New Korean Dramas and Movies to Watch This July 2025
July 2025 is hoping to be packed with fresh Korean dramas and one huge fantasy movie fans have been waiting for. From intense legal stories to treasure hunts and even a world-ending fight for survival, there’s a lot dropping this month. Here’s the list.
Law and the City – Premieres July 5
If you love dramas with smart lawyers, friendship, and real-life struggles, this one’s for you. Law and the City follows five young lawyers working in the heart of Seoul. They’re all trying to make a name for themselves in the crazy world of law while dealing with their own personal drama behind the scenes.
Big names like Lee Jong-suk and Moon Ga-young lead the cast. It’s Lee Jong-suk’s first big role since his military service, and fans are hyped to see him back. Expect plenty of courtroom tension, late-night office talks, and that classic friends-turn-family vibe.
Catch it every Saturday and Sunday on tvN, with global viewers able to stream it on Disney+.
Low Life – Premieres July 16
Next up is Low Life, a gritty crime drama with a bit of humor mixed in. Set in the 1970s, it follows a street-smart con artist, Oh Gwan-seok, and his clueless nephew, Oh Hee-dong, as they chase after a hidden treasure. But this isn’t your typical treasure hunt, there’s betrayal, old-school gangster action, and lots of crazy twists.
Ryu Seung-ryong plays the experienced uncle, while Yang Se-jong brings some charm as the naive nephew. It’s packed with old-school Korean vibes, retro fashion, and high-stakes schemes. You can stream it worldwide on Disney+, with new episodes dropping every week.
Omniscient Reader: The Prophet – Hits July 23
Probably the most talked-about release this month is Omniscient Reader: The Prophet. This movie is based on the massively popular web novel Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint, and fans have been buzzing about it for months.
The story follows Kim Dok-ja, an ordinary office worker who suddenly finds himself inside the world of a novel he’s been reading. Now, the fate of humanity rests on him using everything he knows about the story to survive, and maybe change how it ends.
The cast is stacked. Ahn Hyo-seop plays Kim Dok-ja, Lee Min-ho takes on the role of Yoo Joong-hyuk, and there are appearances from BLACKPINK’s Jisoo, Chae Soo-bin, Nana, and more.
Release Dates:
South Korea and Taiwan – July 23

Singapore – July 31
North America – August 1

It can be recalled that the reality star became popular after showing on the dating reality show Love Island where he came in for 3 seasons but really made an impact in his second appearance, season 6.
And with his fans from there, he easily became a topic to know as he claimed the winner of Traitors season 4.
Gospel singer Busola Oke speaks out and shared that she has been suffering financially. She reveals that she is making a big consideration of stepping away from the music industry.
The singer revealed this during a TikTok live session where she spoke on her personal difficulties and situation in her life.
“Right now, I have no car, and I owe a lot of people. The last time I had a car was in 2020. I need to pay my debts. I struggle to pay for the hotel I stay at now. I need shelter and a car, even if it is a jalopy. The money I am supposed to use for food, I use it to take Uber around.”
