Netflix's July 2026 Korean-drama calendar is headlined by the supernatural romance 'Spooky in Love' starring Park Eun Bin, alongside the finale of So Ji Sub's action thriller 'Agent Kim Reactivated' and the anticipated fantasy 'East Palace'.
Netflix will keep feeding global appetite for Korean television in July 2026, with a slate that mixes supernatural romance, hard-edged action and period fantasy. The lineup underscores how central K-dramas have become to the streamer's international strategy, as it continues to release Korean titles on a near-weekly rhythm.
The headline arrival is 'Spooky in Love', a weekly series that marks a quick return for Park Eun Bin. The TVN production is billed as an occult romance that follows a hotel heiress able to see ghosts and a driven prosecutor who join forces to solve cases the living cannot. New episodes are set to land on weekends, with the premiere scheduled for July 18. The cast also includes Yang Se Jong, Ong Seong Wu, Jo Hye Joo and Kim Do Wan.
Running alongside it is 'Agent Kim Reactivated', an SBS action-crime thriller that will play out most of its run during the month before wrapping up. The series stars So Ji Sub as a former black-ops operative and single father who turns relentless after his daughter is abducted. Its finale is expected on July 25, with fresh episodes dropping on Fridays and Saturdays.
Another title generating anticipation is 'East Palace', a historical horror-fantasy directed by Choi Jung Gyu and led by Nam Joo Hyuk, Roh Yoon Seo and Cho Seung Woo. Confirmed among Netflix's third-quarter offerings, the series follows a man who can move between the world of the living and the dead and a court lady harboring a secret as they investigate a cursed palace. A mid-July window has been floated, though the exact date remains to be locked in.
The monthly roundup, published by tracking site What's on Netflix, notes that the list is not final and that more Korean titles could be announced across June and July. That flexibility has become a familiar feature of Netflix's release planning, as broadcasters and the platform coordinate weekly drops and simultaneous global availability.
For international viewers, the July slate reflects a broader trend: Korean storytelling continues to draw large audiences well beyond its home market, and Netflix remains one of the primary gateways through which those series reach fans worldwide.
