just a couple of months back, The Silent Sea on Netflix is also making
headlines. Thus, we look at why Korean thrillers are gaining traction among the
international audience.


THE KOREAN WAVE ON NETFLIX

The Silent Sea also has a survival theme to it, which is not so far from that of
“Squid Game”. As K-Dramas might have cracked the code to an international
audience with thrillers, a surge of Korean thrillers like The Silent Sea on
Netflix shouldn’t come as a surprise.



Certain factors have combined beautifully for this phenomenon. The first one was
the pandemic, Korean content was always good, but people never had the time for
it. After the worldwide lockdown, there was a shortage of content that Korean
content has filled perfectly.

Second, Netflix provided a global platform for this content. From romcoms to
thrillers, you can now find any genre you wish to watch. Also, the success of
Korean movies like “Parasite” and “Train To Busan” has helped as people are
looking for Korean hidden gems on Netflix.


UPCOMING K-DRAMAS ON NETFLIX

Sensing the anticipation of viewers, Netflix has invested more and more in
Korean content. “Hellbound”, another K-Drama comprising eight episodes released
back in November. Netflix also forayed into Korean reality shows with the
premiere of “New World [https://www.netflix.com/title/81436207]” on November 20.

In January 2022, fans can expect “Juvenile Justice,” a courtroom drama to grace
their screens. A Korean romcom movie titled “Love and Leashes” will premiere in
February 2022. Netflix had announced these shows during its global fan event,
Tudum. Furthermore, a Korean remake
