What are some really lighthearted Kdramas?

Question

I would prefer it to be about highschoolers or rather young adults. I sort of don't need the melodrama thing right now, so avoid that. It would be fun if the show had kpop idols in it, but that's not really necessary.

Here are the shows I've watched already. A star means I liked it, more than that means it is a favorite.
Coffee Prince****
Playful Kiss*
Heirs
Heartstrings
Flowerboy Next Door 
You're Beautiful 
(Nothing in particular against Park Shin Hye herself, I just have never liked any of the dramas she's been in)
Dream High**
To The Beautiful You**
KPop the Ultimate Audition
Ma Boy (1/2)*
My Love from Another Star** (Only two episodes out and I really like it!)
Antique Bakery* (Mostly only for Kim Jae Wook;)

Kdramas I've dropped after a few episodes: 
Flower Boy Ramyun Shop (Eh to the Noona romance...)
Can We Get Married? (Boring, and the moms were annoying.)
I Need Romance (First season, I don't know if I'll pick it up again.)
Unemployed Romance
Answer Me 1997* (I actually liked this one, but I'd have to start again from the beginning and I don't want to right now. *Please don't suggest Reply 1994)
Pretty Man
Shut Up Flower Boy Band

And here are the Jdramas I've seen. Please only recommend a Jdrama if it has a lot of romance.
Nodame Cantabile**
1 Litre of Tears*
High School Debut
Nobuta wo Produce
Hana Kimi* (Although I prefer the Korean version)

I like a lot of romance! If there are too many characters I get annoyed (although this is a big trend in Kdramas, for every character to have their own sideplot...)  Sorry about the length, but PLEASE READ MY LIST SO THERE ARE NO REPEATS. OR AT LEAST USE CTRL + F.

Korean:
1. Princess Hours - a normal girl is betrothed to marry to Crown Prince of South Korea. My most favorite Korean drama ever. Same girl from Coffee Prince!

2. Secret Garden - funny, angst and just one of the best dramas I have ever watched. A stuntwoman and CEO of a mall switch bodies when it rains. One of the most funny, tear jerking, sweetest and amazing Korean dramas I have watched.

3. My Princess - South Korea transforms into a monarchy and a girl finds out that she is the crown princess.

4. My Girl - a girl pretends to be the cousin of a rich man to fulfill the rich man's grandfather's wish.

5. Lie to Me - two people pretend to be married. Same girl from Coffee Prince!

6. Personal Taste

7. My Girlfriend is a Gumiho

8. A Gentleman's Dignity - a story about four men in their 40's. Funny and sweet! Definitely a light hearted drama.

Taiwanese:

1. It Started with a Kiss & They Kiss Again - A MUST WATCH. I swear to you.


Japanese:

1. Paradise Kiss (the movie) - Amazing movie, better than the manga. The manga had a sad ending while this had a happy one.

Seriously, you're missing out on Boys over Flowers. I'm a big fan of Korean Dramas, it's the bullying & the teasing that keeps their shows interesting, just being honest. So is Shut up Flower Boy Band... That's a good one as well. check out Jungle Fish.. Haven't seen it, but there's lots of good reviews. Korean guys are cute ^^
