Why are Korean dramas or movies so popular lately? They're all soulless.

so is modern america
Koreans can act. The sets don't look cheap. Compare this to the trash which is Japanese television.
Americas movie department has been so shit with its woke garbage and bad writing that the people turns to Korean films and anime to get away from that
Most people like to watch childish, non-threatening shit
>korean
Basically every other asian country shits on them.
You can't fool me OP, I know these things. I've picked up some insider knowledge despite the funny languages.
They're kinda like live action anime. The actors look nice, the sets look nice, the fashion is cute, the stories are comfy. Its an aesthetic.
Obviously this varies with genres but to most korean tv fans the typical korean drama is the romantic comedy/family dramas
I would say it's precisely because they are soulless corporate products. Same goes for k-pop. There are some normies that are so enmeshed in this modern anti-culture that they cannot handle anything else. Like those fat lunatics who only eat tater tots.
they dont force lgbt and interracial couples everywhere
People are sick of the US
Still better than anything made in the west after 2009
zoomer girls
Because Hollywood is shit, China killed Hong Kong, and Japan stopped trying
I bat they are still light-years ahead of present day american movies and series in terms of effort put into it and respect towards the audience
keep saying this lol. Japan also had capitulated to korean entertainment. Japanese convenience stores had been playing kpop songs for a while. Initially they also tried to downplayed it by saying that only female teens like them, but lo and behold.
>Why are Korean dramas or movies so popular lately?
They're not Netflix is an outlier and they get the shows cheap
>Americans calling anyone else soulless
I'm sorry, it's the truth. Korea is like a worse version of Japan.
Shills. Either that or the NPC meme is real
America is a worse version of Europe
South Korea is doing a fat job at selling itself to the western world, factually replacing Japan as the go to country for your Asian fix.
Japan is failing at keeping the pace in both technology and media production, the latter still being 100% dedicated to internal audience and basically attracting only weeaboos. Sk on the other had is proving to be better at making products more palatable for western audiences.
Netflix is dunking hard on this because after the success of Parasite (which basically jump started the whole thing) and Squid Game (which I liked but it's vastly overrated) they realized they could get competently made products (at least in terms of production values) for literal peanuts; and in fact now they're trying really hard to push that zombie shit as the next SG.
As for me, I'd rather have Korea making movies than China, but it doesn't mean that anything they meme you into watching will be actually worth your time.
tl;dr you still ain't see nothing, the 20s will be the rise of gooks
This original K-boos in Japan are 40-50 yo women. This then died down for a while and picked up again recently with BTS and stuff
>Japan is failing at keeping the pace in both technology and media production, the latter still being 100% dedicated to internal audience and basically attracting only weeaboos.
But Japan actually made kino stuff. Korea really hasn't.
korea made of top tier movies, parasite's director himself has made great ones long before that. also the point here is that japan hasn't been doing fucking shit in terms of relevance since the 90s, maybe early 2000s
Shoplifters was better than Parasite.
Kill yourself weaboo
can you read, nigger? I'm talking about relevance, not quality. no one watched fucking shoplifters, literally every normie on the planet knew the title parasite long before the oscar nominations
I loved shoplifters, don't get me wrong
Shut up and pay for your war crimes
my theory is they're pushing gook shit to prep americans, who are typically racist, especially against asians ("arr rook arike"), to root for korea when they assist us in the war with the chinks. obama told trump the "worst threat to america" is north korea, so expect us to start there as we encroach on chink space.
Japan already did actually.
