Whatever the reason, the 16-episode Korean drama _The Glory_ became a crowd favorite this year, and now ranks as the [fifth most popular non-English TV show ever on Netflix](https://top10.netflix.com/tv-non-english), joining the growing list of South Korea’s blockbuster offerings on the platform. After releasing the first batch of episodes in December last year, _The Glory_’s final eight episodes were among the [34 Korean titles](https://www.netflix.com/tudum/articles/korean-movies-shows-netflix-2023) that Netflix said it will release this year. It’s the streamer’s biggest line-up of Korean content to date, a testament to the unabated global popularity of South Korean entertainment. And it’s only upward from here: Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos met with South Korea’s President Yoon Suk-yeol in Washington in April and announced that the company will [invest $2.5 billion in the country for the next four years](https://about.netflix.com/ko/news/netflixkoreainvestment), including in the creation of new series, movies, and unscripted shows. **Read More:** [_How Netflix’s_ ](https://time.com/6261820/the-glory-netflix-true-story/)[The Glory](https://time.com/6261820/the-glory-netflix-true-story/)[ _Drew Inspiration From Real Stories of School Violence in Korea_](https://time.com/6261820/the-glory-netflix-true-story/) Netflix’s K-dramas have already been off to a great start this year, with a wide variety of genres available. Aside from _The Glory_’s heavy drama and social commentary, viewers have also raved over the dystopian world of delivery men in _Black Knight_, the adorable mother-son duo in slice-of-life drama _The Good Bad Mother_, and the ever reliable fake-dating trope in romantic comedy _Love to Hate You_. But 2023 is far from over, and Netflix still has a bevy of other titles in the pipeline. Below, TIME selects the most anticipated titles, listed in no particular order, all of which will be available to watch on Netflix USA. ## **_Bloodhounds_** ### _Release date: June 9_ Based on a Naver webtoon of the same name, this action thriller revolves around two young boxers who enter the world of loan sharks.

The show’s title refers to a team of soldiers called “deserter pursuit,” who are tasked with tracking down and capturing military deserters. Despite only having six episodes, the first season deeply [resonated](https://www.scmp.com/week-asia/politics/article/3148092/netflixs-dp-stirs-memories-south-korean-ex-soldiers-bullying) with former conscripts and even prompted [South Korea’s Ministry of Defense to issue a statement](https://koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/2021/09/08/entertainment/television/DP-Netflix-Kim-Botong/20210908145000722.html) that incidents of violence and abuse in the military were on the decline.
