In the first moments of the sci-fi horror series Parasyte: The Grey, a spore from who knows where falls from the sky. It bounces gently onto the ground as it lands, looking like a squishy toy you’d get from a gumball machine. Then a tentacle sprouts out, slithers toward the nearest person, jumps right into their brain — and creates a tentacled creature that endangers everyone in sight.
The series from director Yeon Sang-ho follows the aftermath when one too many extraterrestrial larvae flop onto Earth in an attempt to take over humankind. As a powerful team called the Grey work to eradicate the threat by any means necessary, one woman must coexist with the parasite that lives inside her. Based on the Japanese manga Parasyte, the Korean series stars Jeon So-nee, Koo Kyo-hwan, and Lee Jung-hyun.

Netflix unveiled the trailer for upcoming Korean sci-fi series Parasyte: The Grey today.
Helmed by Train to Busan director Yeon Sang-ho, Parasyte: The Grey follows Su-in (played by Jeon So-nee), a young woman caught in a war between humans and parasitic creatures.

The original Parasyte manga by Hitoshi Iwaaki is considered to be a seinen classic. The series about an invasion of strange alien parasites became a hit with readers around the world, and the subsequent anime adaptation also became a major hit, being lauded as one of the best seinen anime in history. And while we saw a two-part live-action movie adaptation of the series, Netflix has – as we know – decided to take the live-action aspect to another level with Parasyte: The Grey, with the series just releasing its first full trailer.
Parasyte: The Grey is an upcoming South Korean adaptation of Iwaaki’s manga, which is going to be set in Soul and will retell the story of the manga from a different perspective. It is unknown whether this is actually a canon spin-off or just a different take on the story, but it certainly has us excited. As we’ve said,...

Currently revelling in the success of recently-uploaded Don Lee-starring film “Badland Hunters” and already teasing the second season of “Squid Game,” Netflix has unveiled a major slate of Korean films and series for 2024.
In August last year, Netflix publicly committed to investing $2.5 billion on Korean content over the next four years. That reflected both Netflix’s position as the country’s leading streamer, with an estimated 6.5 million subscribers, and its adopted role as one of the biggest exporters of Korean film and TV content.
“We were able to make this [investment] decision because we have great confidence that the Korean creative industry will continue to tell great stories,” said the streamer’s co-chief Ted Sarandos at the time of the spending commitment.
The Tuesday reveal is a mix of: first-look images and updates for previously announced projects (including the retitled Park Chan-wook-produced film “Uprising” and the second season...

Picture: Hellbound season 2 is coming to Netflix in 2024
There are many K-dramas to look forward to on Netflix in 2024 and to celebrate the New Year, we’ve selected a handful of K-dramas we’re most excited to watch on Netflix this year.
2023 was a solid year for K-dramas on Netflix. We’re hoping 2024 will be an equally strong year for the streaming service, with several new and exciting movies and shows on the way. Predicting what’s going to be popular and what’s going to flop is almost an infallible task. However, we can undoubtedly showcase all of the K-dramas for which we are most excited so far.
Squid Game and All of Us Are Dead are omitted from the list below, as we’re not expecting to see them released on Netflix until sometime in 2025.
Parasyte: The Grey (Season 1) N
Episodes: 6*

When Heroes Fly is leaving Netflix – Picture: Netflix
A New Year is just around the corner. Once again, we can make a feature from all the Netflix Originals currently set to depart the service globally or in select regions throughout January 2024.
If you’re wondering why some Netflix Originals are leaving Netflix – you wouldn’t be alone. In recent years, we’ve seen a slew of Netflix Originals depart the service and this mostly comes down to how Netflix licenses titles (particularly a lot of its earlier Originals). In some cases, Netflix simply picked up the international rights for certain series and movies for a fixed period. In these cases, calling them Netflix Exclusives is probably more appropriate, but it is what it is.
All of these movies, series and specials will soon be listed on our master list of every Netflix Original that has departed the service.
