Final Verdict:
The problem is not that you know what to watch, whether you live in South Korea or anywhere else on the planet. It’s easy for us all to feel like Netflix is filled with craps or that you’ve seen all you need to see before. There are numerous reasons for this, but a major reason is how Netflix algorithms work. These are prejudicial corporate algorithms that put before you what Netflix spent, not what is good. Let’s on Netflix and enjoy Korean Movies.
