Upcoming K-Dramas In October

Published: OCT 24, 2025

GENIE, MAKE A WISH

In this much-awaited Kim Woo Bin-Suzy reunion,

Ga-young (Suzy) frees a genie from a lamp (Woo Bin). This is a romantic comedy, only darker, with the usual slow-burn tropes.

WOULD YOU MARRY ME?

This series leans into the K-drama staple of contract marriages. Choi Woo Shik, a bakery heir and Jung So Min, a small-business owner, agree to a fake marriage for a shot at a luxury newlywed home. It's got all the cliché romance, yet we love it.

TYPHOON FAMILY

Set against the backdrop of the 1997 Asian financial crisis, this K-drama is about a rookie businessman who inherits a failing trading company.

ROMANTICS ANONYMOUS

When a shy chocolatier and touch-aversion heir meet over chocolate, what follows is an awkward, soft, and sensory romance.

THE DREAM LIFE OF MR.KIM

This series follows a middle-aged salaryman (Seung Ryong) slowly realising that the life he built might not actually make him happy. This show will make you want to call your dad or therapist.

MOON RIVER

This is a typical South Korean historical fantasy full of time-travel, soul swaps and Joseon-era chaos. A melancholic crown prince and a spirited woman souls are accidentally swapped, and what follows is a mix of comedy and romance.

CASHERO

This is a strange K-drama where the superpower of a government employee depends on the amount of cash in his pocket. It's a twist on how capitalism dictates your worth. The show swings between satire and action.

CAN THIS LOVE BE TRANSLATED

Expect flirty banter, slow-burn romance and maybe Italian rooftop confessions under fairy lights, where a multilingual interpreter falls for a celebrity client. The show flirts with the idea communication and of what gets lost and what doesn’t between languages.

THE REMARRIED EMPRESS

Revenge looks good on Shin Min A, as an Empress Navier, who reclaims her crown after her husband betrays her by marrying a crown prince of her own. Lee Jong Suk joins her in a swirl of scandal and slow-burning chemistry.

THE MANIPULATED

Though a November drop, but worth to keep an eye on. Ji Chang Wook’s revenge thriller feels darker and more grounded, a story about injustice, guilt, and moral decay. It’s the kind of show you don't watch, you binge.
