The only correct answer for me is Squid Game because its the Korean Drama people talked about during the Pandemic. The one that the whole world becomes crazy about.

I appreciated It's Okay Not to Be Okay for its focus on mental health. It resonated with my experiences and made me feel less alone. The way it portrayed those struggles was refreshing!. I have to say It's Okay Not to Be Okay really spoke to me. The character development was so relatable! I loved how they showed that it’s okay to struggle and that seeking help is a sign of strength. The blend of dark themes with moments of hope and romance really struck a chord with me. It’s refreshing to see a show that tackles mental health in such a nuanced way, and it made me feel like I wasn’t alone in my feelings.

Vincenzo is the best! The plot twists were insane, and I loved how the main character handled everything. His charm and wit made it so entertaining to watch. It’s rare to find a show that combines humor with high-stakes drama, and this one nailed it. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time, and I honestly couldn’t stop watching. I loved how it also tackled themes of justice and corruption. I’ve already rewatched it twice since it finished!

K-dramas really helped me cope during the pandemic! Vincenzo was such a fun escape, and I loved the quirky characters. The humor mixed with serious moments made it such a balanced watch. I found myself laughing out loud at the clever dialogue while also getting invested in the characters' stories. It was exactly what I needed to brighten my days during those long months. I’d recommend it to anyone looking for something entertaining with a bit of depth!

Of course, there was and still is a lot of buzz about Squid Game.

But in addition to a show about a game of survival, people always like a good love story. A lot of babies were born during the pandemic. LOL.

Also, because of the pandemic a lot of people had mental health problems. So this series resonates with many people.

Lastly, ever since The Godfather, folks have enjoyed shows about gangsters.
