Just a few days left until November—are you ready for the new K-Dramas?

The lineup is stacked and sure to win fans’ hearts. From the much-awaited Season 3 of “Taxi Driver” to Doh KyungSoo and Ji ChangWook’s “The Manipulated,” everyone’s counting down to November.

Here are the K-Dramas coming in November 2025!

“Last Summer” — 12 eps

Childhood, first love, and regret all crash back when twin brothers who grew up apart reunite years later. It’s emotional, a little messy, and very “what if things had been different?”

“Nice to Not Meet You” — 16 eps

A top star with attitude and a tired journalist who gets forced into covering celebrity news keep running into each other (and annoying each other) until it starts feeling not so annoying.

“The Manipulated” — 12 eps

Imagine waking up and realizing your entire life was someone else’s setup. He was used, betrayed, almost destroyed — and now he’s done being the victim. Dark revenge energy.

“Dear X” — 12 eps

She looks like the perfect celebrity on the outside, but behind the spotlight she’s controlling, calculating, and willing to burn people to get what she wants. It’s giving “pretty but dangerous.”

“Moon River” — 14 eps

A crown prince and a bounty hunter literally switch bodies in historical Korea. Politics, mistaken identity, forbidden feelings… basically chaos and longing in hanbok.

“As You Stood By” — 8 eps

Two women who are stuck in violent, hopeless situations decide they’re done being victims and start planning a way out. It’s intense, personal, and only 8 episodes — so no filler.

“No Next Life” — 12 eps

Three longtime friends hit that “is this really my life?” point in their 40s and try to rebuild love, career, and self-worth from zero. It’s honest, a little bitter, and very comforting at the same time.

“Dynamite Kiss” — 14 eps

She lies about being a mom just to land a job (desperate times), and then accidentally develops a crush on her super serious team leader. It’s rom-com, but with adult problems like rent.

“Heroes Next Door” — 10 eps

A bunch of ex–special forces types basically become unofficial local protectors. Less “superhero in a cape,” more “your scary hot neighbor who quietly fixes problems for everyone.”

“Taxi Driver Season 3” — 16 eps

The crew is back doing what the law can’t: taking revenge for victims who got ignored. If you like justice served with style and satisfaction, this is that drama.

“The Price of Confession” — 12 eps

An art teacher gets pulled into a murder case and suddenly her peaceful life is destroyed. The only person who might save her is a woman everyone calls a “witch.” Dark, elegant, morally complicated.
