Waiting for Oblivion: Top 10 K-Drama Quotes for the Ones Left Behind

Oblivion: the fact or condition of not remembering.

A fictional character in one of my favorite young adult novels once stated that he fears oblivion. I used to think the same. But one day I woke up with bloodshot eyes, stared at the ceiling for a few hours, and wished for oblivion to come.

Here’s our Top 10 K-Drama Quotes for all of us who once had sleepless nights while nursing a broken heart.

  • When the other person wishes you well and says the despicable “you deserve someone better” line after finding perfection in someone else.

“After all the pain you put my heart through, now you tell me live well?”

~ Son Oh-gong, Hwayugi

  • When you realize that The Script is being honest when they said that “when a heart breaks no it don’t break even.”

It’s tougher for the ones left behind.”

  • When you’ve learned the bitter truth that people change, including their feelings.

  • When tears can’t stop from falling and you wanted to hear someone say that everything will be okay and that you’re not at fault.

~ Yoon sunbae, Age of Youth

  • When your sister hugs you to sleep at night and whisper comforting words.

“When people are cheated on, people are deluded. They think they made a mistake or it’s their fault. They think if they become dull or boring. They think it’s something they did. But it’s not right. We didn’t do anything wrong. It was them who betrayed us.”
