Here’s where to find Song Joong-ki if you loved ‘Descendants of the Sun’

Korean dramas are a great escape into crazy & intense storylines filled with larger-than-life characters. If you’re not careful, you’ll be sucked into a Korean series spiral and soon you won’t remember what your life was like before you found the drama. But who says that’s such a bad thing?

Anyone who’s just wrapped up their binge of Descendents of the Sun is itching for more content starring Song Joong-ki. After sixteen episodes of watching him as the dashing Special Forces captain, it’s all you can think about. 

Since we all could use more Song Joong-ki in our lives here are a few leads on his other work. 

Penny Pinchers

After Ji-Woong finds himself homeless, Hong Sil ropes him into a money-making scheme and well . . . hijinks ensue.
