As familiar as the trope may be, there's an undeniable charm in watching powerful CEOs discover love and encounter their soulmate, isn't there? Recently, this plotline seems to be enjoying a resurgence in popularity, and we're certainly not complaining. We've got you covered if you're keen to explore this delightful narrative but unsure where to start. Here are six compelling K-dramas featuring CEO protagonists that you absolutely must watch!

1. "The Business Proposal": Desperate to get his grandfather off his back about finding a wife, heir to GO Food, Kang Tae Moo gets hitched to the first lady he sees but Shin Ha-Ri isn't who she says she is.

2. "See You In My 19th Life": Son of the MI Group, Moon Seo Ha, isn't like the usual CEO you'd see in K-dramas. More on the reserved, quiet side, you won't see him flaunting his wealth in others' faces. Instead, he'll be the one to stand up against those who use their money and power to bring others down. After facing a traumatic accident, Moon Seo Ha is riddled with guilt about what happened to his first love. But lo and behold, his first love has a secret that brings her face to face with Seo Ha himself.

3. "What Wrong with Secretary Kim?": Sometimes you just got to give it straight, and Vice Chairman Lee Young Joon isn't afraid to hold back on his words. Some may say he's rude, and others may say that he's a narcissist, but despite all that, all Young Joon wants to do is keep his secretary by his side, even if it means asking her to marry him.

4. "Start-Up": There's nothing more exciting than seeing someone make their way up to the top from the bottom, as is the case for Nam Do San. Starting as an ordinary civilian, despite what others said, Nam Do San uses his intelligence with coding to start up his own tech company. We also can't forget everyone's other favorite capital investor, Han Ji Pyeong.

5. "Coffee Prince": Questioning his own identity, café owner Choi Han Kyul, son of a food conglomerate, finds himself second-guessing his feelings for one of his employees. Will he take the plunge into the romance, or will he do whatever it takes to distance himself?

6. "Strong Girl Bong Soon": Not one to back down from a challenge, An Min Hyuk, CEO of a gaming company, finds himself hiring a bodyguard after receiving multiple threats. But his bodyguard is definitely not what he expected.
