The Heavy Hitters

The Remarried Empress (Disney+/Hulu, November 4 premiere with early September marketing push) — Starring Shin Min-a, Ju Ji-hoon, Lee Jong-suk, and Lee Se-young, this epic fantasy K-drama is adapted from a chart-topping Naver webtoon about Empress Navier, whose husband divorces her for a slave. What follows is a sweeping tale of revenge, romance, and palace intrigue. Disney+ is calling it their most expensive K-drama ever.

The Gentlemen Season 2 (Netflix, September 3) — Guy Ritchie's hit series is back, and Netflix already ordered Season 3 before Season 2 even dropped. If you loved the first season's blend of British crime and dark comedy, this is a no-brainer.

The Scandal (Netflix, September 18) — Son Ye-jin and Ji Chang-wook lead this period romance based on the 2003 Korean film Untold Scandal. Set in the Joseon era, it's a dangerous love game between a brilliant woman and Korea's greatest playboy. Expect this to dominate Netflix's global charts.
