2024 Korean Dramas (Jan-Jun): Have You Been Keeping Up?

[cmoneyspinner]

2024 Korean Dramas are rolling out on Netflix, Viki, Amazon Prime, Disney+/Hulu, and Paramount+. These streaming platforms fiercely compete to maintain their subscribers, and I have been fiercely trying to keep up with them. It’s July 2024. Check out the reviews published via PopGeeks for the first half of the year, Jan-Jun. They are grouped by streaming platforms and in alphabetical order. (NOTE: If there are other 2024 K-dramas that have not been reviewed, it’s probably because they are not on streaming platforms accessible to the US viewing audience. If any 2024 K-dramas are not on this list please mention titles in the comments. Thanks!) ♦ Reviews of 2024 K-Dramas on Netflix Thee Atypical Family ~ Superheroes With No Superpowers?

Hmm, interesting selection. Not sure anything here really jumps out at me. Maybe "Chief Inspector 1958" for the retro vibes. Or "Su Ji and U Ri" - a medical drama could be good. I'll definitely check out the reviews on PopGeeks before I decide what to watch. Anyone else here super picky with their K-dramas?

This is a lifesaver! I always struggle to keep up with all the new shows. "Doctor Slump" sounds relatable - gotta love a good show about life's little mishaps. "The Whirlwind" and "Hierarchy" being limited series are perfect for when I don't want to commit to a long drama. Thanks for the info!

Whoa, this is overwhelming! So many titles, I don't even know where to start. Maybe something on Netflix since that's the only streaming service I have. "The Atypical Family" sounds interesting - are there any superpowers involved? And "Queen of Tears" - is it sad or happy? Any recommendations for someone who's new to K-dramas?

This list is fantastic! It's refreshing to see such a strong showing for thrillers in the first half of 2024. "A Killer Paradox" immediately grabbed my attention - a killer hunting other killers? Sign me up! And "Hide (2024)" - is the lack of a year in the title a clue to some kind of time travel element? The whole "spouses not communicating" thing is a classic recipe for disaster, so I'm curious to see how they spin it. Viki's "Midnight Photo Studio" also sounds like it could be right up my alley. I love a good supernatural mystery. Now, the only challenge is narrowing down which one to watch first! Maybe I can convince my spouse to join me for a thriller marathon this weekend

Thanks. When I make these lists or collections, I'm doing it for myself. But I figure others will also think the info comes in handy.
