The behind-the-scenes drama of this dark, supernatural tale is almost as interesting as the plot itself. In the show, people are told by mysterious creatures when they are going to die, which opens the door to a whole host of moral crises, fears, and struggles against the inevitable. In real life, Season 2 was delayed from even being announced, as they had to replace the lead actor after a real-life drug scandal. But now it has been confirmed that Season 2 will be released on Netflix in 2024.

5. A Killer Paradox

This brand new adaptation of a webtoon has many people excited. A young man learns that he has the supernatural ability to see evil in others. He decides to use this power to become a vigilante and seek justice. It may sound like a simple premise, but there are a lot of underlying moral and ethical issues at work here. There is no doubt that this show is going to be something special.

6. The 8 Show

This thriller was inspired by Mr. Beast, a well-known YouTuber who is also credited with the idea of turning another popular K-drama, Squid Game, into a reality series. He first brought the concept to YouTube, which Netflix then turned into a show. And now the exact same thing has happened with The 8 Show. It centers on 8 characters who compete in a reality game series called Money Game. It sounds like a similar basis to Squid Game, but we will have to wait and see.

7. Chicken Nugget
