Well this is going to be interesting to see which drama wins, whether it’s quality or motivated by fan mobilization to get out the vote. tvN is partnering with TVing to run a vote (click here) for the audiences’ favorite K-drama in the network’s 15 year span. Running down the list there are SOOOOOO MANY entertaining and well made dramas, and the best ones are both! Recent popular hits like Vincenzo and Crash Landing on You are there, as are critically acclaimed dramas including Signal, Misaeng, My Ahjusshi, and Secret Forest, family faves with Answer Me 1988 and Hospital Playlist, not to mention buzzy dramas during its airing like Goblin, Memories of Alhambra, Cheese in the Trap, and Encounter. Go shill for your fave and let’s see which drama wins the popular vote! On a side note, one drama conspicuously missing from the nominee list is Mr. Queen (Queen Cheorin) which got higher ratings than most of the dramas on the list.

Pingback: tvN Holds Vote on Favorite Network K-drama for its 15th Anniversary Including Hits Vincenzo, Crash Landing on You, Misaeng, Goblin, Answer Me 1988 and Many More Nominees - Kpopnchill - All About K-pop News
tvN has so many of my all- time favourite dramas I don’t even know how to choose.
Misaeng and Reply 1988 will go up there as both being written, directwd and acted well and a story with so much emotions in them. In that it evokes so much empathetic and nostalgic feel from me as a viewer. Rather than being just entertainment. They were memorable.
I love Vincenzo to death but I hope the older dramas like Reply 1997/88 and Misaeng get a lot of voter love too. They’re a huge part of putting tvn on the map and building it up to no longer being looked down on for being a cable channel.
I’ve watched so many drama from tvn. So hard to choose. But Nine and Signal surely among my most favorites.
TVN is the HBO of SKorea. So much quality output.
Well they had melting me softy haha
tvn is stil shying away about mr. queen after milking the hell of it because the joseon exorcist. unfortunately
S0 -please I want to vote but can’t read hangul. Can somebody tell me how to cast mine for My Ahjusshi which rocked my kdrama world?
Me too. My Ahjusshi hands down although I equally love Reply 1988, Misaeng, Forest of Secrets, and HP.
I cant choose. I love many Tvn dramas… They produced great dramas every single year!!! HP, Mr. Sunshine, Secret Forest, Signal, IOTBNO, Reply series, Prison Playbook, Misaeng, etc… How can i choose???
Reply 1988 and CLOY are the best TVN outputs. Although several others come close.
Can’t believe they are ignoring Mr Queen. Such a shame for a highly rated drama that many worked so hard on.
I really loved Reply 1988.It connects at various levels, there is something for every generation in reply 1988. The writing is so amazing it’s so real relatable and can stand the test of time.This drama truly transcends time.
where is mr. queen?
Signal, Hospital Playlist and Reply 1988 for me
I dont know Korean so I can not vote even though I clicked on the series I liked the most but again it says something else after and I have no idea what is says.
My vote is between Signal and Misaeng.
Vincenzo, CLOY, Signal for me. Crossing out IONTBO bc I can’t look at it the same way now.
Why?
Signal, Prison Playbook and Mouse (coz I really like Lee Seung Gi) for me!
English please, after 17 years, still my heart goes to MISAENG.
Same if I really have to choose one its MISAENG for me.
Vincenzo tops the list for me!
My vote goes to Crash Landing On You. I have watched a lot of KDramas and love so many but none touched my life like CLOY.
Me too., watched many dramas but CLOY is too good and left such a deep impression..
MR SUNSHINE, THE DEVIL JUDGE, CLOY, ARE THE BESTES CREATION OF TVN NETWORK
It’s hard to choose, there are different types of drama.
Sageuks : The Crowned Clown and Mr Sunshine
Police : Secret of Forest
Fantasy : Signal
Slice of Life : Prison Playbook
I don’t get it why Mr Queen is snubbed putting useless movies there…that’s not a fair vote….We just want you to know international community will support it regardless of you snubbing it.
Mr Sunshine and Arthdal Chronicles are definitely at the top of the chain. Doesn’t get better than these. Special mention to Reply 1988 as well!
My Ahjusshi’s #1. Obviously. There’s no competition.
My Ajusshi. That’s a masterpiece. Nothing else come close.
I LOVED My Mister but my issue is that it doesn’t have the re-watch factor like my other faves (Reply 1988, Prison Playbook, Hospital Playbook, CLOY). Otherwise I would put it at #1.
Hospital Playlist* lol
I disagree with My Mister not having rewatch factor lol. I can’t count how many times my husband and I watched it, and it makes us cry every single time.
My lone vote goes to Vincenzo. That drama was pure entertainment cr@ck. I was going mad in lockdown and it was my lifeline to sanity.
This is hard. Misaeng, Reply 1988, and My Ahjusshi, for sure, but don’t make me choose which one.
Same if I really have to choose one its MISAENG for me.
The king eternal monarch
That flop was aired on SBS, not tvN. This is about tvN dramas, dumbass.
It was a SBS drama.
Come on you cannot forget THE DEVIL JUDGE guys it’s the best of all for me.
Yeah THE DEVIL JUDGE it’s the best of all my vote goes to that show .
You guys forget THE DEVIL JUDGE damn it’s one of the kind?..
Signal, my mister and misaeng are unrivalled. Arthdal chronicles was also such an enjoyable watch for me, too bad it ended with a cliffhanger.
If only Arthdal Chronicles had a complete story arc…./sigh. It’s a shame because the concept was so interesting and handled very differently from your typical sageuk or kdrama fantasy, damn Netflix for trying to make it into an American drama format with seasons “based on audience response” (which was “???” because of the screwed-up pacing caused by this chasing after seasons without communicating that clearly to viewers. I don’t watch Korean dramas to get half a drama!)
I recently watched THE DEVIL JUDGE by TVN it is unique and I like it
Crash Landing for reigniting the recent Korean wave! It’s such a comfort drama I can just throw it on anytime and laugh at the ducklings antics, swoon over Captain Ri, and cheer on Seri against her crappy family. Every character is well written and well cast. Its funny and heartbreaking from beginning end. And the cinematography is stunning. I saw that so many people are visiting the filming locations in Switzerland. I would love to visit one day too.
Runner up is My Mister for great acting and storytelling. A bunch of characters that are hurting and consequently hurt others. I’m glad it didn’t turn into a romance at the end. I think it would have cheapened it.
melting me softly of hi chang wook and his unknown Fl was the best. loled. er er…..it made JI chang wook an A lister with its rating of 20%…..ooopppps
My Mister, Signal, and Misaeng quality-wise are THE trinity from tvN. Storytelling, directing, music, ensemble performance, plot—pitch-perfect. I can’t find fault in any of them.
for me it’s Reply 1997, Misaeng, Secret Forest, My Ajusshi and Vincenzo in my top 5, tvn has some class dramas that really were nothing like what was on network at the time.
Funny to think it’s been only 3 years since What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim became the first cable drama to outperform weekday network dramas in the same time slot.
START UP I LOVE THE CHEMISTRY THEIR TALENTED IDOL!?
Yes! Start-up will forever be my favourite drama!
So difficult to choose! My Ahjussi wins by a hair’s width over the Reply series, Signal, Misaeng, Hospital Playlist, Oh My Ghost and Nine. Nine being the show that really won my adoration for Kdrama. These shows are so good, I could start re-watching them just now.
Signal , Mr Sunshine , Hospital Playlist
My mister, no doubt, it has played a significant part in my life. No need for romance, kissing, just the interaction and good deed between human make me believe in humanity.
The best of the best
Goblin, Tail of the nine tail fox .. ..????
I dare say Reply 1988, My Mister, and Signal are Top 3 dramas not just for tvN but in general. That’s some quality writing, directing, and acting right there.
Just realize that most of my fave dramas were from TvN. Signal, Misaeng, My Ahjusshi, and Reply 1988 are the most notable for me. And was Because Its My First Life (Lee Min Ki-Jung So Min pair) was from TvN too right? I love it too, the OSTs are still lingering till now.
