Korean pop culture, in numbers

Lee El: movies and TV shows on the Netflix charts

Lee El appears in 8 Korean titles (4 TV, 4 film) that reached a Netflix weekly top 10 somewhere in the world. Together those titles took 342 chart places in 63 countries. The one that travelled furthest is Yaksha: Ruthless Operations, which charted in 61 of them.

It is not one title. The largest, Yaksha: Ruthless Operations, is 143 of 342 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: Yaksha: Ruthless Operations. The places are spread over 63 countries — most of the Netflix map. The charting runs from 2021 to 2025.

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. Lee El has other credits that are not here, and we cannot tell you how many.

What is Lee El's zodiac sign?

Lee El was born on 1982-08-26, which places Lee El under Virgo. 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.
