10 Korean Dramas Landing in July 2026, and the Lineup Keeps Getting Bigger

July is shaping up to be a busy month for Korean drama fans, with 10 titles lined up across romance, family conflict, fantasy, and action. The slate includes stories about hidden identities, unresolved love, royal mysteries, and a sniper mom trying to keep her double life intact.

Several of the titles already have confirmed broadcast homes, while one remains listed as TBC. That mix gives the month a broad range of viewing options, from mainstream TV channels to streaming platforms such as Disney+ and Netflix.

1. The Husband

The Husband opens the month on 4 July and centers on Kang Tae Joo, a former neurosurgeon who now serves as a hospital director. On the surface, his life looks complete, but his marriage is falling apart as he faces an approaching divorce.

Things turn even darker when his wife is kidnapped by a criminal while the couple is in the middle of separating. The drama is set to air on KBS2.

2. Love in Sync

Also scheduled for 4 July, Love in Sync is a romantic comedy about Yoo Ji An, a top star who rejects empathy, and Cha Eun Hwan, a well-known psychologist carrying his own burdens. Their lives change after a supernatural phenomenon connects their feelings.

The series will stream on Disney+ and leans into both romance and an unusual emotional bond between the two leads.

3. Family Register

Family Register arrives on 6 July as a family melodrama built around Na Se Ri, who has been labeled since birth as a child who destroys families. The story also follows a woman fighting public prejudice, bad fate, and the struggle to rebuild her life.

The cast includes Han Go Eun, Jeon No Min, Jeon Seung Bin, Seo Do Young, Park Se Young, and Lim Ji Eun. MBC is handling the broadcast.

4. The Apartment Job

Set for 11 July on JTBC, The Apartment Job follows Geng Oasis and its leader Park Hae Kang, played by Ji Sung. He is running for president of a residents’ council in an apartment complex for a reason that is not entirely noble.

Hidden money inside the building is the real target, and the search eventually exposes corruption and other disturbing secrets. That mix of neighborhood politics and crime gives the series a more suspense-driven angle.

5. Dream to You

Dream to You is scheduled for 13 July on ENA and focuses on Woo Soo Bin and Joo Yi Jae, played by Hwang In Yeop and Hyeri. The story brings together a successful film director and a reporter who has started to forget her own dream.

The two revisit an unfinished film and a love story that never reached its ending. The drama also adds a time-jump element through the memory of their teenage ambition to become filmmakers.

6. The East Palace

The East Palace lands on 17 July with Nam Joo Hyuk, Roh Yoon Seo, and Cho Seung Woo leading the cast. Directed by Choi Jung Kyu, the drama follows Gu Cheon, who can cross into the world of ghosts to solve strange cases inside the royal palace.

He meets Saeng Gang, who can hear voices from another realm, and the two work together to uncover palace secrets. Netflix will carry the series.

7. Spooky in Love

On 18 July, Spooky in Love introduces Cheon Yeo Ri, a hotel heiress who looks perfect on the outside but hides a frightening secret. She can see ghosts, which makes her life far less glamorous than it seems.

She later crosses paths with Ma Gang Wook, a brilliant prosecutor played by Yang Se Jong who is committed to justice. Their unusual partnership grows into a romantic connection as they solve cases using their different abilities.

8. Love On The Menu

Love On The Menu, due on 25 July, returns to the romance of two former lovers who meet again eight years after their breakup. Kim Moo Jin, played by Ha Seok Jin, and Han Gyu Rim, played by Hani, step into new lives before their reunion changes everything again.

The drama is framed as a family romance, with the reunion opening a warmer chapter for both characters. It focuses on how time can soften a break and bring people back together in unexpected ways.

9. A Bona Fide Killer

A Bona Fide Killer closes July on 31 July with a darker action story about Yu Bo Na, played by Gong Hyo Jin. By day, she is a working mother and a sales team manager at Durumi Electronic, but she also lives as a legendary sniper known as Kingfisher.

Her husband, Kwon Tae Sung, played by Jung Jun Won, does not know about her hidden identity. MBC is set to air the series, which blends domestic life with high-stakes action.

10. My Idol, My Debut

My Idol, My Debut does not yet have a confirmed broadcast date, but it is part of the July lineup and will air on MBC+. The cast includes Q THE BOYZ, Lee Jin Hyuk, Hwang Ji Ah, Jung Ji Ahn, Nana WOOAH, Kaede tripleS, and AISA.

The story follows a fan who mysteriously travels back eight years and tries to prevent a tragic incident in the future. To change that fate, the character becomes an idol trainee and steps into a youth story shaped by time slip and K-pop stardom.
