Right now is the time when many sports fans go crazy due to March Madness. However, there may be some people who are not that into sports (like me, haha). Even if sports are not your cup of tea, K-Dramas do such a great job making sports interesting! They throw in a little bit of romance, a touch of reality, and heapings of eye candy that make all of us want to watch them! How do you do that K-Dramas?

To see that magic in action, here are a few sports-themed shows you can indulge in!

VARIETY: Handsome Tigers

Main Cast: Seo Jang Hoon, Joy (Red Velvet), Lee Sang Yoon, Kim Seung Hyun, Seo Ji Suk, Julien Kang, Shorry, Kang Kyung Joon, Moo Soo In, Lee Tae Sun, Cha Eun Woo, Yoo Seon Ho, Kang In Soo, Jeon Ji Hoon

Just as the title suggests, this show is a basketball entertainment program that’s filled with eye candy! In this show, good-looking actors and entertainment stars formed the celebrity basketball team named Handsome Tigers.

These celebrities aren’t so much professional basketball players, but they are coached by former basketball player Seo Jang Hoon to play against strong, professional players.

And of course, Red Velvet’s Joy is the icing on the cake who plays the role of the Handsome Tigers’ manager, responsible for giving the team emotional support!

VARIETY: Idol Star Athletics Championships

ISAC Spin-Off “2020 Idol eSports Athletics Championships” Reveals Sneak  Peek of Idols Facing Off | Soompi

Main Cast: Various idols

Idol Star Athletics Championships began airing way back in 2010. It’s where you get to see popular idols participate in various sports games!

In 2020, many K-Pop idols joined “Idol Star Athletics Championships” to celebrate a happy new year.

VARIETY: Running Man

Main Cast: Yu Jae Seok, Song Ji Hyo, HaHa, Jee Seok Jin, Kim Jong Kook, Jeon So Min, Yang Se Chan

The “Running Man” members always have exciting races with hilarious, interesting games. More than giving you an adrenaline rush, the members are also guilty of making viewers’ bellies hurt from laughing too much.

Join various spectacular races where the members hurdle through impossible odds with fun special guests each episode, only on “Running Man.”

DRAMA: Stove League

Main Cast: Oh Jung Se, Park Eun Bin, Namkoong Min

In this baseball drama, Namkoong Min played a competent general manager who attempts to help his last ranked baseball team, Dreams, to win. This drama is all about what happens behind the scenes of baseball games–the story follows employees in the office who are managing the baseball team rather than the players and the games themselves. And, believe me when I tell you, it’s just as intense and nerve-racking as a real baseball game! A must-watch.

DRAMA: Weightlifting Fairy, Kim Bok Joo

Main Cast: Lee Sung Kyung, Nam Joo Hyuk

An all-time favorite from K-Drama fanatics all over the world. You probably have seen so many bloggers, K-Drama fans, and influencers talking about this series that is inspired by real-life Korean Olympic gold-medalist Jan Mi Ran who is played by Lee Sung Kyung. Nam Joo Hyuk, who is currently one of the hottest actors in K-Dramaland, played the main male lead who falls deeply in love with Lee Sung Kyung. Lee Sung Kyung (a female weightlifter) and Nam Joo Hyuk (a swimmer) have chemistry in the drama that is indescribably heart throbbing! It is impossible to watch them without stopping every minute to calm all the love cells down. Seriously!
