As the entertainment industry of South Korea continues its global spread, one of the upsides is getting to make headlines that would’ve seemed put together like a random title generator, and so we get TOP, Lil Yachty, and Martha Stewart all on a couch promoting Netflix’s Korean content as JENNIE’s “Like JENNIE” blares in the background at one point.
Honestly? Pretty great promo with the whole ‘you don’t have to speak it to love it’ tag.
Not sure if there’s a bigger example right now of the societal/cultural difference between South Korea and Western audiences than the fact that TOP has to carefully navigate being public and talking at all due to his drug stuff in his own country but Netflix makes him the Korean face of Korean content as a lovable memeable guy.

Also putting this here cause I still have a crush on Arden Cho and it’s tangentially related cause she voices some Korean animated K-pop thing or something. Plus, the One Piece is real.
