Korean Entertainment is really hot! Love it.
NOMINATION
Maybe subdued for the entertainment industry. When South Korea wins on the World stage in baseball or football, they go crazy especially if that win comes against Japan.

I'm surprised he didn't harp on about a "certain island" in the Sea of Japan.

Fixed for you.

I don't really think Parasite was worthy of Best Picture. Squid Game for an Emmy, yes.

It helps that they can speak English - it helps in the promo circuits for the awards

All of this fanfare comes with no one really watches TV and the music that people make now days suck! Ok great win but why make it a nationalistic thing!

You can buy T-shirts and hoodies online emblazoned with 'The only drama I want is Korean with English Subtitles'. I might get one.
'Squid Game' isn't my thing but I've watched dozens of Kdramas over the years and am half way through one at the moment. I watch them far more than UK or US TV drama. I even exclaimed 'Aigoo!' the other day.
