Netflix Korea is celebrating its 10th anniversary with Netf-Janchi, a free two-day fan festival running October 24 and 25 at Oil Tank Culture Park in Seoul. Tickets for the in-person event disappeared across two Naver Booking rounds in September and October, and the festival's biggest stage moments will be livestreamed worldwide for everyone who missed out.

The centerpiece is the "What Next?" stage and finale performance on Saturday, October 24, where Netflix will put the stars of six of its most anticipated upcoming Korean titles in front of fans. Netflix announced the festival lineup through its official Korean channels, and the headline stages will stream live on the Netflix Korea YouTube channel, CHZZK and TikTok Live.

The festival marks a full decade since Netflix launched in South Korea in January 2016, a run that turned Korean series and films into some of the streamer's biggest global draws. More than 210 Korean titles have reached Netflix's global Top 10 in that span, headlined by phenomena like Squid Game, and Netf-Janchi is built as a thank-you to the fans who powered that rise — part anniversary celebration, part launchpad for what comes next. Here is everything confirmed for the weekend so far:

The "What Next?" Stage: Six Upcoming Titles in the Spotlight

The "What Next?" lineup spans the full range of Netflix Korea's next wave: a returning zombie hit, a live-action take on Korea's biggest webtoon property, a new fantasy from the writers of Hotel Del Luna, an auteur film fresh off a Venice prize, a period drama and a werewolf romantic comedy. The stars of all six titles will appear together on the Netflix stage on Saturday night, with first looks expected as each production takes its turn in the spotlight.

  • All of Us Are Dead Season 2 — Park Ji-hu, Yoon Chan-young, Cho Yi-hyun and Lomon return, joined by Roh Jae-won, Lee Min-jae, Kim Si-eun and Yoon Ga-i. The zombie drama's cast and creators are confirmed to appear; filming wrapped in February ahead of an expected 2027 release.

  • Solo Leveling — Byeon Woo-seok stars as Sung Jin-woo, the weakest hunter in Korea who gains the power to level up without limit, with Han So-hee as Cha Hae-in, Korea's only female S-rank hunter. The live-action fantasy-action adaptation of the hit web novel and webtoon began filming in May.

  • Grand Galaxy Hotel — Lee Do-hyun plays Eun Ha, the hotel's new owner, with Shin Si-ah as its only human employee and Lee Soo-hyuk as a free-spirited grim reaper. The fantasy drama is written by the Hong Sisters of Hotel Del Luna and Alchemy of Souls fame and directed by Oh Choong-hwan.
