K–Drama Soundtracks Have a Life of Their Own
One of the best ways to escape reality and cure boredom during this tumultuous quarantine is binging K– dramas. From whirlwind romances to dreadful horrors, you could plunge into a high school Cinderella story or breathe a sigh of relief that at least our world isn’t filled with supernatural monsters. You may have heard of them even if you are not familiar with Korean culture—some of them have gained international fame, especially in Asia, but also in the United States. Although K–dramas may be a challenge to watch for some viewers who don’t know the Korean language, the universal language of music that these dramas feature has helped push them to further international fame.
