Upcoming K-dramas in 2025 and 2026
Waiting for Gyeongdo
Park Seo Joon, known for his roles in romantic comedies, will headline Waiting for Gyeongdo, a fresh take on rekindled love. Set for release in the second half of 2025, the series revolves around Lee Gyeongdo,
an entertainment reporter at Dongwoon Daily, and his ex-girlfriend Seo Jiwoo, played by If You Wish Upon Me star Won Ji An. Jiwoo, now the heiress of Jarim Apparel and known for her headline-making antics, finds her past colliding with her present after her husband's scandal is exposed.

The series brings a balance of comedy, nostalgia, and second-chance romance as the two former lovers, who first dated at 20 and broke up at 28, are pulled back into each other’s lives. Waiting for Gyeongdo also features an ensemble cast including Lee El, Lee Joo Young, Kang Ki Doong, and Jo Min Guk, and is already generating strong buzz as Park Seo Joon’s big return to the rom-com genre.
Doctor X: Age of the White Mafia
Shifting from her emotional performance in Queen of Tears, Kim Ji Won will next be seen in Doctor X: Age of the White Mafia, a dark, noir-style medical thriller set to release in 2026. This drama marks her first medical role since 2016’s Descendants of the Sun. Kim plays Gye Soojung, a prodigious surgeon who voluntarily exiles herself from the medical world after a devastating incident. Now, she returns to challenge the corrupt medical system using only her unmatched surgical skill. With themes of revenge, justice, and redemption, Doctor X positions Kim Ji Won at the center of a high-stakes narrative that is expected to showcase her depth as a leading actress.
Bloodhounds 2
While fans eagerly await his lead role in Waiting for Gyeongdo, Park Seo Joon will also make a special appearance in Bloodhounds 2, the sequel to the popular action-thriller series. Though details of his role are still under wraps, his reunion with Woo Do Hwan and director Kim Joo Hwan, his collaborators in The Divine Fury, has heightened anticipation.
