In the grand buffet of global entertainment, Netflix has made the Korean drama table a lavish, all-you-can-eat affair this year. From the poetic melancholy of When Life Gives You Tangerines to the grounded charm of Our Unwritten Seoul or the energetic camaraderie of Resident Playbook, the streaming giant has kept viewers well-fed and thoroughly spoiled. Now, just when the community thought dessert was served, Netflix has decided to add an unexpected confection to the spread, Kiss Me for No Reason, one that promises mischief and swoons in equal measure.

The cast, plot, and release date of Kiss Me for No Reason will surely intrigue even the most seasoned K-drama devotee.

Mark your calendars, polish your streaming schedules, and perhaps warn your sleep cycle, Kiss Me for No Reason will arrive on Netflix in September 2025. In a display of perfect timing, the romantic-comedy will premiere simultaneously on SBS and the streaming service, allowing fans to binge without delay. Netflix’s well-timed collaboration with SBS ensures this series may just dominate living rooms, coffee shop chatter, and group chats before autumn leaves even think of falling.

Kong Ji Hyuk, the determined head of the intriguingly named Mother TF team at a baby products firm, expects spreadsheets and pacifiers, not unsolicited kisses from new hires. Yet Ko Da Rim, the freshly minted temporary employee, delivers one without warning, leaving him convinced he has wandered into scandalous territory. What he does not suspect is that her résumé comes with fiction involving a husband and child, concocted purely for a desk and a salary.

The ensuing chaos blends deception, workplace tension, and comedic misunderstanding in a way only a skilled cast could perfect for the plot.

Ahn Eun Jin will portray Ko Da Rim, bringing with her an impressive Netflix résumé that includes Resident Playbook, Goodbye Earth, The Good Bad Mother, Hospital Playlist, and Kingdom. She is also set for a supporting role in the forthcoming Genie, Make a Wish. Jang Ki Yong steps into the role of Kong Ji Hyeok, recognised for performances in The Atypical Family, My Roommate Is a Gumiho, and Hello Me, among others. In a strong year for Korean content on Netflix, especially with KPop Demon Hunters recently surpassing a record held by a major animated feature, this casting arrives with notable momentum.

The supporting ensemble features Kim Mu Jun, from Caster, as Kim Seon U, and Woo Da Vi, from Jeongnyeon: The Star Is Born, as Yoo Ha Yeong. The combination of established performers and promising talent appears carefully chosen to capture the series’ balance of humor, romance, and playful intrigue. With such a line-up, Kiss Me for No Reason seems well-poised to join Netflix’s growing roster of globally discussed Korean dramas.
