Korean pop culture, in numbers

Esom: movies and TV shows on the Netflix charts

Esom appears in 5 Korean titles (2 TV, 3 film) that reached a Netflix weekly top 10 somewhere in the world. Together those titles took 524 chart places in 88 countries. The one that travelled furthest is Kill Boksoon, which charted in 84 of them.

It is not one title. The largest, Kill Boksoon, is 225 of 524 chart places — a little under half — so at least one other title here is doing comparable work. At least one of these titles reached number one somewhere: Kill Boksoon. The places are spread over 88 countries — most of the Netflix map. The charting runs from 2023 to 2026.

This is a floor, not a filmography. It counts only Netflix top-10 charting titles that we have enough weekly data to publish a page for. Esom has other credits that are not here, and we cannot tell you how many.

What is Esom's zodiac sign?

Esom was born on 1990-01-30, which places Esom under Aquarius. This is worked out from the date, not read from anything.

We do not read star signs and make no claim about what one means. The sign is the segment of the sky the sun was passing through on that date, and that is the whole of it. We measured whether signs pair up in real K-pop groups and found nothing that chance would not give.

How old is Esom?

Esom was born on 1990-01-30, which makes Esom 36 on 2026-08-25.

We print the date as well as the number so this page still reads correctly after it goes stale. The age above is worked out for 2026-08-25 and nothing else.

293 Korean actors and singers were born in 1990 — the same year as Esom.

Where to go next

Everything on this Esom page is counted from Netflix’s published weekly country top 10s joined to Wikidata cast lists. It is a record of where Esom’s work travelled, not a ranking of Esom. This is a statistic, not a person.
