  1. Squid Game (2021) – 2,315,500,000 hours – Netflix Original, exclusive streaming.
  2. Extraordinary Attorney Woo (2022) – 662,090,000 hours.

It seems that despite its recent release of early 2024, “Queen of Tears”’s global popularity has sent Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won’s project to a high position, even surpassing the 2022-2023 sensation “The Glory”.

Meanwhile, “Squid Game” continues to dominate the list, with total viewing hours surpassing the second position, “Extraordinary Attorney Woo”, by almost 4 times.

With its 2nd season soon arriving, “Squid Game” is expected to continue its hype and maintain its standing as one of Korea’s top IPs.
