Australia now has a streaming service for a hit Korean TV show that is expected to attract as much attention than the popular Squid Game series.
Squid Game’s hype is finally beginning to fade, and a new South Korean drama called My Name is expected to become the next big hit.
The eight-part series centres around Yoon Ji-woo who is seeking revenge after her gangster father was murdered in cold blood on her 17th birthday.
She joins the Dongcheon gang, ran by her father’s friend and crime boss Choi Mujin who trains her up in his martial arts gym.
Squid Game is slowly losing its popularity after becoming the most watched series on Netflix. Now, the hype surrounding My Name, a South Korean drama, is starting to fade.
Ji-woo joins the police force as an undercover officer to try and find the killer who killed her father. It is a wild ride for viewers.
My Name aired for the first time on Netflix on October 15. It has already received praise from viewers for its cinematography and acting, as well as its bingeworthy plot.
It’s already soared into the streaming service’s Top 10 in the UK and has racked up a 8.0 rating on IMDb, which is just a touch behind Squid Game’s rating of 8.1.
Squid Game was a landmark when it attracted 111 million viewers from all over the globe within its first three weeks of release.
It was a pop culture hit and was a popular choice for Halloween outfits.
The series’ eight-part story centers on Yoon Ji-woo, who seeks revenge on her gangster father, who was brutally murdered on her 17th birthday.
The series was number one on Netflix’s Top 10 Lists in 94 countries, and also became the first South Korean show to be named the Top Show in the USA.
Aussie schools warned parents not to let their children watch the violent show as they were performing the scenes in the playground.
The South Korean show is the most popular on Netflix. It centers around a fictional game show that sees poverty-stricken characters compete for a $50million cash prize.
It includes scenes of horrifying scenes where characters are shot in the head and others have their organs removed.
