Writing Lessons from K-dramas 

Korean dramas are increasing in popularity around the world, so much so that one (Squid Game) is the most-watched drama in Netflix’s history, in any language. They appeal to viewers in ways that authors endeavor to appeal to readers: great characters, emotional and relatable stories, original plots, world building that makes you feel as if you are there beside the main characters, and effective use of tropes.

​

USA Today bestselling author Trish Milburn, an avowed fan of both K-dramas and K-pop music, has used both to inspire her Idol in Love K-pop romance series and her Could Have Been a K-drama novella series. This workshop, K-Dramas: Binge Watch Your Way to Better Stories, will explore the reasons why K-dramas are so popular with viewers and some examples of dramas to watch in order to get the creative sparks popping.
