Goodbye Earth
Goodbye Earth is already available on the platform: the series was added in full (12 episodes) at the end of April 2024. The story is reminiscent of Don't Look Up. In this really stressful k-drama, an asteroid threatens to crash into Earth. No solution seems to exist to save humanity from this impact, which is plunging the planet into chaos. But in the remaining 200 days, some will try to get the best out of humanity.
- Diffusion : available since April 26
- Number of episodes: 12
Frankly Speaking (Honestly)
Frankly Speaking (Or Honestly) promises to belong to this category of k-dramas with funny situations. Because if Song Ki Baek is a good presenter in all respects, he suddenly finds himself affected by a strange pathology: he says everything that comes into his head, without being able to hold back. This attitude earned him growing fame.
- First episode: May 1
- Diffusion : 2 episodes per week, Wednesday and Thursday
- Number of episodes: 12
The Atypical Family (An unusual family)
Fantasy and romance! This is a tasty mixture that is reminiscent of k-drama Alchemy of Souls. But The Atypical Family (Or An unusual family) is however located in the present. This family is “atypical” because of a supernatural particularity: all its members have very particular magical powers. For example, Bok Gwi Doo has the power to travel through time to happy memories. But when he falls into depression, he loses this power. All members of the family gradually lose their powers. Until Do Da He arrives…
One of the main actresses, Claudia Kim, was recently seen in the k-drama The Creature of Kyŏngsŏng.

The 8 Show
If you are waiting for season 2 of Squid Game impatiently, no doubt The 8 Show will make you wait. In this Korean drama which promises to be brutally cruel, eight participants in a reality show are locked in eight closed concrete rooms. They must survive 100 days. The prize is 44 billion won (the equivalent of 30 million euros). The problem is that the resources available are limited. Candidates can buy water, electricity or even food, but at an exorbitant price… and this price is deducted from the final reward. A dystopian nightmare, between economic despair and survival.
In the casting, you will recognize Lee Yul-eum if you have seen the k-drama Nevertheless, also on Netflix. Ryu Jun-yeol, on the other hand, is best known for his roles in Korean cinema (The Night Owl).
- Diffusion : all episodes May 17
