Wondering about other Korean shows on Netflix?
Squid Game’s success aside, 2024 promises a slew of captivating Korean series. If you loved Squid Game, brace yourself for Physical 100’s second season, slated for April to June 2024. It’s a real-life competition sans the fatalities, offering contestants a shot at a cash prize through various grueling challenges.
Also, mark your calendar for the return of Hellbound later in the year. This dark fantasy, directed by Yeon Sang-ho of “Train to Busan” fame, delves into a world of monsters and demons, delivering a gripping tale of horror.
But not every show hits the mark. The second season of Zombieverse, a reality TV drama, fell short of expectations when it premiered in August 2023. While some found it scripted and dull, others embraced its whimsy. Despite mixed reviews, Netflix greenlit a second season, catering to diverse tastes.
