Let's admit it, we sometimes don't have the heart or the emotional capacity to enjoy heavy dramas that discuss sensitive topics like gore, revenge, betrayal and more.

Especially after a long week at work, the best way to unleash stress is to consume lighthearted and happiness-inducing dramas about love, life and friendship.

If you're looking for new K-drama recommendations, then you're in the right place. Here are four healing works to watch to destress this weekend.

'Twinkling Watermelon'

First up on the list is Ryeoun, Seol In Ah, Choi Hyun Wook and Shin Eun Soo's rom-com youth drama "Twinkling Watermelon."

Released in 2023, the series tells the life of a CODA (child of deaf adult) who travels through time through a magical music shop and lands in 1995.

In his journey to go back in time, he meets the younger versions of his parents, and discovers how they fell in love.

It's a romantic work that is accompanied by great music. Without a doubt, it's among the best releases of the year. Check it out now on Viu.

'Welcome To Samdalri'

The recently concluded rom-com drama "Welcome To Samdalri" starring Ji Chang Wook and Shin Hye Sun is next on the list.

It dominated prime time earlier this year as it focused on the stories of two ex-lovers who find their way back to one another after retracing their steps to their beloved hometown.

Watching the drama is the perfect way to unwind as it doesn't only offer a healing storyline but it also boasts the timeless beauty of Jeju Island. Make sure to check it out on Netflix.

With 2 seasons available in the market, it's no doubt that Lee Sun Bin, Han Sun Hwa and Jung Eunji's "Work Later, Drink Now" is a highly loved K-drama in Hallyu.

Based on the webtoon of the same name, the drama tells the lives of three best friends whose life principles revolve around having a cold glass of drink after getting off of work.

Besides the friendship, it also delivers hilarious love lines that anyone can enjoy. End the week with a tall glass of beer while enjoying "Work Later, Drink Now" on Amazon Prime Video.

'Crash Course In Romance'

Among the teen romance dramas available in Hallyu, Netflix's "Crash Course In Romance" tells the beautiful love story of a side dish shop owner and an educational instructor in South Korea.
