My Top Three Noona Romance Korean Drama

 There's a different kind of thrill whenever I watch a guy fall in love with an older woman in korean dramas. In the beginning, I would always wonder if the actors can pull off a love story with a big age difference between the characters. But these kind of korean dramas never disappoint me. I always end up  drawn to the characters. 

Here are my top three noona romance korean dramas:

    This is a 2019 series which stars Lee Jong Suk (31) as Cha Eun Ho and Lee Na Young (42) as Kang Dan-I. Eun Ho and Dan-I were childhood friends.  Eun Ho was particularly fond of Dan-I  but Dan-I  married another guy. Fast forward to adulthood, Eun Ho became  a writer and an editor of a book publishing company. Dan-I became an unemployed divorcee. She ended up getting a job at Eun Ho's company as a temporary task support team member.
