Is there any better activity for the long, cold winter months than marathoning a K-drama? No, there is not. In the last few years, Netflix has become one of the go-to platforms for South Korean dramas, investing in the country’s television industry at the production level. This winter, Netflix has a diverse offering of beloved returning and exciting new K-dramas to show for it, offering a horror-tinged end to the 2023 TV season and plenty of romance to start out 2024. Here are the six upcoming Korean dramas you should be watching this winter on Netflix.
Release date: Nov. 25 to Jan. 13, 2024 (two episodes weekly)
Episode count: 16
Recommended for fans of: Goblin,The Vampire Diaries,Business Proposal
This supernatural rom-com has already premiered with its first few episodes on Netflix, and it’s making waves in the U.S. top 10. Starring Sweet Home’s Song Kang as centuries-old demon Jeong Gu-won, who loses his powers when he meets workaholic CEO Do Do-hee (20th Century Girl’s Kim Yoo-jung), My Demon is the perfect winter watch for K-drama fans who still miss Goblin or American TV fans who still miss The Vampire Diaries. Also, there’s cake!
While Gu-won and Do-hee initially want nothing to do with one another, the mystery of Gu-won’s missing powers has them locked in a contract marriage that is the perfect setup for an enemies-to-lovers, workplace-romancehappy ending… let’s hope. My Demon has made no promises, and with stakes as high (and low) as heaven and hell, this K-drama will no doubt keep fans guessing until its mid-January finale.
