#CulturePH - A New Kind of Magic Is Coming to Netflix This October
Mark your calendars for October 3—because something whimsical, dark, and wildly entertaining is about to land on Netflix. Genie, Make a Wish isn’t your typical fairy tale. It’s a genre-bending fantasy that flips the script on everything you thought you knew about genies, wishes, and the people who make them.
At the heart of the story is Genie, played by the ever-charismatic Kim Woo-bin (Black Knight, Officer Black Belt). But don’t expect a blue puff of smoke and a cheerful wish-granter. This Genie is a Satan—yes, you read that right—whose job is to tempt and corrupt humans with three wishes. He’s eccentric, naive, and freshly awakened after a thousand-year nap, making his return to the human world both hilarious and unsettling.Enter Ka-young, portrayed by Suzy (Doona!, Start-up), a woman who’s anything but ordinary. Raised by her grandmother and adored by her village, Ka-young has it all—beauty, brains, and wealth. But beneath the surface lies a cold, emotionless persona that makes her the perfect foil to Genie’s chaotic energy. Their dynamic promises sparks, surprises, and maybe even a little soul-searching.
The cast is rounded out by a stellar lineup: Ahn Eun-jin (Goodbye Earth, The Good Bad Mother) brings mystery as Mi-joo; Noh Steve Sang-hyun (Pachinko, Love in the Big City) plays Genie’s rival and brother, Soo-hyun; Ko Kyu-phil (The Fiery Priest, Veteran) adds intrigue as Sayyid, Genie’s assistant who’s secretly a black jaguar; and Lee Zoo-young (The 8 Show, Believer 2) portrays Min-ji, Ka-young’s only friend.
With its unique blend of fantasy, dark humor, and emotional depth, Genie, Make a Wish is shaping up to be one of the most talked-about releases of the season. Whether you're into supernatural twists or character-driven drama, this series promises to deliver something truly unforgettable.
