Which K-Drama Main Couple Would You Choose to Be Your Parents?

I’ve been thinking about this fun (and slightly chaotic) hypothetical—if you had to choose a K-drama main couple to be your parents, who would you pick?

But before you answer, there are some things to seriously consider! 😅

What world are they from? If you pick a couple from a fantasy or supernatural K-drama, are you prepared to live in that world? It could be dangerous! Goblins, grim reapers, time travel accidents, or getting caught in a reincarnation cycle might not be the easiest experience.

What about their trauma? A lot of K-drama leads have intense backstories. They’ve been through heartbreak, abandonment, family betrayal... even childhood trauma. Do you think that might affect them as parents? Would they be overprotective? Emotionally distant? Or maybe they’ve worked through their issues by the end of the drama—do you trust that healing stuck?

Their families... Let’s be honest. Some of these K-drama families are toxic. Rich chaebol families, birth secrets, feuding in-laws—would you be dragged into that mess too? If they fought so hard to be together, does it end there, or would those issues keep coming up?

Lifestyle—Would you be living in luxury as a chaebol heir? On a remote island? Running a ramen shop with them? 😄

Parenting style—Would they be strict, fun, chill, overprotective?

I’m super curious—who would you pick as your ideal K-drama parents, and why? And what kind of life do you think you’d have with them?

I would probably pick Hong Du Sik & Yoon Hye Jin from Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha. They balance each other out so well. Du Sik is endlessly kind and capable of doing literally everything, while Hye Jin is hardworking, practical, and caring. You’d grow up in a warm seaside village with a close-knit community, and your parents would teach you how to be both independent and kind-hearted.
