K-Dramas on OTT: Titles releasing in October 2024

Spice Up Our Love

Release date: October 3

The first K-Drama to start October with a bang is Spice Up Our Love. This romantic fantasy series stars Lee Sang-yi and Han Ji-hyun in the lead roles. Fun fact, this show is a spin-off series of August’s chart-topping series, No Gain No Love. Although the series has been greenlit for its OTT release on Amazon Prime Video, there is no official confirmation that the show will be released on India’s Prime Video on October 3.

Regardless, Spice Up Our Love is a romance K-Drama revolving around Nam Ja-yeon, an R-rated romance web novelist. Things take a fantastical turn when Ja-yeon gets pulled into her own novel, becoming the main character, Seo Yeon-seo. What comes next is pretty obvious. Watch Seo Yeon-seo’s erratic romance with her novel’s main lead, Kang Ha-joon.

A Virtuous Business

Release date: October 12 

The next addition to this list has quite a unique premise in terms of K-Dramas. A Virtuous Business starring Kim So-yeon, Yeon Woo-jin, Kim Sung-ryung, Kim Sun-young, and Lee Se-hee is different from the usual K-drama releases. How? Well, instead of drool-worthy male actors, the plot revolves around four women who found success after they started door-to-door sales of sex products in a rural village. In 1992, when the topic of ‘sex’ was still taboo, these four women managed to break all societal confines and bring energy back into the lives of couples around them. Remake of a British show, Brief Encounters, A Virtuous Business will be available to stream on Netflix from October 12, 2024.

Hellbound Season 2

Release date: October 25

Netflix’s hit K-drama series, Hellbound will be returning with its second instalment on October 25, 2024. This dark fantasy film starring Yoo An-in and Kim Hyun-joo in lead roles has been one of the most-anticipated K-Dramas of the month. The plot of Hellbound follows Jung Jin-soo who creates a new religious group, New Truth Society.

As the fear of the cult spreads, the religious group slowly gains power by promoting its moral absolutism agenda. However, the group faces an obstacle as an opposing group of people question their legitimacy and attempt to uncover the truth behind the mysterious supernatural events.
