Relive the fun memories of high school with All Boys High, a web series starring rap rock band N. Flying members Kim Jae-hyun and Lee Seung-hyub. The fast-paced comedy-drama promises a whirlwind look at how two boys navigate their school days with the power of bromance and youth by their side.
Looking for a romcom that’s as funny as it is heartwarming? Look no further than 72 Seconds, which details the plight of a single, hopelessly awkward young guy looking for love. Filmed as a series of shorts, it promises a ride that is equal parts strange and hilarious, but ultimately endearing.
Continue the laughs with The Innerview, which presents a no-holds-barred look at various aspects of Korean society from the POV of a Korean-Canadian expat. Whether you’re just curious to learn more about Korean culture or want a fresh new take, the biting mockumentary is a can’t-miss.
Viewers looking for a unique perspective on romance will enjoy The Ordinary Life of Ms. ‘O’, an intimate drama about work, love, and life. Also filmed as a series of shorts, the drama follows career woman Miss O, who still dreams of experiencing a pure and innocent romance as she navigates her thirties. It stars Lee Chae-eun who’s part of the hit series All of Us are Dead and Im Chul-soo who’s known for his roles in popular K-drama shows like Crash Landing on You, Vincenzo, and Alchemy of Souls.
Stay on the edge of your seat with Fake, a unique high-paced thriller made for watching on mobile. Starring versatile actors Lee Hyun-wook, Park Hyo-joo, and Sean Dulake, the story follows a man born with the ability to imitate and disguise himself as anyone. When his older brother is murdered under mysterious circumstances, he finds his talents put to the test like never before.
