As global demand for South Korean series continues to grow following Squid Game's unprecedented success, other series are helping South Korean actors find newfound recognition and success worldwide. Hellbound and Hometown Cha-Cha-Hometown are two great examples of series that have made its cast members, including Yoo Ah-in and Kim Hyun-joo, surge in demand. Squid Game has created an even bigger market for South Korean content, as stars from some of the most popular series walk the red carpet in Los Angeles and build up fanbases globally.
