• Yoo Ah In's "Hellbound" Tops Netflix World Rankings In Just A Day After Release

    As soon as the Netflix series 'Hellbound' was released, it climbed to the top of the world rankings.

    As of November 20th, if you look at the Netflix world ranking TV show category, 'Hellbound' is running at the top with 630 points.

    The 'Squid Game', which caused a syndrome around the world, dropped to a level below when 'Hellbound' was released.

    As a result, 'Hellbound' and 'Squid Game' were ranked at the top of the Netflix World Chart side by side, attracting attention.

    'Hellbound' tells the story of a supernatural phenomenon in which people are sentenced to hell from the messengers of hell who appear without notice, and the religious organization Saejinrihae, which was revived in this chaos, and those trying to uncover the truth of the incident are intertwined.

    This is a drama based on the Naver webtoon 'Hellbound'. Writer Choi Gyu-seok of 'Awl' and director Yeon Sang-ho of 'Train to Busan' took charge of drawing and writing, respectively.

    The lineup of actors is also good. Yoo Ah-in, Kim Hyeon-joo, Park Jeong-min, Won Jin-ah, and Yang Ik-jun enhanced the perfection of the play by three-dimensionally depicting various characters who want to keep their beliefs.

    Meanwhile, 'Hellbound' has been getting a hot response around the world right after it was released on Netflix at 5 pm on November 19th.
