7 K-Dramas About Sisterhood That Will Make Your Next Girls' Night Hit Different

Deep convos over a box of pizza at the backdrop of your favorite TV show—a girl's night is all about catching up with your friend's latest gossip and trauma bonding over your relationships. Some nights, on the other hand, are filled with light chuckles and the quiet enjoyment of each other's company. Female friendships are unique in their solidarity, as one's problem becomes everyone's and mi casa becomes su casa.

K-dramas do well in capturing these moments of sisterhood, where the leads support each other through every break-up or career shift. So, instead of your usual rotation of romcoms, Cosmo rounded up a list of K-dramas to binge and remind you how empowering female friendships can be:

A mystery drama set in the 1990s, Undercover Miss Hong revolves around the story of Hong Geum Bo (Park Shin Hye) who works as an elite supervisor in the Financial Supervisory Service. While probing into Hanmin Investment & Securities, she's pushed to go undercover as a 20-year old new hire to find their slush fund ledger.

In her ploy to convince her co-workers that she's 20, she resides in Dorm #301 with Go Bok Hee (Ha Yoon Kyung), Kang Nora (Choi Ji Su), and Kim Mi Sook (Kang Chae Young). Within their humble home, the female employees of Hanmin Securities develop a friendship rooted in scheming, late-night venting, and babysitting Kim Beom (Kim Se A)—Kim Mi Sook's child.

This coming-of-age drama opens with five female college students who become housemates at Belle Epoque. Amid the usual bickering over dinner, they wade through the hardships of college life, complicated relationships, and the uncertainties of early adulthood together.

While their first meetings start off rocky, Yoon Jin Myung (Han Ye Ri), Jung Ye Eun (Han Seung Yeon), Song Ji Won (Park Eun Bin), Kang Yi Na (Ryu Hwa Young), and Yoo Eun Jae (Park Hye Soo) gradually learn to lean on each other after clashing over their different personalities. They grow closer within the walls of Belle Epoque, forming an enduring sisterhood built on shared hopes and dreams.

Unlike the early twenties youth depicted by Hello, My Twenties!, this drama follows thirty-somethings Lim Jin Joo (Chun Woo Hee), Lee Eun Jung (Jeon Yeo Bin), and Hwang Han Joo (Han Ji Eun) who have been friends for years. At an age where everyone's too busy charting their own paths, Be Melodramatic perfectly captures what it's like to find family in your friends.

Despite them going through their individual story arcs, the heart of the drama remains largely rooted in the girls' living room—the walls that bore witness to every laugh, tear, and late-night confession they shared. Simple as it may seem, this drama makes you miss your ride-or-dies who have seen you through all your phases.

A two-part k-drama that actually deserves a flashing "drink responsibly" sign, Work Later, Drink Now follows An So Hee (Lee Sun Bin), Han Ji Yeon (Han Sun Hwa), and Kang Ji Gu (Jung Eun Ji) trauma dumping over bottles and bottles of alcohol. Shifting between scenes of second-hand embarrassment to full-on heart-wrenching moments, this drama tackles the realities of being a woman in your thirties head-on.

Amid the grueling circumstances of the leads, they always end up finding solace in each other's trusted company and shared conversations. This drama reminds you that there's no tea that can't be spilled over a couple of drinks. But, of course, probably don't drink as much as the leads do!

This comedy drama centers on the shenanigans of Han Jeong Suk (Kim So Yeon), Oh Geum Hui (Kim Sung Ryung), Seo Young Bok (Kim Sun Young), and Lee Ju Ri (Lee Se Hee)—four women who strive to make a living by selling adult toys and lingerie. Seen as something taboo during the conservative '90s, their "scandalous" livelihood becomes a means for them to embrace their agency and self-worth.

With its cheeky humor that leaves enough room for heartfelt moments, A Virtuous Business strikes a balance between understated chaos and unbridled warmth as the women navigate their challenges of married life and motherhood while drawing strength from each other.

If you love revenge dramas, Avengers Social Club provides you thrilling twists with a comedic dose of sisterhood. Kim Jung Hye (Lee Yo Won), Hong Do Hee (Ra Mi Ran), and Lee Mi Sook (Myung Se Bin) are three ahjummas who form a revenge social club with Lee Soo Gyeom (Lee Jun Young)—the son of Jung-Hye's husband from an earlier relationship.

Filled with hilarious antics and clueless misadventures, the drama showcases both the messy and heartwarming sides of every relationship. Together, the women empower each other to understand their worth and free themselves from their stifling circumstances.

Now if you're in the mood for literal sisterhood, Little Women is a mystery drama loosely inspired by Louisa May Alcott's novel of the same name. The drama closely follows the sisters Oh In Joo (Kim Go Eun), Oh In Kyung (Nam Ji Hyun), and Oh In Hye (Park Ji Hu) who had to grow up in poverty.

However, their lives take a sharp turn when they get involved with a powerful family. As twists unfold in the story, the sisters' genuine care and loyalty for one another never change, showcasing how true sisterhood is grounded in mutual support.
