Paradoxical Failure of Korean Dramas in cultivating family-building emotions among Koreans

Author(s) Nitin Rakesh
Country India
Abstract This paper explores the contradictions of Korean dramas (K-Dramas) in evoking romantic and family-building feelings among their citizens and Korean consumers. The K-Dramas are viewed worldwide post-Hallyu Wave in Asia and other nations for popularising romantic tropes and ideals; however, domestic viewers often express a sense of disconnection from the genre’s romantic narratives. This paper examines key factors contributing to this phenomenon, including cultural shifts, the commercialisation of the industry, and the repetitive, formulaic nature of romantic plotlines. The study explores how evolving societal attitudes towards relationships and gender roles may influence viewer responses. The research is based on the qualitative analysis of audience feedback, industry practices, and a comparison between domestic and international reception. The core of the paper argues that while K-Dramas continue to thrive abroad, their inability to resonate with the romantic expectations of Korean viewers points to deeper cultural and generational divides and a potential oversaturation of romantic tropes in the domestic market.
