This is the plot of every single Korean drama out there ... if you’d watched 1 you’d watched them all:
  • Boy meets girl, they fall in love
  • 1 of them is the son or daughter of a rich and somewhat powerful family
  • The other will be a peasant
  • The rich kid’s parent(s) look down on the peasant, and will object to them being together
  • The rich kid’s parent(s) will also usually try to matchmake their rich kid with someone else of similar status
  • This someone else of similar status is usually evil and will plot to do bad $#!t to keep rich kid and peasant apart
  • Somewhere along the way peasant finds out he / she was adopted, and his / her real mother (it’s always the mother) is super rich and wants to claim him / her back as her child
  • Rich kid finds out this someone else is evil and kicks them out of their life and manages to get together with the peasant now-rich kid
  • Something bad usually happens to this someone else at this point
  • Rich kid and peasant now-rich kid make peace with this someone else, forgive him / her for being evil in the past
  • And they all live happily ever after
Oh and if you are lucky, the subtitlers will teach you interesting words like “Azoospermia” :s13:

If you are talking about those 7pm drama, they are the same as Hokkien dramas, just that it's Korean version

And they are morning dramas aired in Korea.
