In addition to moving ahead with the times through 2024 releases like the K-drama Doubt and the fantasy drama film Our Season, starring Kim Hae Sook and Shin Min A, Channel K also turns back to classic K-drama soaps like Personal Taste, which originally aired in the early 2000s with Lee Min Ho and Son Ye Jin as leads.
A trusted pocket-friendly steal deal
What’s more? As the “gateway to Korean entertainment,” Channel K’s culture-bridging plans offer an entire library of the best premium content at an affordable price. Tune in for full access to Amazon Prime Video’s latest expansion for just 1 INR. The unmissable, limited-time offer will unmistakably get you hooked on Korean content through an Indian window, unlike before.
Even before expanding its reach to India, IMX paved the way for Korean entertainment in Japan. As a leader in content acquisition and distribution since 2001, its Channel K venture has already amassed 20+ years in the K-industry, bringing content from South Korean networks such as KBS, MBC, SBS, CJ, JTBC, Mnet and more to Japan. Now it’s time for India to welcome the best of K-entertainment with open arms!
