Korean drama fans get to watch even more Kdrama on Viu platforms this month. Check out some of the shows showing below.
1. Sky Castle
Sky Castle is a comic satirical drama about rich families living in a private luxury condo community. In this exclusive neighbourhood, only wealthy doctors and law school professors live here. The story describes the ins and outs of how upper-class parents ruthlessly secure the successes of their families and their materialistic desires.
2. Lie After Lie
Ji Eun Su (Lee Yoo Ri) is a woman who appears to have it all. Married into a super-rich family, she assumes that the rest of her life will be an easy ride.
But when her husband is murdered, she is sent to prison – with a court finding her guilty of killing her spouse. However, this will be no straightforward jail sentence: She is pregnant, and gives birth to a baby girl while still behind bars.
The child is taken away from her and given to foster parents, with her adoptive father Kang Ji Min (Yeon Jung Hoon), a kind-hearted, justice-loving journalist. When Kang Ji Min finds himself alone and taking sole care of the young girl, Ji Eun Su – now free from prison – concocts a plan that she believes will reunite her with her daughter.
She will find a way to win Kang Ji Min’s heart – and become her own daughter’s stepmother. But the truth has a way of coming out...and if it does, how will her new family react?
3. Sweet Munchies
Nestled comfortably in a quiet little corner of Seoul, lies an odd little late-night restaurant, where the customers are given free reign when it comes to their drinks, but their food is chosen and prepared by the owner, Park Jin Sung (Jung Il Woo).
