Seoul: The Korean romantic film 'Love Untangled' has climbed to the top of Netflix's weekly non-English movies chart, the streaming giant said Wednesday. Premiering on Aug. 29, the film jumped from its initial No. 3 debut to the top, garnering 8.2 million views for the week ending on Sept. 7. It significantly outpaced the runner-up, the German erotic thriller film "Fall For Me," which logged 5.4 million views.
According to Yonhap News Agency, the Netflix original, "Love Untangled," follows the story of Se-ri (Shin Eun-soo), a lovestruck 19-year-old who is determined to straighten her perpetually frizzy hair. Her goal is to perfect her appearance before making a confession to her high school crush, Kim Hyun (Cha Woo-min).
Among non-English shows, three Korean programs landed in the top ten, with "Bon Appetit, Your Majesty," "Beyond the Bar" and "Queen Mantis" ranking 2nd, 3rd and 7th, respectively.
