"The Heirs" has ended, happily for some of the characters and less happily for others. But viewers may find that a drama's ending, even a happy one, leaves them feeling less than happy. The series attracted such a devoted following that viewers may wonder what to do with the time they spent watching their favorite drama. No worries.

Here are a few tips to help you adjust:

  1. Watch other dramas that your favorite "Heirs" actors are in. If you have not already seen Lee Min Ho's other dramas, check out "Boys Over Flowers," "City Hunter," "Personal Taste" and "Faith The Great Doctor." For Park Shin Hye, the obvious choices are "You're Beautiful," "Flower Boys Next Door" and "Heartstrings." You can also watch breakout star Kim Woo Bin in "School 2013." And Choi Jin Hyuk was great as a gumiho in "Gu Family Book."
  2. Starting another drama, even without any of "The Heirs" stars is the best cure for post-drama blues. Consider the other top dramas of the year, including "Empress Ki," "The Master's Sun" and "I Hear Your Voice." Or wait till next week and watch "You Who Came From The Stars" starring Kim Soo Hyun. If you prefer another high school drama, "Dream High," starring Kim Soo Hyun, Suzy and Taecyeon, and "Shut Up Flower Boy," starring Sung Joon and Infinite's L, have plenty of idol eye candy.
  3. Spend some time making up a list of the best moments in "The Heirs." Discuss them in detail with friends and fans.
  4. Have a party (spoiler alert): Organize a party with fellow fans along the lines of the party at the end of "The Heirs." Have everyone come as the person they would like to be in 10 years. It will be interesting to see if people's idea of who they will become meshes with their friends'. Did you think the party scene at the end of "The Heirs" captured a future you wanted for the characters?
  5. Write some fan fiction, extending the story into the future. You can imagine Kim Tan and Cha Eun Sang living happily ever after.
  6. If all else fails, and even if it doesn't, watch "The Heirs" all over again. Now that it has ended, you can marathon it over a snowy winter weekend. That's the great thing about dramas. You can watch them as many times as you want.
