In the majority of K-Dramas, two episodes are aired every week but in very few cases, it is only once a week. For viewers used to two episodes a week, having only one episode is definitely painful. The wait for the next episode seems longer. In the upcoming K-Dramas starting in June, there are quite a few dramas with only one episode a week. You better know about it before they start, so here they are.
1. “Penthouse: War in Life 3” (SBS) - Every Friday from June 4
“Penthouse: War In Life” with Lee JiAh, Kim SoYeon, and Eugene is back for a third season. The first two seasons have been extremely popular in Korea and the season three is highly awaited.
