Picture Credit: SBS Netflix has secured the international weekly streaming rights to the highly anticipated upcoming supernatural legal K-Drama, Phantom Lawyer, as part of its major deal struck with SBS. Coming to Netflix in March 2026, here is everything we know so far about the new series headlined by Yoo Yeon Seok and Esom. Phantom Lawyer (also known as Shin and Law Office or God and Law Firm) is an upcoming internationally licensed South Korean supernatural legal-comedy series. The drama is directed by Shin Jong Hun and penned by screenwriter Kim Chul Gyu. Planning producer Park Young Soo and producer Hong Sung Chang helm the production. The series is set to broadcast domestically on the South Korean network SBS before arriving weekly on Netflix for international audiences beginning March 13th, as confirmed by a notice on the show’s official Netflix page. What is the plot of Phantom Lawyer? Fans of Extraordinary Attorney Woo and The Uncanny Counter will love this quirky, feel-good show. It follows Sin I Rang, a clumsy and nervous lawyer who accidentally sets up shop in an old shaman’s house and suddenly starts seeing ghosts. When spirits with sad stories come to him for legal help, his bravery kicks in. The best part? When he works with these ghostly clients, they briefly “possess” him, making him act out their funny and dramatic personalities. Things get even crazier when he goes up against Han Na Hyeon, a cold, top-tier lawyer who has never lost a case, until she meets I Rang. At first, she thinks his ghost stories are ridiculous, but after seeing the spooky proof herself, she teams up with him. Together, they help these phantom clients get justice, and along the way, the icy Na Hyeon finally starts to warm up and heal her own emotional scars.
