Korean pop culture, in numbers

Behind Your Touch

A Korean series that reached a Netflix weekly top 10 in 27 of 93 markets, holding 96 chart places across 9 weeks between 2023-08-13 and 2023-10-08. Its best position anywhere was number 2.

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.

The median is taken across all 915 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 This is a comparison, not a ranking — we do not publish a league of titles, and a title well above the median is a title that travelled, not a title that is better.

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.

From Wikidata, listed alphabetically. A credit is not a share of the work — it records that a company is attached, not how much of the budget or the decision it held. Companies inside one corporate group are listed separately because we did not confirm the ownership tree.
