Schedule-first. Drama-true.
The most accurate English-language source for Korean drama programming schedules, finale dates, and broadcaster lineups.
Why this site exists
If you watch K-dramas internationally, you've probably asked: "When does this drama actually end?" or "What else airs on tvN Mondays this month?"
Existing English K-drama sites focus on user reviews (MyDramaList), wiki-style articles (AsianWiki), news (Soompi), or episode recaps (Dramabeans). All of them either skip broadcast scheduling entirely or treat it as a secondary, crowd-sourced afterthought — premiere dates shift silently, finale dates are guessed, casting changes go untracked.
Korean Drama Calendar fills that gap with structured, monthly-verified programming data.
What we track
- Broadcaster lineups across MBC, SBS, KBS1, KBS2, JTBC, tvN, ENA, TV Chosun
- Time-slot programming — Mon-Tue / Wed-Thu / Fri-Sat / Sat-Sun / Daily Series
- Premiere dates from industry programming records
- Finale dates auto-calculated from
episode count × weekly broadcast pattern— a method no other English site applies systematically - Cast, directors, writers, production companies
- OTT streaming availability (Netflix, Disney+, Viki, Tving, Wavve, Coupang Play)
- Monthly changelog — every casting change, schedule shift, and lineup substitution between cycles
How we differ
| Capability | MDL | AsianWiki | Soompi | KDC |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Verified finale dates | crowd-sourced | crowd-sourced | — | auto-calc |
| Slot competition view | — | — | — | first |
| Monthly changelog | — | — | — | monthly |
| All broadcasters in one view | filter-only | category list | freeform | matrix |
We don't try to compete with MyDramaList on reviews or Dramabeans on recaps. We do one thing — accurate, structured scheduling — better than anyone else in English.
Operating principles
- Monthly verification — lineup data is refreshed every month against current industry programming records.
- Self-written synopses — never translated verbatim from Korean source material. Plot beats are extracted and re-written in English to respect copyright.
- Source generalization — we don't reveal the specific commercial origin of our lineup data; we cite "industry programming records" as our umbrella source.
- English-only public surface — Korean titles are referenced for searchability but never the primary content.
- No paywall, no login, no tracking beyond GA4 — supported by display advertising starting in Phase 2.
