Here’s the whole story from CNN Life Pop Chronicles:
Korean dramas are hot right now.
Like K-pop, Korean TV series have found global success beyond Korea. So much so that Rakuten Viki, the largest streaming service for Asian content, is hosting its first-ever International K-Drama Day on November 29.
The popularity of such shows was helped in part by the astronomical success of Netflix’s “Squid Game” in 2021, which has even spurred a new reality series based on the show.
As part of the celebration, Rakuten Viki will be offering a number of popular K-Dramas above their paywall, so you can check out shows like “What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim,” “Strong Woman Do Bong Soon” and “Guardian: The Lonely and Great God.”

Interesting to see how many “new” subscribers they are able to attract. 😀

It looks like they’ll also have some contests available – not sure how they work, though!
