Familiar Love
There's so much more to love than romantic love.
These are some dramas that highlighted love in families (found or biological) that I enjoyed.
*My comments under each title may highlight the negative aspects of the dramas but they are wonderful and beautiful stories through and through (maybe not so much "The Bond" after a while)*

Their relationship was a little bit too co-dependent-y after a while. You should be able to maintain relationships outside your family and none of them were really able to.
Also word of advice to the girlies: once a cheater, always a cheater.
