Good chemistry is like a breath of fresh air that elevates the viewing experience to a whole other level. There’s an extra burst of sweetness when we see friendships continue from filming into real life. 

In the past year, we’ve had the privilege of watching several excellent K-dramas, thanks to the actors’ sizzling chemistry. Not only are they a joy to watch on-screen, they never fail to make viewers smile when the cameras are off too, such as the cast of the following shows.

Love Alarm S2

Love Alarm features a difficult love triangle between Kim Jojo (Kim So-hyun), Hwang Sun-oh (Song Kang), and Lee Hye-yeong (Jung Ga-ram). There’s a lot of heartfelt feelings on-screen and playful dynamics off-screen. You can notice the overall chemistry feeling more relaxed and comfortable in the second season. A second season does mean that the cast gets to spend more time with each other and this can help friendships grow stronger. You can see how friendly the main leads are as they joke around behind the scenes.

Sisyphus

Sisyphus focuses on genius engineer Han Tae-sul (Cho Seung-woo) and a woman named Gang Seo-hae (Park Shin-hye) who comes from the future to save him. On-screen, the pair’s teamwork is a delight to watch with Tae-sul’s ingenuity and Seo-hae’s fearlessness perfectly complementing one another. 

Off-screen, the actors are adorable as they joke around and strike funny poses. Both actors are known for maintaining friendships made on set and are very friendly with their co-stars. The duo’s partnership chemistry is one of the best facets of the series.

Space Sweepers

Sure, Space Sweepers is a film, but the cast members are so fun and natural together that we think they deserve an honourable mention!

The found family squabble and have their differences while working and living together on a spaceship, but their family-like chemistry is entertaining to watch.
