Top Picks This Month
The Judge Returns launches the month with Ji Sung portraying a judge given a second chance at life after death. Transported back in time, he navigates systemic corruption while rewriting his destiny in this gripping legal drama that airs on MBC and streams on multiple platforms including TVING.
Park Shin-hye makes her highly anticipated return in Undercover Miss Hong, set in the late 1990s. She plays a Financial Supervisory Service inspector who goes undercover as a 20-year-old rookie to expose securities fraud, blending workplace comedy with investigative suspense.
Can This Love Be Translated? reunites audiences with Kim Seon-ho in his first romantic lead since the beloved Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha. Playing a multilingual interpreter to actress Go Youn-jung, the series explores communication barriers and emotional connection. All episodes drop simultaneously on Netflix.
Kim Hye-yoon follows her Lovely Runner success with No Tail To Tell, playing a gumiho (nine-tailed fox) who loses her immortality after an incident with soccer star Lomon. The fantasy romance examines vulnerability and humanity through a supernatural lens.
Historical drama lovers shouldn’t miss To My Beloved Thief, where noblewoman Nam Ji-hyun moonlights as a Robin Hood-style thief during the Joseon era. When she swaps souls with Crown Prince Moon Sang-min, both must navigate each other’s worlds while unraveling deeper conspiracies.
Why January 2026 Stands Out
This lineup showcases Korean television’s diversity, from intimate healing stories like Spring Fever to epic family sagas such as the 50-episode Recipe for Love. The webtoon adaptation Positively Yours brings Oh Yeon-seo and Choi Jin-hyuk together for an unexpected pregnancy romance that challenges traditional relationship norms.
