Kdramas are a complete package. Pick any kdrama and it will be cooked up of love, mystery, and thrill in the right amount. Furthermore, most kdramas are just a season long, and the standard number of episodes is sixteen. So over the course of sixteen episodes, you are presented with a well-fletched story. The creators have mastered the art of giving just the right amount of information to keep us guessing what will happen next.

While sometimes it is obvious how the series is going to end, there are some that we just cannot figure out. Not to mention how there are times that you start watching thinking it’s all fluff, and they hit you with a beloved character’s death in between (Cough! cough!! Vincenzo!) Therefore we have compiled a list of happy-ending Kdramas so that you stay smiling from the start to the end.
