Black Pink Rosé and pop star Bruno Mars' duet song 'Apartment' (APT.) is gaining worldwide popularity.

In particular, Professor Seo said "Somaek", one of the representative Korean alcohol cultures, is widely introduced to the world by various global platforms such as shorts and reels."

He also revealed that the recently ended Netflix series 'Black and White Cook: The War of the Culinary Classes' also contributed greatly to the globalization of Korean food.



Professor Seo said, `It was a good opportunity to spread Korean bibimbap to overseas viewers amid China's recent claim of hot pot bibimbap as its own culture.'

In addition, "As these various contents are loved by people around the world, interest in Korean food is hot" and "K contents are now becoming the mainstream culture of people around the world".
