Korean films and web shows have fans from across the globe. Even many of our Indian films are inspired by Korean dramas.
Veteran Movie Astrologer cum Business Transformation Expert, “As India locked down for the last two years, locals turned to Korean dramas, leading to a jump in the sales of Korean food, makeup, and music.

Oscar-winning movies like Parasite have spiked the growth of K-dramas in India. In addition, to cater to a large audience, the Korean Entertainment industry has also dubbed the dramas into various languages.”

The pandemic era affected many things in society and continues to reveal diverse characteristics and interests of individuals; some found time away from their busy routines to examine their inner selves, while others had an excuse to look at the world more closely. With it comes the rise of OTT platforms and the global appetite for web programs. Not to mention the fact that the Korean entertainment sector has long dominated the OTT powerhouse Netflix and continues to do so despite the Hollywood frenzy.
