More about Netflix's Screwballs
Screwballs first arrived on Netflix on February 23, 2025. The show has steadily climbed the streaming charts, placing at the top of Korea’s 'Today’s Top 10 Series'. It features a recurring lineup including Kim Sook, Hong Jin-kyung, Jo Se-ho, Jo Woo-jae, and Jang Woo-young.
Screwballs is a comedy show about being a little “off-track.” It’s seen as a follow-up to the KBS2 show Beat Coin, which ended due to budget cuts, even though it was well-received.
After the cancellation, the cast and crew moved to Netflix and created Screwballs. Jin from BTS will be joining the show, continuing the group’s connection—Jimin had also appeared on Beat Coin in a segment called Risky Invitation. Screwballs airs every Sunday at 5 PM KST on Netflix.
In other news, Jin will embark on his first solo world tour, the RunSeokjin Ep. Tour to support his musical endeavors. It will commence on June 28, 2025, in Goyang, South Korea. The tour will span multiple continents, concluding on August 10, 2025, in Amsterdam.
