Upcoming Korean Dramas - January 2022
Oh, hi there! As you join the holiday rush and think about last-minute gift shopping,
Perhaps, you're in the middle of the holiday season, but spare us a few minutes because you don't want to
miss out on the fantastic things that are bound to happen in the world of Korean dramas.
Kdramaland is showering us with a bunch of different genres in the first month of the
new year, including supernatural, fantasy, legal,
romance, medical, and comedy. Do you want to see a zombie drama as well? Stay with us
because we've got that, too!
Reaction Time: My watchlist will undoubtedly include the top four most anticipated Korean dramas in this video!
How about you? Tell us about it later.
Reminder: Please note that the following dramas' air dates are subject to change.
Now let's get started!
Shooting Star will take us behind the scenes of the entertainment industry as it follows
the stories of PR teams, reporters, and managers. Yes, we'll get a look at the people who clean
up the mess by celebrities. Meet the head of a PR team at an entertainment company,
as well as her enemy, a perfect top star. They spend most of their time bickering, but
what will happen if they begin to develop affection for one another?
One of the most awaited Korean dramas of next year is coming to us in January! Hopefully,
with no delays. Shooting Star presents the famous actress Lee Sung Kyung and stars of
The Penthouse: The War in Life Kim Young Dae and Yoon Jong Hoon. It certainly is a star-studded
drama because CNBLUE's Lee Jung Shin is also part of the cast!
This is not a drill! I can hear the Kdrama fans screaming from here! Thankfully, we are
not dreaming. It's real, and it's coming to us in January! Rain, Uee, Kim Bum, and Son Na Eun
are all in the same drama! The Ghost Doctor has assembled an all-star cast for us!
A supernatural drama will be rolling our screens as The Ghost Doctor tells a story about doctors
who are so distinct in skills and personalities end up merging spirits and bodies that are
in a confused possession. This drama is ushering in the new year with spookiness.
Who else is looking forward to Netflix originals? You know Korean dramas partnered with Netflix
are one to look out for. All of Us Are Dead is another zombie drama! Will this school
and zombie drama land on our favorites like the Netflix hit Kingdom? We still have a few
weeks before we find out! Let's take a look at the plot for the time being.
The drama All of Us Are Dead tells the tale of high school students. It will not be about
getting good scores or passing exams. No, this isn't your typical high school drama.
All of Us Are Dead is about a group of students trapped inside their school as a zombie virus
spreads like wildfire. What will happen to these students amid this crisis?
A man decides to take his own life, but fate has other ideas. When he was about to jump
off a bridge, he noticed another person attempting to do the same. He tries to save the person
until they both fall by accident. As a result of the crisis management team led by grim
reapers arriving late, our male protagonist ends up in a three-year coma. He's now half-alive
and half-dead, and he lands a position with the underworld's most prominent grim reaper
company.
Kdramaland is offering us a fantasy in the first month of the new year. Yup, it's true!
It's SF9's Rowoon who will be leading this drama. Fans are ecstatic that the idol-actor
is slaying it in the Kdrama scene and allowing us to witness him in various roles and genres.
Hmm, how about a legal drama? After her outstanding performance in the 2020 Kdrama Hyena, Kim
Hye Soo is back with another law drama to look forward to!
Meet a prickly judge in Yeonhwa District's juvenile court who despises juvenile offenders.
This judge has previously been a victim of a juvenile crime. Juvenile Justice will take
us through a variety of cases concerning young people and a journey in discovering what it
means to be an adult.
Need to get your hair done? Fly High, Butterfly is coming to your service! Flying Butterflies
will take you to the Fly High, Butterfly salon. Meet our female protagonist, who is in her
early twenties. She's a dedicated assistant intern, but that doesn't ensure her in having
an excellent experience dealing with customers. She is working with three other interns. The
hairstylists and director of the salon are also introduced in the drama.
Kim Hyang Gi and Choi Daniel have returned to the small screen for leading parts after
a few years away from the Kdrama scene! Are you looking forward to seeing them again?
Please let us know by giving this video a thumbs up!
With the Korean drama Through the Darkness, the Kdrama world brings us mind games immediately
in the new year. Please put on your most comfortable clothes and join us as we try to solve the
puzzles in this thriller and crime drama.
Rolling on our screens is a story of criminal profilers who are having a hard time reading
the minds of serial killers. A calm and charismatic criminal profiler will investigate cases and
analyze the human psyche in depth. Through the Darkness is based on Kwon Il Yong, Korea's
first criminal profiler, and journalist and author Ko Na Mu's 2018 non-fiction book of
the same name.
Internal Medicine Director Park is adapted from the webtoon entitled Internal Medicine Physician
Park Won Jang. Is this drama going to be as good as or better than the webtoon? Will it
meet everyone's expectations, or will it fall short? Well, we're hoping things go well and
that we have a good time.
A comedy and medical drama will greet us in the new year! A doctor recently opened his
internal medicine clinic. His dream is to become known as a competent physician while
also making a lot of money. On the other hand, opening a clinic does not guarantee a large
sum of money. This doctor will soon face challenges in saving his clinic, far from what he had
imagined. Furthermore, he begins to lose his hair, and his wife places more faith in the
advice of medical TV shows than in him.
