25 Korean titles held a weekly top 10 place in 64 countries that week, taking 130 chart places in total.
Week label 2021-12-19, the same label Netflix uses. A chart place
means one country's weekly top 10 listed the title once; it is not a count of viewers, and
Netflix's country file carries no viewing figures at all.
This is the Korean slice of that week, not the whole chart. Every week's top 10 in every country also holds titles from everywhere else, and we do not republish those — K Culture Wire counts Korean titles. Netflix's own page for this week has the full lists.
