In January, Netflix is adding three new k-dramas to its catalog. And three other Korean series will be entitled to new episodes throughout the month. Here is the program, between melodramatic love stories and horrific stories.

It is the love story between a psychology student and a student, a brilliant violinist despite her deafness, who can only communicate using Japanese sign language. Stories of love and friendship, over 11 episodes.
