Attorney Woo was really great and I'm looking really looking forward for the second season.
The Glory was a bit too grim for me, but I did finish it.
Stranger and Goblin I did like both.

My recommendations would be
- Sky Castle (the first episode is a bit boring, but ends with a bang and after that I could not stop watching and it become one of my all time favourites)
- Search WWW (good plot, bautifully framed and shot, excellent music)
- Start-Up (also interesting plot and high production quality, contains one of the most ridiculously funny moments few dramas after it have referenced)
- It's Ok Not To Be OK (the female lead character is quite bad representation, which have turned some off, but otherwise very touching and fun and Moon Sang-tae (played by Oh Jung-se) is one of the best represented autistic characters)

For me: I wasn't sold on #DevilJudge but others might like it. #SKYCastle has some angst and shaking your head moments.#Misaeng is good.

Another drama that I think is nice is #It'sOkayThat'sLove with Gong Hyo Jin and Jo In Sung. The writer is behind #Live, #OurBlues, #DearMyFriends and several other really lovely and touching dramas. Dear My Friends is interesting in that it's focus is primarily on a group of 50/60+ friends.

Glad that you are enjoying it. I thought it was a really well done drama.

Angst and second hand embarrassment can either work really well or really badly.
Recently there was a 3 season drama called #LoveMarriageDivorce, a makjang drama like #SKYCastle, and there was almost too much angst! IMO it was brought on by trying to "go big" with bad writing and preposterous storylines. BUT did I watch all 3 seasons? Yes, because the angst had me gripped and semi shouting at my screen 😂 I don't think that I could have taken a season 4.

@hobiis
On Canadian NFx you have several good, imo, #kdramas that are suspenseful etc

#AllOfUsAreDead is zombies
#Kingdom is zombies in the Joseon era
#SweetHome has monsters
#Voice has crime/revenge
#Signal has crime and time travel(ish)
#ItaewonClass has class divisions, crime and revenge
#Skycastle about the rich, their children and secrets
#Vincenzo is crime and revenge
#Missing:TheOtherSide about a village of deceased souls

I think that should keep them busy ;)

So I'm on episode 17 now and highly recommend Sky Castle. It feels like a scripted version of The Real Housewives.
