The slowly setting chill in the November air calls for a heartwarming K-drama cued up on your screen and a warm beverage (preferably something decadent like hot chocolate) in your hands. While you can enjoy the ongoing dramas that premiered in October, there are many new romantic ones to choose from this month.

Before the second season of Squid Game premieres in December, Gong Yoo fans can see him in another Netflix Original in November. The actor is starring in The Trunk, an adaptation of Kim Ryeo-ryeong’s novel. There are also familiar tropes, with a twist, in dramas like When The Phone Rings and Love Your Enemy. If you want to sort out your watchlist for the month, take a look at all the romantic Korean dramas we’re looking forward to streaming this month…
