A Korean series that reached a Netflix weekly top 10 in 72 of 93 markets, holding 393 chart places across 13 weeks between 2025-03-30 and 2026-03-08. Its best position anywhere was number 1.
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, 26 reached more markets than Weak Hero and 528 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.
| Weak Hero | Median Korean title that charted | |
|---|---|---|
| Markets reached | 72 | 2 |
| Weeks on a chart somewhere | 13 | 4 |
| Chart places held | 393 | 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 This is a comparison, not a ranking — we do not publish a league of titles, and a title well above the median is a title that travelled, not a title that is better.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 72 markets in all. The most that held it in the same week was 70 — the week of 2025-03-30.
Those two figures are different achievements. Reaching 72 markets over 13 weeks and holding 70 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 155 runs on a chart. The middle one ended from position 8, and 78 of 155 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.

⚠ 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.
Other Korean titles on this site that share a named person or a credited company with Weak Hero. The reason is given beside each one, because a shared name is the only claim being made — not that the two are alike.
The same weekly files, cut five other ways. Each of these answers a question this page cannot: not what happened to Weak Hero, but what happened around it.

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. The credit type is given in English with the original Korean label in brackets, because that label is what the filing says and translating it away would hide the source.
