Because it was a dirt poor nation that now is very rich. Economic power usually extends cultural clout.

Same reason anime became popular in the 1980s at the peak of Japan's economic soft power.

Korean dramas have been massively popular all throughout Asia for decades.

Not sure where you’ve been.

They're not, at all. That's marketing and woke producers. It's too bad, there is cool Korean stuff.

Their movies are basically good drama/action films that Hollywood used to make and would do well on DVD. Hollywood only make cape slop so Korea is filling the void.

Women got big into kpop which opened the floodgates for the rest of their media slipping through.
