We're quickly approaching a new month, and Netflix has already released its full list of shows and movies coming to the streaming platform in March 2024. Besides new Spanish content, we're also looking forward to all the new Korean shows and movies slated to be released next month.
It's still early in the year, and we've already seen so much great Korean content. We're talking K-Dramas such as The Bequeathed, Captivating the King, A Killer Paradox and Doctor Slump. We also saw the release of the Korean action flick Badland Hunters back in January.
While there won't be that many Korean shows and movies released in March, the ones slated to be released soon are definitely worth checking out. Below, we shared a list of all the new Korean content that's scheduled to drop on Netflix next month.
My Name is Loh Kiwan
Release date: March 1, 2024
If you're a fan of the well-known South Korean actor Song Joong-ki, you're going to want to see My Name is Loh Kiwan. Song Joong-ki stars as Loh Kiwan, a North Korean defector who relocates to Belgium to fulfill his mother's dying wish only to have a hard time obtaining refugee status. In a foreign country with nowhere to go, Kiwan tries his best to survive. It's not until a chance encounter with Marie, a former Belgian national shooting team member who is down on her luck, that Kiwan's life starts to turn around. Although they initially have a heated argument over Marie stealing Kiwan's wallet, they eventually begin to bond over shared experiences and emotions.
Choi Sung-eun plays the role of Marie, while Cho Han-cheul portrays Yoon Sung, Marie's concerned father.

Chicken Nugget
Release date: March 15, 2024
A show called Chicken Nugget is definitely work checking out. Imagine walking into a mysterious machine and being instantly turned into a chicken nugget. That's what happens to Min-ah in Netflix's Chicken Nugget, and her desperate father and admirer do everything they can to rescue and turn her back into a human. Kim You-jung, who is known for recently starring in the Netflix Korean drama My Demon, plays the role of Min-ah. The rest of the cast includes Ryu Seung-ryong as Choi Sun-man, Min-ah's father, Ahn Jae-hong as Ko Baek-joong, Min-ah's admirer, and Jung Ho-yeon as a top Korean culinary columnist.
Queen of Tears
Release date: March 9, 2024
I think we might already have the Korean rom-com of the year with the upcoming Korean series Queen of Tears. Talented writer Park Ji-eun, who is known for writing for the popular K-Drama Crash Landing You, wrote the scripts, so I know it's going to be an entertaining show to watch. Also, It's Okay to Not Be Okay star Kim Soo-hyun and Descendants of the Sun actress Kim Ji-won star in the leading roles, so we can expect some top-notch acting.
When the daughter of the wealthiest family in Korea marries an entry-level employee, everything seems to be going well for the two love birds. That's until they're officially married and time passes by. The love they initially shared seems to have gone away, and now they're on the verge of divorce. Can the love they once had be rekindled? That's what the queen of department stores Hong Hae-in and the prince of supermarkets Baek Hyun-woo are trying to figure out.
Will you be watching any of these Korean shows or movies on Netflix in March?
