Korean pop culture, in numbers

Korean titles on Netflix in 2026 — a part-year count

Read this year with care. Our data runs from 2021-07-04 to 2026-07-26, so 2026 holds only 30 weeks here, not fifty-two. Putting its 91 titles beside a full year would show a rise or a fall that belongs to our window and not to anything that happened.

91 Korean titles held at least one place on a Netflix weekly top 10 somewhere during 2026 — 39 series and 52 films, taking 4,212 places in total across 93 countries.

The titles

Ordered by how many chart places each held in 2026 — not by how good they are, and not by how many people watched. A place on a list is a place on a list.

A dash means we hold no figure for that title across its whole run, not a zero. Countries and weeks count the title’s entire run, which may reach outside 2026.

What this page is, and what it is not

Drawn from 528 Korean titles across 6 years. Of those years, 2026 and 2021 hold only part of a year in our data.

Korean titles grouped by the calendar year in which they held places on a Netflix weekly top 10, with how many places each held that year. Every title we publish has a year, which is why this axis reaches titles that have no cast or company data at all.

Not this. Not a ranking of years and not a trend. Our data starts in July 2021 and ends in July 2026, so the first and last years hold only about half a year each — comparing their totals against a full year would show a rise and a fall that are properties of the window, not of the industry. A chart place is also not a viewing figure.

Other years

2025 130 titles · 2024 145 titles · 2023 177 titles · 2022 184 titles · 2021 105 titles (part year)

How this was measured

Netflix's own weekly top 10 files, 265 weeks across 93 countries, 2021-07-04 to 2026-07-26. A title appears on this page if it held at least one place on a weekly list dated within 2026, and the places column counts only that year. Titles are ordered by places held in 2026; the countries and weeks columns describe the whole run, which is why they can be larger than this year alone.

What this cannot tell you

This year holds only 30 weeks of our data, so its totals are not comparable with a full year. A chart place is not a viewing figure and not a measure of quality — Netflix publishes neither by country. Netflix also states no country of production, so which titles count as Korean is our inference. A title watched widely without entering a top 10 does not appear here at all.
