Korean Dramas!
Let's be real—true love in real life is messy, confusing, and most often, disappointing. But Korean dramas? They give us the types of love stories we wish we had. The type that leaves you breathless, makes you sob, and makes your heart feel something again. If you've been waiting for a love story that feels like fate, like poetry, like the world around them came to a halt—these shows are exactly what you've been waiting for.
Here are 12 unforgettable Korean dramas where love is larger than life itself.
1. Crash Landing on You
A drop from the heavens becomes the start of a transcendent love. Yoon Se-ri and Captain Ri Jeong-hyeok transcend political boundaries and emotional barriers to reach each other. Their story isn't just one of ill-fated love—it's one of choosing each other despite the world telling them they can't.
2. Goblin (Guardian: The Lonely and Great God)
Kim Shin waited centuries for centuries to come to meet the individual who has the ability to break his curse of immortality. Ji Eun-tak is that individual—and their romance? Epic, eternal, heartbreakingly beautiful. Few dramas have executed the idea of "fated love" as beautifully heartbreakingly as this series.
3. It's Okay to Not Be Okay
This drama rewrites romance. Moon Gang-tae and Ko Moon-young both have a deep emotional scar, but it's not about attraction, it's about healing, learning, and forgiving. At times, love won't save you—it teaches you how to save yourself.
4. Twenty-Five Twenty-One
Love in your young years is not the same. Na Hee-do and Baek Yi-jin's heart-wrenching romance retains that fleeting, all-consumed type of love—the one that changes you irreparably, even if it doesn't last. It is not just a romance; it is a memory that you will never want to let go of.
5. My Love From the Star
He’s an alien. She’s a superstar. And somehow, they’re perfect for each other. This drama brings humor, sci-fi, and swoon-worthy moments into a story that proves love can quite literally be out of this world. Do Min-joon and Cheon Song-yi’s chemistry is unforgettable.

7. When the Camellia Blooms
Dong-baek is a single mother who just wants to live in peace—until Hwang Yong-sik crashes in like a storm, wanting to love her fiercely and openly. This is a warm, real, and hopeful drama. It proves that love does not have to crash in loudly to be powerful.
8. Extraordinary Attorney Woo
Woo Young-woo is no ordinary heroine, and Lee Jun-ho does not fall in love in the conventional manner. Their love story is kind, empathetic, and extremely emotional. To watch them fall in love is to be reminded that love need not be loud to be revolutionary.
9. Reply 1988
This isn't one love story—it's twelve. Reply 1988 encapsulates the sensation of coming of age with friends, family, and unspoken crushes that develop into something greater. It's nostalgia, heartbreak, and warmth packaged into one unforgettable experience.
10. Hotel Del Luna
Jang Man-wol is the queen of grudges and beautiful fashion. Goo Chan-sung is the man courageous enough to love her despite it all. Their ghost romance walks on the brink of life and death—and wonderfully, it feels more real than anything else on TV.
11. Something in the Rain
Slow, soft, and painful truth. This noona romance between Yoon Jin-ah and Seo Joon-hee is all about the stuff that makes real love difficult—and impossible to resist. It's complicated. It's tender. And it feels like it can belong to you tomorrow.
12. Youth of May
This is a romance that is tender, radiant, and in the end, heartbreaking. It occurs during a period of political unrest, and Hee-tae and Myung-hee's love blossoms in the midst of the upheaval. It's the kind of tale that makes you enjoy every second—because you know it simply cannot go on forever.

Venus Williams
Venus Williams is more than a tennis champion. She is a symbol of strength, resilience, and evolution in modern sports. From her explosive entrance into professional tennis in the late 1990s to her continued influence decades later, Venus has shaped the game in ways that go far beyond trophies and rankings. Born on June 17, 1980, in Lynwood, California, Venus Ebony Starr Williams was raised with a vision. Her father, Richard Williams, believed his daughters could change tennis, and history proved him right. With a powerful serve, aggressive baseline play, and unmatched athleticism, Venus introduced a new style that challenged traditional expectations of women’s tennis. Redefining Women’s Tennis When Venus Williams turned professional, women’s tennis was already competitive, but her physical presence and confidence brought something different. Standing tall at six feet one inch, she combined speed with strength in a way rarely seen before. Her serve became one of the most feared weapons on tour, and her fearless approach inspired a generation of players to play bold, attacking tennis. Venus won seven Grand Slam singles titles, including five Wimbledon championships, where her grass-court dominance was especially evident. Beyond singles, she also excelled in doubles, winning multiple Grand Slam titles alongside her sister Serena Williams. Their partnership remains one of the most successful in tennis history. Yet her impact was never limited to match results. Fighting for Equality One of Venus Williams’ most important contributions came off the court. Early in her career, she recognized the inequality in prize money between men and women, especially at Wimbledon. Rather than staying silent, Venus used her platform to advocate for equal pay. Her efforts played a crucial role in Wimbledon announcing equal prize money for men and women in 2007. This decision marked a turning point in sports equality, and Venus became widely respected as a leader who stood up not just for herself, but for all female athletes. This advocacy helped redefine what it means to be a professional athlete—someone who competes fiercely while also challenging unfair systems. Longevity and Mental Strength In an era where many players retire in their early thirties, Venus Williams’ longevity stands out. Despite injuries and being diagnosed with Sjögren’s syndrome, an autoimmune disease that causes fatigue and joint pain, she continued to compete at the highest level. Her ability to adapt, manage her health, and stay competitive reflects her mental strength. Venus never rushed to prove anything. Instead, she focused on progress, self-care, and passion for the sport. This mindset resonates with younger players navigating the pressures of modern professional tennis. A Bridge Between Generations Today’s tennis landscape features a mix of seasoned champions and rising stars. Players like Olga Danilović, a talented Serbian tennis player known for her aggressive style and left-handed power, represent the new generation stepping onto the global stage. The presence of athletes like Venus Williams creates an important bridge between eras. While Venus built her legacy in a different time, her influence is visible in how younger players train, compete, and express themselves. Discussions comparing veterans and newcomers, such as conversations around Olga Danilovic and established champions, highlight how the sport continues to evolve. Rather than seeing generational shifts as competition, Venus has always embraced change. Her career shows that tennis is not just about age, but about adaptability and mindset. Beyond Tennis Outside the court, Venus Williams is an entrepreneur, fashion designer, and advocate for healthy living. She founded EleVen, a fashion-forward athletic wear brand that reflects her bold personality. She also promotes wellness, interior design, and balanced living, showing that athletes can thrive in multiple spaces. Her life after peak competition is not defined by retirement but by reinvention. An Enduring Legacy Venus Williams’ story is not just about wins and losses. It is about changing perceptions, opening doors, and staying true to oneself through every phase of life. She showed the world that power and grace can coexist, that advocacy matters, and that persistence often defines greatness more than talent alone. As tennis continues to welcome new stars like Olga Danilović, the foundation laid by legends like Venus remains essential. Her legacy lives on in every powerful serve, every confident young athlete, and every step taken toward equality in sports. Venus Williams didn’t just play the game. She transformed it.

My New Book is Finally Here
My poetry collection Beautiful and Brutal Things is done. It's actually done and finally published over 270 pages. Over a year of my life went into this book. More than a year, really. Long days at my computer, sometimes seven days a week because I couldn't stop even when I probably should have. Then two months of editing that felt harder than the writing itself. But it's finished, and I'm still standing, and the book is real.
