Nice to Not Meet You to Debut on Prime Video in November

Prime Video has announced the premiere date for Nice to Not Meet You, an upcoming Korean rom-com series starring global star Lee Jung-jae (Squid Game, The Acolyte, Hunt) and acclaimed actress Lim Ji-yeon (The Glory, The Tale of Lady Ok, Lies Hidden in My Garden).

Blending a witty behind-the-scenes look at the entertainment world with heartfelt romance, Nice to Not Meet You follows the unlikely connection between Lim Hyeon-jun (Lee Jung-jae), a typecast actor yearning for a fresh start in melodramas, and Wi Jeong-sin (Lim Ji-yeon), a decorated political journalist suddenly reassigned to the entertainment desk.

What begins as a clash of personalities unfolds into a story full of charm, laughter, and unexpected chemistry. The series will premiere on November 3, with new episodes released every Monday and Tuesday, exclusively on Prime Video, in over 240 countries and territories.

Lee Jung-jae, following his breakout international success in Squid Game, portrays Hyeon-jun, a seasoned actor stuck in the role of Kang Pil-gu—the beloved protagonist of a hit detective series now heading into its fifth season.

While Hyeon-jun’s career is thriving, he dreams of breaking free from the mold and proving himself in a more emotionally rich role.

Lim Ji-yeon stars as Wi Jeong-sin, a hard-hitting journalist whose award-winning political coverage is abruptly sidelined. Relocated to entertainment reporting mid-investigation, Jeong-sin must navigate a world she never intended to join—only to find herself drawn into the orbit of the very actor she’s reluctant to cover.

Nice to Not Meet You is directed by Kim Ga-ram (Good Partner, Nevertheless) and written by Jung Yeo-rang (Doctor Cha), delivering a refreshing mix of humor, heart, and industry satire.

Nice to Not Meet You joins thousands of other shows and films available on the Prime Video catalogue, including Confidence Queen, Head Over Heels, Good Boy, The Divorce Insurance, Newtopia, No Gain No Love, and anime hits such as Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX, Jujutsu Kaisen 0, and Rorouni Kenshin.
