Everybody loves a good K-Drama that has you sitting on the edge of your seat to see what happens next. What better way to do that than adding slow-burn K-Dramas to your watchlist?
Slow-burn K-Dramas are characterized by a sense of yearning or angst that underlies a love line. In other words, it's when the lead characters' love line feels like it's playing out super slowly either because they are late to realize their feelings or there are other obstacles in their way. Their love seems to have a slower build-up than the average K-Drama romance.
For the viewer looking to watch more dramas like this, we've compiled a watchlist of slow-burn K-Dramas to melt your heart and mellow your watchlist.
Note: This list is not a ranking. At the end of the article, there's a poll where you can vote for your favorite slow-burn K-Drama on your watchlist. However, no results article will be published as the poll will remain open.ย

1. "My Liberation Notes"
JTBC
Cast: Lee MinKi, Kim JiWon, Son SukKu, EL, and more.
Summary: โMy Liberation Notesโ, set in Sanpo Village, depicts the lonely life of three unbearably rustic siblings and the mysterious man who lives in their neighborhood.
Watch Because: If there was a K-Drama dictionary, "My Liberation Notes" would be in the dictionary next to 'slow-burn K-Drama'. Every single episode is filled with yearning in every sense of the word and in every regard of the story. The story with its relatability has a huge payoff for the slowness of the burn and is definitely worth it. This K-Drama is a drama that will give you a sense of assurance.
