Whether it’s the suspense and butterflies brought by Crash Landing on You or the stirring connections from Extraordinary Attorney Woo and Business Proposal that made us all melt inside, Netflix has shown that it is a premier destination for some of the world’s best K-Romances.

In the last four years alone, K-Romance viewership on the streaming platform has tripled, with 90% coming from outside South Korea.

It doesn’t stop there: in the next five months, Netflix is set to release six more K-Romance titles to make us smile and touch our hearts even further with different compelling love stories, so make sure to add these to your watchlist!

See you in my 19th life (June 17)

In this spinoff from a hit webtoon, Shin Hye-sun stars as a protagonist who remembers all her past lives.

As a young girl in her 18th life, she falls for a boy next door. As she gets reincarnated for her 19th life, she tries to win him back, only to find out he has become a cold man who does not want to get close with anyone.

Can love triumph across lifetimes?

King the Land (June 17)

A wealthy heir played by K-Pop idol Jun-ho meets a girl played by fellow idol Yoona who smiles brightly as part of her job in one of his family businesses.

Not a fan of fake smiles, he dislikes the girl, writing her off as someone with fake personality.

Viewers will be in for a ride in the K-Pop idols’ K-Romance acting debut.

Behind Your Touch

In this all-in-one comedy-suspense-romance title, rom-com queen Han Ji-min is a veterinarian in a small town who has a very strange gift of psychometry.

When she convinces a detective of her abilities, they team up to solve neighborhood crimes.

Destined with You

In this story, Rowoon plays a lawyer who seemingly has it all, but is haunted by a family curse.

That is until he meets an unsuspecting civil servant played by Cho Boa, who will eventually serve as the woman to break the curse.

A Time Called You (3rd quarter 2023)

Business Proposal’s Ahn Hyo-seop is back, starring with Vincenzo’s Jeon Yeo-been in this remake of classic Taiwanese romance Someday or One Day.

Both leads will play two separate characters, with one of Jeon’s character travelling back in time to 1998 and meets a man played by Ahn.

This man bears an uncanny resemblance to her late boyfriend, complicating everything from the get-go.

Doona! (4th quarter 2023)

Yang Se-jong is a college student who had to deal not only with school but also with the fact that he’s living with a former K-Pop sensation, played by real-life former K-Pop star Suzy.
