>What's a good gateway into Korean media and music?
They have fun stuff on Shitflix. Series like Bloodhounds or Sweet Home.
And their movies in general are some of the best modern (Y2K onward) Asian movies desu. Can't really go wrong with any one of the more famous ones. I'm sure you heard of Oldboy at least.
As for the music, they have other scenes outside of Kpop, sure, but Kpop is a multimedia titanic elephant in the room that you can't ignore. You can dig up their rock bands or ballads or whatever but Kpop itself is more homogenized and more prevalent in the industry than Jpop is in Japan, for example.
So there's less diversity there and if you can't swallow the entire package which includes idol culture and hip hop concepts then I reckon it's not really worth getting into it.
As a litmus test, if you like how this by the books group sounds https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sL0pCS6K9bc it's safe to say you'll like most of what this genre has to offer too.
