Fans of Chinese stars Yang Zi and Xiao Zhan can catch them in The Oath of Love, a highly anticipated C-drama about a fresh graduate (Yang Zi) whose life hits rock bottom after she has to attend to her father’s ailing health. Then she meets Gu Wei (Xiao Zhan), her father’s attending physician, and sparks fly.

Lighten the mood with Dali and the Cocky Prince, a rom-com streaming first on Viu! Dal Ri (Park Gyu Young) is a visiting researcher from an art gallery and the only child of a prestigious family. A quirky and unexpected romance develops after she meets “cocky prince” (Kim Min Jae), the second son of a global restaurant franchise firm.

In One the Woman, a case of mistaken identity with a twist, a corrupt female prosecutor gets into a car accident and loses her memories in the process. When she wakes up from a coma, her life changes as her identity is swapped with that of the daughter-in-law of conglomerate BK Group, who just looks like her.

Looking for romance with a twist? Catch K-movie Beautiful Vampire, where rising star Song Kang falls in love with a 500-year-old vampire who runs a small makeup shop in Seoul. He triggers her thirst for human blood, which she has suppressed for hundreds of years.

Exciting thrillers for the crime and thriller aficionados

Switch gears and quicken the pace with crime dramas and thrillers that will leave you breathless! Start with the much-awaited action-crime series The Veil, starring heart-throb Namgoong Min as Han Ji Hyuk, a top agent at the National Intelligence Service (NIS) who was in pursuit of an organised crime syndicate when he goes missing for a year. He returns to take revenge on the person who betrayed his trust and caused his downfall.

If you’re a fan of popular K-dramas that portray the lives of the rich, like The Penthouse series and A World of Married Couple, High Class is right up your alley. A mystery thriller about the dangerous contradictions and hypocrisies behind the perfect lives of women living in the top 1% of society, Song Yeo Wool (Jo Yeo Jung) is a widow who is falsely accused of her husband’s murder. Malicious rumours about her are spread by her peers, and she goes on a dangerous path to discover the truth behind her husband’s death.

Don’t miss Hometown, a crime drama set more than 20 years ago. It is centred around a police detective in a rural town investigating a string of strange murders and a woman on the hunt for her missing niece. They are both inexplicably connected to a terrorist attack from 10 years ago, and team up to uncover the truth.

Another must-watch is K-movie Midnight, a thrilling story about a deaf girl partaking in a dangerous game of hide-and-seek with a serial killer after she witnesses his attack on another girl.
