Our vote for 'most intriguing new premise' goes to this ENA drama. Photographer Seo Ki-joo runs a photo studio for ghosts. At night, he takes portraits of the deceased souls and listens as they tell the stories of their lives.

7. Queen of Tears

Number of Episodes: 16

Where to Watch: TvN, Netflix

Don't let the title fool you – this isn't a historical melodrama, but rather a contemporary story about a married couple falling in love again.

Hong Hae-in is the third-generation director of a massive conglomerate, and Baek Hyun-woo is her husband – as well as the conglomerate's legal director. Their marriage is on the rocks, and when a crisis brings everything to a head they must decide whether or not to find each other again.

8. Hide

Number of Episodes: TBA

Where to Watch: Coupang Play, JTBC

Based on Keeping Faith, a Welsh television series, Hide is a pulse-pounding mystery thriller. The show follows former prosecutor Na Moon-young, who left that career to start a legal firm with her husband. When he suddenly disappears, Moon-young is left trying to piece together the secrets of his disappearance.

There's not much we know yet about Hide – no word yet on how many episodes the show will have – but if it's anything like Keeping Faith there will be a lot of dark twists and turns on the road to the truth.
