When the Phone Rings led Korea’s Netflix week, 1 December 2024

19 Korean titles held a weekly top 10 place in 57 countries that week, taking 101 chart places in total.

Week label 2024-12-01, 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.

7 titles held the same number of countries in both weeks. A country count going up or down is a count of top-10 listings, not a measure of how much anyone watched — Netflix’s country file carries no viewing figures.
