@snikkiml In my personal opinion. Kdramas and Cdramas are very different. It might just be me, but they don't feel the same very often. So you should think of them separately. Beware, you might not ever like kdramas or rarely like them but you have to go in with an open mind!
Since you are limited to Netflix here’s my recommendations (BEWARE: Netflix’s options are SEVERELY limited. They have the High Standard, costly dramas, but mostly they have low budget web dramas that are cringey too. I used the nice budget options. I’m just going to assume you’re using the american netflix and that’s where my knowledge is(that’s what I have) because other countries have different/better options.
Strong Woman Do Bong Soon-rated pretty high in the fandom for good reason. I had a hard time with the female lead but the lead male outshines its really good. (Closest in similarity to a cdrama on this list)
Age of Youth (Hello My Twenties)-its a group drama with a great female cast and I didn’t watch the second season because of actress changes. But the first season I really enjoyed.
My Only Love Song-Historical/time travel but it was really good. I dont usually like time travel OR Korean historicals so...
This side of the list feels more Adult Geared:
Romance is a Bonus Book-I have not watched this one but many seem to like it.
Something in the Rain (Pretty Noona Who Buys Me Food)-I would not recommend this drama. But, its beautifully shot, the relationship is hot, and the lead male is great. But the villain of this drama was too much.
A Korean Odyssey (Hwayugi)-Beware of tragedy, but another high budget beautifully shot drama, good romance.
Beating Again-I really like this one. It has its sad moments, it has its funny, there could be a little more romance but overall it was solid.
That Winter, The Wind Blows-I haven’t watched yet, but it is on my to watch list. It has cohabitation which I think you like, but it’s a melo so it’s not really humorous.
One Spring Night-The male lead from Pretty Noona, he always picks beautifully shot shows, but the female leads are always... not my favorites. I haven’t watched this one but I hear its okay.
