by tccolb

With June now officially on our doorstep (already!), tvN announced a mid-year check-in for the second half of 2025’s drama lineup. And while love continues to be the name of this year’s game, it’s nice to see a mix of genres and settings, with blossoming romance across different generations and different times.

Currently, we have plenty to chew on about life, change, and growth, with both Second Shot at Love and Our Unwritten Seoul currently airing. The list below will soon follow in course, as we head deeper into June and the coming seasons:

Title: Head Over Heels

The supernatural webtoon-adaptation also stars her bestie Cha Kang-yoon (Resident Playbook) and ghost shaman Chu Ja-hyun (Unmasked).

In addition to the list above, tvN is expecting to release the following dramas later this year as well:
