From chart-topping music to groundbreaking dramas, the Hallyu wave, also known as the Korean wave, has taken the world by storm. The trend of Korean entertainment and culture is so contagious that supporters continue to grow rapidly around the world. From learning hangul for fun to wearing hanbok as a costume, it has become safe to say that many Nigerians are Korean by culture or practice. The Hallyu wave has powerfully crossed the continents.

The most affordable way to get on the Hallyu bandwagon is to go the K-drama or K-pop route. After all, getting on a plane to Seoul in 2024 costs millions of naira. However, listening to Rosé’s ATP, Lisa’s Moonlit Floor, or even Jennie’s Mantra only costs you a few megabytes.

Whether you’re a longtime K-drama fan or someone just looking to delve into the Korean entertainment space, here are some November dramas you should consider:
