January has started off strong in the K-drama land, with Marry My Husband on Prime Video getting better with each week and Dr Slump showing much promise even in its first two episodes. For February, we have thrillers, an inheritance war, and a good old contract marriage among other genres and tropes to choose from. Here are some K-dramas you can delve into this month.
After the success of Our Beloved Summer, A Killer Paradox seems to mark a complete change for Choi Woo-shik. The actor will play a college student who discovers his special abilities after he accidentally kills someone. Hot on his heels, however, is a detective, played by Son Suk-ku, who is determined to unravel the details of this mystery. With Suk-ku and Woo-shik leading the cast, expectations are sky-high for this limited series.
