A Korean film that reached a Netflix weekly top 10 in 11 of 93 markets, holding 14 chart places across 8 weeks between 2021-09-05 and 2025-06-08. Its best position anywhere was number 4.
What a place is. A place is one appearance in one country's weekly top 10. A title that sat at number 4 in Vietnam for three weeks holds three places there. Reach counts the countries a title appeared in at least once, out of 93.
We will not say, and neither can the chart. Netflix's country lists record that a title held a top-ten place in a country in a week. They do not record how many people watched it, what it cost, or what anyone expected of it — and those are the three things the words hit and flop are actually about.
What we can tell you is where it sits. Of the 559 Korean titles with a page here, 219 reached more markets than 8MM and 325 reached fewer. It travelled further than the typical Korean title that charted at all, which reached 2.
That is a position, not a verdict. A title can hold a hundred chart places in small markets and a title can hold four in the largest ones; the file does not say which of those a person means by success. You have the shape — the judgement is yours.
| 8MM | Median Korean title that charted | |
|---|---|---|
| Markets reached | 11 | 2 |
| Weeks on a chart somewhere | 8 | 4 |
| Chart places held | 14 | 5 |
The median is taken across all 976 Korean titles that reached any country top 10, most of which charted in one or two markets. This is a comparison, not a ranking — we do not publish a league of titles, and a title well above the median is a title that travelled, not a title that is better.
It reached 11 markets in all. The most that held it in the same week was 3 — the week of 2021-09-12.
Those two figures are different achievements. Reaching 11 markets over 8 weeks and holding 3 of them in one week are not the same event, and a single "markets" column cannot tell them apart. Netflix publishes neither figure; both are counted here from the weekly country lists.
How it left. Counting each country separately, it ended 11 runs on a chart. The middle one ended from position 9, and 10 of 11 ended from positions 8 to 10. Across all Korean titles that figure is 56.8%, and it would be 30% if leaving had nothing to do with position — how a title leaves has the whole table.

Markets are in alphabetical order, not in order of size. A market name is a link only where that country has a page of its own; the rest are plain text rather than a link that goes nowhere.

⚠ 2021 and 2026 are part years — Netflix's weekly country lists start 2021-07-04 and our copy ends 2026-08-16, so those two rows cover fewer weeks than the others and cannot be compared with them.
The same weekly files, cut five other ways. Each of these answers a question this page cannot: not what happened to 8MM, but what happened around it.
