The series “A Killer Paradox” reached second place globally just three days after its release.

According to Netflix’s TOP 10 official website on the 14th, the Netflix series “A Killer Paradox” recorded 3.1 million views and 21.9 million viewing hours from February 5th to February 11th, securing the second place in Netflix’s Global TOP10 TV series category (non-English).

This record was achieved just three days after its release, and it has made it to the top 10 in 19 countries worldwide, including Korea, Thailand, Vietnam, Taiwan, Indonesia, Hong Kong, and India.

Released worldwide on the 9th, “A Killer Paradox” is a story about an ordinary man who accidentally starts to commit murders and a detective who relentlessly pursues him. The series is based on a webtoon of the same name and has been praised for its bold editing that shifts the perspective of the characters, sensual music that maximizes the pleasure of the genre, and the immersive performances of Choi Woo Shik, Son Suk Ku, and Lee Hee Joon, who vividly portray characters on the boundary of good and evil.

JTBC’s Saturday-Sunday drama “Doctor Slump” recorded 2.2 million views and 12.9 million viewing hours during the same period, securing third place. It has topped the charts in five countries, including Bangladesh, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, and the Philippines, and made it to the top 10 in 25 countries worldwide.

“Doctor Slump” is a romantic comedy that depicts the “failed life resuscitation” of Yeo Jeong Woo (played by Park Hyung Sik) and Nam Ha Neul (played by Park Shin Hye), who have only been on a life with success and then experience a significant setback. The series proved its astonishing popularity by reaching number one on Netflix’s global chart just two weeks after its broadcast.
