Netflix’s Squid Game helped to start the global hunger for Korean dramas—and its partly thanks to Minyoung Kim, who endorsed the show at the streaming giant. Kim is Netflix’s vice president of content for Asia Pacific, a role she’s held since 2021. Last year, the second season of Squid Game topped Netflix’s charts around the world. Kim is now overseeing creative projects in Southeast Asia, including zombie thrillers in Thailand and Indonesia.
