Europeans are waking up to the trash that is American TV and moving on to kdramas.

>The rapid rise of Korean drama in Europe is entering a new phase, shifting from streaming success toward local adaptation and co-development, executives said during a Mip London session examining the genre’s growing regional impact.

>Speaking at “The Rise of K-Drama in Europe,” Jinhee Lee, marketing manager at CJ ENM, said Korean series have seen “a very clear rise, not just in global visibility, but in actual regional performance, as a strong and sustained engagement within individual markets as well.”

>Europe has become a key expansion territory, Min said, with more than 30 Korean drama titles now available on Prime Video in the U.K., while CJ ENM has also launched Korean series on major French broadcasters.

>Siljedahl said the appeal of Korean dramas lies in their originality and genre blending. “The concepts are so original… a lot of genre mashups, which is really exciting,” she said, noting that many story ideas feel unlike those typically developed in Western markets.

K-pop and K-dramas are pure slop aimed at teenage girls.

Kdramas are just live action anime romcoms

Why do Koreans all look like that? I looked at a lot of Korean interviews and they all have the same slant eyed moonfaced look, or when they are sometimes pretty they all look the same (uncanny valley) with obvious surgery. There is literally no diversity, which of course it's a monoethnic country, but people should at least look slightly different.

Hope you like more Indians and black people in your internationally financed k-dramas, anon.

As a European, I'm not watching kdramas until they start including WMAF storylines.
I can't take Asian men seriously.

>somehow try to make it about Americans

Obsession.

>>218335609
K-drama is pure fucking trash though, but it's trash despite not being forced to be trash. It's like a worse version of all the awful soaps they used to air, with uglier, more autistic people.
>>
>>218335609
K dramas are 90% unwatchable, and I'm being kind. Not to mention subbed TV will never be popular, and dubbed gooks are just comical.

People around the world crave entertainment that isn’t certified kosher.

is this what Europe wants?

Wow yeah I wonder

>>218337560
I mean this is clearly comedic. Mutt dogshit would make it a moral lesdon about how being a woman is a social construct or some shit.

>>218335609
Korean shows are made for women

>>218336318
Yeah the lack of diversity is what makes k shows so comfy, even Scandinavian shows has blacks and browns

Korean guys are good looking so whites don't mog them as hard as other asians

>>218335609
i haven't "consumed" k-anything since the last time I shopped at K-mart, and don't really think it's geared towards me, so i'm not gonna watch or listen to any of it. the k pop girls aren't that hot to me
good bye

How can you sit there and call yourselves white supremacists only to turn around and fetishize Asian culture

Hilarious given that their shit is even more pozzed than what America produces.
>>
TV dramas are watched by women and before K-dramas is was Turkdramas and before that it was Mexidramas

Yes, but when will Koreans come home, come home to professional wresslin'?

I’m not super into kdrama, but My Mister probably is my top show in the past several years. Really, really loved it. Haven’t really had a slow-burn show grip me like that since The Americans, and that show could be hit or miss sometimes.
I think it has just been nice having some good, down-to-earth drama that isn’t loaded with cynicism, sarcasm and negativity. Or super heroes. Or niggers.

There are no joggers in k media

>>218339955
They're even more "diverse" than American shows, literally 0% whites.

>>218339955

How to talk about nigger fatigue without calling it nigger fatigue.

Honestly I wish 4chan had chosen a better name for this, because I think it's a very real and important phenomenon. I'm more koreaboo than probably 99% or people that are not bored middle aged women that don't mind subtitles, but escaping the tyranny of "diversity" is one of my main motivations why I would pick a kdrama over any modern "American" slop. Better to watch a non-hateful non-propagandist monoculture of someone else, that aren't bad looking to boot, rather than watch my own being destroyed and spit on.

This, normalfags will never admit this is why they like k shit or Japan, no nigs or spics or jew propaganda.

>>218340411
Whiter than you.

>NOOO YOU CANT HAVE THAT THREAD ABOUT A MOVIE WITH A FUN WEBM BUT YOU CAN HAVE 200 KDRAMA THREADS AND WEIRD SPAM ELSEWHERE ABOUT BUGS
kek be less fucking obvious

>>218341222
Japan is a multicultural country, there's plenty of Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese and other diasporas living there as permanent residents, and that's without counting minorities like the Ainu and Okinawans that have lived on the Japanese archipelago for centuries.
I'm sure normalfags' love of Japan has nothing to do with its unique (non-Western) culture, excellent public services and myriad tourist attractions.

Euros loved Bon Appetit Your Majesty apparently
>>
>>218341982
>Euros
It was probably that one Euro:
>During the 2025 APEC CEO Summit, Laurence de Barbois, the CEO of GS1's wife, remarked that she had become interested in Korean cosmetics, K-beauty, and the Korean lifestyle through watching K-dramas, noting Bon Appetit, Your Majesty as the most recent series she had watched.[43]
Other than that it impossible to know who watched the series.

anime is better
