2) Somebody (2022)
Gather up, fans of Black Mirror - Somebody is among the best K-horror shows for you! While the show is a crime thriller, it has elements of horror. The story follows the journey of Kim Sum, who finds herself right in the centre of a murder case thanks to an app she developed.
Sum develops an app called "Somebody" to interact with people anonymously, as she has social difficulties that are partly a result of her Asperger's syndrome. However, when a murder takes place and her app is closely involved in the case, her life changes completely.
Somebody also explores a secondary theme - the love story brewing between Kim Sum and Sung Yun-oh, an architectural designer who carries a dark secret with him. The show spans 8 episodes and is available to stream on Netflix.
3) The Silent Sea (2021)
The Silent Sea is among the best K-horror shows for anybody who loves shows involving space. The use of space as its setting already adds a sense of eeriness to a show, and when you throw an intriguing story into the mix, it makes for the perfect show to binge.
The Silent Sea follows the story of a space exploration team who are looking to retrieve samples from a now-abandoned hub on the moon. One of the main characters, Doctor Song Ji-an, however, is on a quest to understand why the hub was abandoned in the first place, so that she can get some answers as to what happened to her sister, who was one of the researchers there.
Released back in 2021, you can watch The Silent Sea on Netflix.
4) The Master's Sun (2013)
