Hello, My Twenties! (Seasons 1–2)

Five women, one roof and almost nothing in common. Hello, My Twenties! (2016) is a South Korean dramedy you can watch online on iFILM. The housemates share a creaky old place with a grand name, Belle Epoque.

Each one runs at her own speed: one pinches every won she earns, one drifts from boyfriend to boyfriend, another hides a heavy past behind a bright smile. At first the rent is all they share, but morning breakfasts, fights over dirty dishes and late-night talks slowly turn flatmates into something like family. The mood swings from light comedy to surprisingly dark turns, because the house, like its tenants, keeps a few ghosts.

This JTBC series says out loud what glossier K-dramas tiptoe around: money, loneliness, sex, trauma. Two seasons, a fair share of tears and plenty of warm humor. Perfect if you are tired of sugary dramas and want characters who feel real. Stream every season of Hello, My Twenties! online on iFILM.
