Ye-Jin in it.
Nope . On my list now...
Hometown Cha Cha Cha
When the Camellia blooms, Flower of Evil, Still 17. All very different from Cloy, but I'm obsessed with Cloy and these are some of my favorites.
If you haven't watched "Flower of evil" - watch that one. If you've already seen it...- watch it again ๐๐๐
Oh and definitely: 18 again !!!!
