Channel K: India’s First Korean Entertainment Channel Bringing the Best of K-Drama, K-Pop and More

Channel K emphasizes India’s significance as a market for Korean entertainment while simultaneously stoking the country’s growing interest in it. Alongside the proliferation of K-culture festivals and concerts featuring popular Korean acts in the country, India’s exclusive channel dedicated to Korean content, Channel K, symbolizes yet another significant milestone in this cultural interaction.

Recognizing the burgeoning engrossment in Korean pop culture among Indian audiences, IMX—Interactive Media Mix, a leader in content acquisition and distribution since 2001, has brought Channel K to the forefront, promising to deliver “a seamless, fan-focused experience” that brings the best of Korean entertainment and culture to India.

With over 40 films, 30 dramas, 10 reality shows, and K-pop specials in its library—including BTS Bring the Soul: Docu-Series (2019) and Tour-Ing: Seventeen World Tour [Be the Sun] (2022)—as well as exclusive content on the horizon, Channel K (on Amazon Prime Video) showcases an eclectic mix of award-winning films and hits spanning reality shows, K-dramas, K-pop concerts, and so on.

The popularity of Korean cultural exports, including music, movies, and television series, has surged due to the “Korean Wave,” or “Hallyu,” and Channel K facilitates our access to them. A one-stop shop for engaging K-dramas and electrifying K-pop performances, the platform stands out in its offerings, handpicked for Indian audiences.

Channel K is a collection of classic and contemporary Korean content, from cult favorites like My Lovely Samsoon (2005) and Boys Over Flowers (2009) to the recent big hits in Korea, like The Tale of Lady Ok (2024) and Family Matters (2024). This comprehensive collection ensures that there’s something for everyone with a liking to Korean dramas, including both long-time fans and those who are new to the genre. There’s also a curated list of Korean movies available with titles such as On Your Wedding Day (2018), Our Season (2023), and others of sorts.

In the months to come, Channel K promises to add more than 1,000 hours of new programming with 120 additional titles to its expanding catalog, moving forward with its objective to deliver a wide variety of shows. Click here for more information.
