"Let me give you another song..."
Su Yang's live broadcast room is very lively at the moment. Compared with the live broadcast room opened in South Korea, the number of online users has now exceeded seven million.
Various gifts were flying everywhere, and Su Yang behaved very naturally in the live broadcast room, chatting with MENG members, cooking delicious food, and singing for netizens.
Moreover, this kind of singing does not require any sound card at all, sometimes just a guitar or a piano. In this mode, Su Yang's singing skills and voice are fully displayed, coupled with the support of the gold medal, the Korean fans in the live broadcast room screamed with excitement.
Not only that, Su Yang also showed off his versatile voice actor skills, imitating the voices of many Korean singers and singing his own songs in the same voices.
In short, Su Yang pulled out all the stops during this livestream, even sharing makeup tips with his female fans. This dedicated livestream not only delighted his Korean fans but also won over many of his die-hard fans.
It was only at this time that many fans realized that Su Yang was such a powerful and interesting idol.
Time passed happily, and the Korean drama "Kingdom" was officially released on Netflix at 8 pm Seoul time.
Many of Su Yang's fans and curious netizens have been looking forward to it for a long time, especially in Japan and South Korea, where Su Yang has many fans.
In Korea, it is because of Su Yang's mischief, and the reason why he has many fans in Japan is also because of Su Yang's mischief in Korea. Seeing how Su Yang is doing in Korea, countless Japanese netizens have become his fans. And Su Yang's works are also very popular in Japan. Although the number of fans in Japan is not as large as in Korea, the number of hardcore fans and high-quality fans is more than 3 million, which is already very good.
When "Kingdom" was aired, many netizens immediately clicked on it to watch.
The first two episodes are free to watch. You can tell if a TV show is good by watching two episodes. Especially for seasonal shows like this, you don't even need one episode to tell its quality.
Kim Moon-soo is a Korean artist and is well-known in Korea.
She didn't have any work to do tonight, so she just stayed at home and watched TV. Jin Wenxiu was a die-hard fan of Su Yang, and she didn't know when she became a fan.
However, Jin Wenxiu has never published anything about Su Yang in public. Although Jin Wenxiu is a die-hard fan, Jin Wenxiu knows her identity. Besides, her social media accounts are managed by the company, and Jin Wenxiu has no right to use them.
Although as an artist, Jin Wenxiu cannot publicly express her support for Su Yang for the time being. However, Jin Wenxiu secretly supports Su Yang very much. Su Yang's music, Su Yang's movies, Su Yang's TV series, etc., Jin Wenxiu will support almost anything related to Su Yang whenever she has time.
Jin Wenxiu opened "Kingdom" and watched it carefully. Jin Wenxiu is also an actor, so her vision is more discerning than that of ordinary audiences.
Sitting on the sofa, Jin Wenxiu watched the drama very attentively. She was quickly drawn in by the fascinating plot, which featured palace fighting and zombies, a novel theme. The storyline was also very tight, and the actors' acting was excellent.
Before she knew it, she had finished watching the two free episodes. Seeing the payment prompt, Jin Wenxiu directly chose to pay for on-demand viewing. This amount of money was negligible for Jin Wenxiu. What's more, this TV series was so good that it was worth paying for it.
At this moment, countless netizens around the world are just like Jin Wenxiu. Many people watched this TV series with curiosity, and were attracted by it as soon as they started watching it.
"It's so beautiful, it makes my heart hang in the air..."
"Lin Zhenying's acting is so good, so cool..."
"This is definitely an excellent TV series, worth spending money to watch..."
"This is definitely a very good Korean drama..."
"I didn't expect Korean dramas to be so good..."
In the barrage and comment sections, viewers from all over the world are also lively commenting. These viewers are from Japan, South Korea, Europe, the United States, the Middle East, and even Africa.
"Kingdom" has officially launched worldwide, and Netflix is closely monitoring subscription data. Su Yang is incredibly famous in China, having repeatedly created miracles. This is why Netflix sought out Su Yang for a partnership, and now they're also looking forward to "Kingdom" creating miracles.
Subscription data is increasing, and the reputation of "Kingdom" is slowly spreading.
Su Yang's live broadcast officially ended around 10 pm. The peak number of online viewers exceeded 8 million. In a country like South Korea with a population of only 52 million, 8 million people watching the live broadcast online is a very scary number.
After Su Yang's live broadcast ended, countless fans went directly to watch Kingdom, and the number of subscriptions to Kingdom in South Korea continued to increase.
Although many Koreans are shouting about boycotting, after the show was released, they still couldn't help but watch it out of curiosity. Whether they are young or middle-aged, even some older people are also curious about what this show is like.
After Su Yang finished the live broadcast, he returned to his villa to rest.
That night, the TV series "Kingdom" began to ferment around the world.
When Su Yang woke up the next day, the reputation of "Kingdom" had exploded.
"This year's best Korean drama. 'Kingdom' is getting rave reviews on Netflix..."
"Kingdom's global subscriptions exceed 20 million..."
"Kingdom is very popular in Europe and the United States..."
"Kingdom is a huge hit in South Korea..."
Su Yang's eyes widened when he saw the news.
"Fuck, it really exploded"
Su Yang hadn't been sure before, but now that he saw the news, he quickly looked up relevant information. Soon, the relevant data came out. It was released at 8 p.m., and by midnight, the number of global subscriptions had exceeded 10 million.
It was a little after six in the morning, and less than twelve hours had passed, and the global subscriptions had already exceeded 20 million. This was quite impressive, considering that Kingdom's subscription figures didn't include the Chinese market.
With 20 million subscriptions, and each subscription is calculated at six US dollars, the subscription amount is as high as 120 million US dollars.
Such figures are definitely a huge profit. You have to know that the total investment in the TV series "Kingdom" is only 100 million RMB. Now, in less than 12 hours, it has already made a huge profit.
And now is just the beginning. A good TV series needs word of mouth to brew. Now the word of mouth of "Kingdom" has begun to explode around the world, and after the word of mouth explodes, more viewers will watch this TV series.
Netflix has 220 million members. Su Yang cannot make any predictions now as to how many people will watch this TV series and how many people will subscribe to it. Everything can only be left to time.
