Noona dramas
As someone with self-acclaimed title of noona dramas afficionado I present you one which I've enjoyed
-
1. Something in the Rain
Korean Drama - 2018, 16 episodes
For me one of most classic example of noona dramas. Frivolous Son Ye Jin dancing to 2NE1 'I am the best'
-
2. I Hear Your Voice
Korean Drama - 2013, 18 episodes
Timely classic with amazing pairing between Lee Bo Young and Lee Jong Suk
-
3. Human Disqualification
Korean Drama - 2021, 16 episodes
Noona romance is rather about two people with age difference finding their soulmates. Probably mostly overlooked by most drama viewers, but believe me its slow paced worth to watch drama

4. Chugakusei Nikki
Japanese Drama - 2018, 11 episodes
Another classic one this time from Japan with trope about student falling in love with his teacher
-
5. Encounter
Korean Drama - 2018, 16 episodes
-
6. I Like You, It's Okay
Chinese Drama - 2022, 30 episodes
Chinese adaptation of Something in the rain drama. From my perspective is a bit washed out with parents behaviour comparing to original, for some it might be a big plus for some a minus

7. Nothing But Love
Chinese Drama - 2023, 38 episodes
-
8. The Midnight Romance in Hagwon
Korean Drama - 2024, 16 episodes
From creator of Something in the rain. Theme of using academies is quite refreshing. Additionally it's a bit less dramatic from romance perspective comparing to other dramas from this director like Something in the rain or One Spring Night

9. Search: WWW
Korean Drama - 2019, 16 episodes
Noona romance is between both main and second leads, but to be honest the second leads were much more interesting for me.

10. The Rational Life
Chinese Drama - 2021, 35 episodes
Noona romance from China in office setting. My main caveout is that romance is really slow paced, even as someone who likes slow paced drama in this case it took a bit too long
