Latest K-dramas to watch on OTT


Can This Love Be Translated?? - Netflix
Kim Seon Ho returns to the rom-com space alongside Go Youn Jung in this charming, globe-hopping series.

The drama premieres on January 16.


No Tail to Tell - Netflix
This fantasy rom-com brings a quirky Gen Z spin to the classic gumiho tale. Kim Hye Yoon plays a nine-tailed fox who carefully avoids doing either good or bad deeds to maintain her immortality. Her carefully balanced life falls apart after an accident turns her into a human. Enter Lomon as a narcissistic but talented soccer star who becomes her unlikely emotional anchor. The show started streaming on Netflix from January 16.


Undercover Miss Hong - Netflix
Park Shin Hye headlines this workplace drama set during South Korea’s IMF crisis. She plays a sharp prosecutor forced to go undercover as her younger sister inside a financial company to expose corruption. Things get complicated when she discovers her boss is also her ex. Balancing office politics, unresolved feelings, and high-stakes investigations, the series mixes satire, suspense, and nostalgia. It begins streaming on January 17.

Positively Yours - Viki

Based on a popular webtoon by Lee Jung, this rom-com explores the unexpected consequences of a one-night stand. A chaebol heir and a company manager, both firmly against love and marriage, find their lives tangled when an unplanned pregnancy changes everything.

Made in Korea - Disney+
This political thriller wrapped up its first season, with the finale dropped on January 14. Set in the 1970s, the story follows a power-hungry mastermind and a determined prosecutor locked in a dangerous battle of ideals. Starring Hyun Bin and Jung Woo Sung, the show blends history, politics, and personal sacrifice. A second season has already been confirmed.


Love Me - Viki
A Korean adaptation of the Swedish drama Älska mig, this slice-of-life series focuses on a deeply flawed yet relatable family. The story explores love, ambition, generational conflict, and long-buried secrets with emotional honesty. Rather than big twists, the drama prioritises realism and quiet moments, making it a comforting watch. Episodes 9 and 10 premiere on January 16.
