And if you’re one of those rare souls who didn't fall head over heels for them, maybe it’s time to give them another go. After all, perfection deserves a second chance! Alchemy of Souls Set in the fictional land of Daeho, a country unknown to history and maps, this series explores the lives and loves of young mages entangled in a web of destiny altered by the forbidden ‘alchemy of souls’, a spell that swaps souls between bodies. The plot centers on Naksu (Go Youn Jung), an elite assassin whose soul becomes trapped in the frail body of Jang Uk’s servant Mu Deok (Jung So Min), unaware of her powerful mage lineage.



Jang Uk (Lee Jae Wook), the young master of the Jang Family, harbors a scandalous secret and seeks the assassin's help to reshape his own fate. With bodies swapped, secrets flying, and destinies being rewritten, this series, spanning two thrilling seasons, serves up a delightful mix of magic and mayhem in a world where nothing is quite what it seems. Flower of Evil Baek Hee Sung (Lee Joon Gi) seems to have it all - a successful career, a loving wife, and a doting relationship with his young daughter.

Yet beneath this seemingly ideal life, Hee Sung conceals a dark and dangerous secret about his true identity. His carefully crafted facade starts to crack when his wife Ji Won (Moon Chae Won), a dedicated homicide detective, delves into a series of chilling serial murders from 15 years ago. As Ji Won uncovers unsettling clues and observes mysterious shifts in Hee Sung’s behavior, she begins to suspect that he may be hiding more than just a few secrets.

What begins as a routine investigation threatens to unravel their world and expose hidden truths. Move to Heaven In ‘Move to Heaven’, we meet Han Geu Roo (Tang Jun Sang), a 20-year-old autistic man working at his father's crime scene cleanup business, which also helps families by organizing and delivering items left behind by the deceased. When Geu Roo's father passes away, custody shifts to his estranged uncle, Cho Sang Gu (Lee Je Hoon), an ex-convict and underground martial arts fighter.

According to the will, Sang Gu must care for Geu Roo and work alongside him at ‘Move To Heaven’ for three months to secure full guardianship and inherit the family business. Motivated by the prospect of money, Sang Gu agrees and moves in, leading to an unexpected journey of family, duty, and personal growth. Moving In the K-drama adaptation of the webtoon ‘Moving’, three high school students lead seemingly ordinary lives, each hiding extraordinary powers inherited from their parents.

Kim Bong Seok (Lee Jung Ha) can defy gravity with his ability to fly, Jang Hee Soo (Go Youn Jung) boasts superhuman athleticism and rapid healing, and Lee Gang Hoon (Kim Do Hoon) possesses formidable strength and speed. As they struggle to keep their gifts under wraps, their parents are locked in a constant battle to protect them from those who would exploit their abilities. Balancing secrecy with safety, the family’s efforts are crucial in keeping their abilities from falling into the wrong hands.

​Mr Queen Jang Bong Hwan, a top South Korean chef serving the country's elite at the Blue House, faces a dramatic turn of fate after a severe accident. He finds himself transported back in time and inhabiting the body of Queen Kim So Yong (Shin Hye Sun), a royal from Korea’s distant past. In this historical era, Queen So Yong’s husband, King Cheol Jong (Kim Jung Hyun), is little more than a figurehead under the control of his stepmother, Queen Sun Won.

As Sun Won wields power with an iron fist, she contends with her ambitious brother, who also seeks the throne. As Bong Hwan adapts to his new identity, he uncovers startling secrets about his royal husband, revealing that King Cheol Jong is far more complex than he appears. ​My Dearest In the midst of the 1600s Qing invasion, the serene village of Neunggun-ri becomes the stage for an unexpected romance.

Yu Gil Chae (Ahn Eun Jin), a spirited and somewhat spoiled noblewoman known as the ‘99-tailed fox’, is both admired and envied for her beauty and boldness. Despite her appeal, she struggles to win the heart of the one she desires. Enter Lee Jang Hyun (Namkoong Min), a brooding newcomer whose sudden appearance in the social scene stirs both intrigue and disdain.

Though the young nobles shun him, the elderly fall under his spell. Their paths cross dramatically when Gil Chae, in a twist of fate, lands right in Jang Hyun’s arms. As war looms, their burgeoning feelings are cast into uncertainty, separating them before their love can truly blossom.

​My Mister Park Dong Hoon (Lee Sun Kyun), a middle-aged engineer, finds his life less than idyllic despite being married to attorney Kang Yoon Hee. His reality is fraught with challenges: he supports his two unemployed brothers, Sang Hoon and Gi Hoon, while his wife is secretly involved with CEO Do Joon Yeong, his boss and former college junior. When Dong Hoon receives an unexpected bribe, he realizes that his co-worker, Lee Ji An (IU) - a young part-timer drowning in debt and caring for her ill grandmother - has witnessed the incident.

As Dong Hoon becomes entangled in his brothers' struggles and a brewing corporate rivalry, he remains oblivious to the fact that CEO Joon Yeong plans to eliminate him and that Ji An is working for him.
