Here's everything you should stream in June
In the blink of the eye, we're already halfway through the year. As June rolls around, the entertainment scene is heating up, with a slate of exciting releases all queued up and ready to go. It seems as though every fan-favourite series is coming back this month, and the first on our list is, of course, the third season of Squid Game . Despite being devastated by the loss of his friend, Gi-hun has no choice but to press on as the Front Man plots his next move. The deadly games must continue, as the final chapter brings the most-watched Netflix series of all time to a close.
Next Up: the return of The Bear . With our favourite team of chefs back in the kitchen, Season 4 is all about deciding what is worth hanging on to. As Sydney deliberates whether to stay at the restaurant or to take up Adam's offer to be his new chef de cuisine, Carmy will have to figure out a way for the restaurant to start making a profit soon—especially in the aftermath of The Chicago Tribune's review.
As for other options to consider? There's Apple TV+'s spunky period drama The Buccaneers, which sees Leighton Meester joining the cast for Season 2. There's also the return of Ginny and Georgia , which picks up after Georgia was arrested for murder at her own wedding last season.

As Season 3 comes around, the mother-daughter duo will have to brace themselves for the trial, as Georgia figures out how to wiggle her way out of this situation.

3 / 6 The Buccaneers Season 2
The fun-loving young Buccaneers might have caused a scene when they were first introduced to rigid 1870s London society in Season 1, but they're no longer the outsiders now. In fact, they're practically running England, with Nan as the most influential woman in the country, Conchita being the heroine to a wave of young American heiresses, and Jinny on every front page. With the Buccaneers reunited and Leighton Meester joining the cast, Season 2 is set to be a wild ride of romance, desire and rivalry.

No reprieve on tariffs for Vietnam: US commerce chief Lutnick
[WASHINGTON] Washington will not reciprocate even if Hanoi removes all tariffs on American goods, according to US Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick, as he said Vietnam re-exports a significant volume of Chinese products to the US. 'Absolutely not, absolutely not. That would be the silliest thing we could do,' Lutnick said when Republican Senator John Kennedy asked him whether the US will respond in kind if Vietnam decides to eliminate all tariffs and trade barriers against American imports, and calling a potential agreement like that 'a terrible deal'. Lutnick added that Vietnam exported US$125 billion in goods to the US while only importing US$12.5 million in worth of American products, without specifying a period. 'They buy US$90 billion from China, then they mark it up and send it to us. So it's just a pathway of China to us,' Lutnick said, though he suggested there might be some room for negotiations if Vietnam decides to stop re-exporting Chinese goods to the US. A number of US brands, including Apple and Nike, have manufacturing partners in Vietnam. Often these suppliers import materials and parts from China and conduct the final assembly in Vietnam. These American companies could be impacted if President Donald Trump eventually decides to slap stiff tariffs on the Asian nation. Vietnam exported US$136.6 billion to the US in 2024 compared to US$13.1 billion in American imports, according to the Office of the US Trade Representative. That surplus of US$123.5 billion set up the South-east Asian nation for levies of 46 per cent under US President Donald Trump's reciprocal tariffs, among the highest imposed on US trading partners. Those import taxes have been temporarily reduced to 10 per cent, with a Jul 9 deadline to strike an agreement with the US. Washington has sent Hanoi tough requests for tariff talks, including demanding the Asian nation cut its reliance on materials and components from China, Reuters reported earlier this week. BLOOMBERG

TV & Film Picks: Nine Puzzles, Our Unwritten Seoul, Lost In Starlight
(Clockwise from left) Park Bo-young in Our Unwritten Seoul, Kim Da-mi and Son Suk-ku in Nine Puzzles, and Lost In Starlight features the voices of Kim Tae-ri and Hong Kyung. PHOTOS: NETFLIX, DISNEY+ Nine Puzzles Disney+ Those who love solving puzzles will enjoy this cerebral crime thriller, which has become Disney+'s most-viewed South Korean title globally in 2025 – just nine days after the show's May 21 premiere. Kim Da-mi is Yoon E-na, a kooky crime profiler on the trail of a serial killer who leaves behind puzzle pieces at the crime scenes. Joining her in the cat-and-mouse game is Son Suk-ku's cynical detective Kim Han-saem. They may butt heads, but both are determined to catch the potential mastermind behind a decade-old cold murder case. If bingeing on Nine Puzzles is not enough, viewers can try their hand at solving crimes inspired by the series at the Nine Puzzles: Decoded interactive escape room experience. Find hidden clues and crack codes, and receive a personalised keepsake at the end of the nine challenges. The Nine Puzzles: Decoded pop-up is at Plaza Singapura (B2-17/18) until June 10. Entry is free, from 3 to 9pm on weekdays and 11am to 10pm on weekends. Our Unwritten Seoul Netflix With only four episodes in since its debut on May 24, Our Unwritten Seoul has already claimed the third spot on Netflix's global top 10 non-English shows chart. In the coming-of-age K-drama, South Korean actress Park Bo-young plays identical twins Yu Mi-ji and Yu Mi-jae, who happen to be polar opposites. Portraying two unique characters is already a challenge. Yet, the premise sees the sisters swopping identities, so Park is technically tasked to bring four distinctive personas to life. Elder twin Mi-jae works in a government agency in Seoul. Eager to please and always striving to be the best, the submissive woman falls from grace after a workplace incident and becomes a victim of office bullying. Meanwhile, bubbly and assertive Mi-ji lives in the countryside with their single mother and ailing grandmother. The over-achieving Mi-jae is favoured over the aimless Mi-ji, but the younger twin is the quiet pillar of strength in the family. Our Unwritten Seoul also stars K-idol Jinyoung from boy band Got7 as the twins' neighbour and Mi-ji's love interest. The 12-episode series about finding oneself is a slow-burner, and it works purely because of Park's versatile performance. Lost In Starlight 98 minutes, Netflix Lost In Starlight features the voices of Kim Tae-ri and Hong Kyung. PHOTO: NETFLIX Set in a futuristic Seoul, Lost In Starlight follows astro-scientist Nan-young and musician Jay's budding romance. Their relationship is put to the test when Nan-young gets accepted into a space programme that will take her to Mars. Can the star-crossed lovers make it through space and time, and achieve their dreams? These are some questions raised by South Korean film-maker Han Ji-won in this animated film. Oscar-winning South Korean director Bong Joon-ho praised Lost In Starlight as 'a visual masterpiece that takes you around the universe' in a statement accompanying the film's global release on May 30. Lost In Starlight is Netflix's first South Korean animation, and features the voices of award-winning actress Kim Tae-ri as Nan-young and actor Hong Kyung as Jay. Incidentally, both Kim and Hong first starred together in the acclaimed K-horror series Revenant (2023).
