The Golden age of Korean pop and Dramas is pretty much ending in most of Southeast Asia. I don’t think this is because Korean products have gotten weaker though, I think it’s because of a process I’ll call Netflixzation. Netflix kind of diffused the best filmmaking practices and concepts from America globally in a rush of tens of billions of dollars, this means a lot of local film industries that would have been slower to develop, got a huge jolt all at once, and local audiences grew more comfortable consuming their own local products. The same has happened via pop music where a lot of the best learnings around music production + factory systems easily flowed into Southeast Asia as well. There are just far more excellent cultural products emerging all through Asia, and as a result there’s greater fragmentation into local scenes. This will likely happen within Africa in a decade too as it gets richer, Nollywood and Nigerian dominated Afrobeats won’t reign forever.

KITA KONDANGAN GAESSSS Sisa 2 episode aja 🥹🥹💔

i know why they did it, but i still kinda don’t like that they just turned Hama in to the fire nation village. like they know she’s a waterbender at this point right? that’s practically a death sentence

i just want to tell you that weverse dms is a way for antis to send hate to the members DIRECTLY. haters literally buy their phone numbers to hate on them but now they have weverse dms thing and it’s even easier for them to do it. it happened a lot with idols who have bubble (lysn app) 🥹 it’s making me anxious cuz we don’t know who’ll buy the subscription and what they’ll message them… i just hope the members won’t read the messages much and won’t see bad things
