Alrighty, we’re in November already and 2023 will soon be in the rearview mirror. There will be plenty of time for Best Of lists and posts but Joynews got a kick start by polling 200 plus entertainment industry folks including PDs, agencies, and production heads for their vote for the Best K-drama of 2023. The experts pick came in with The Glory on top with 73 votes followed close by Moving with 64 votes. I actually agree with this choice but Moving made me happier to watch might switch the order for sheer happiness value alone. Third place was a tie at 11 votes between Reborn Rich and Revenant, and it’s a testament to how much people HATED the ending of Reborn Rich for it to fall that low. Next is 6 votes for Mask Girl and Bad Mom, and finally The Interest of Love, Agency, King the Land, Doctor Cha, and Crash Course in Romance tie with 4 votes. I’m just happy I watched most of these dramas already haha.
