Want To Go To Korea? DramaFever Is Giving Lucky Members A Trip To Seoul For Watching K-Movies

Over the last 15 years, Korean entertainment has sky-rocketed in popularity around the world. K-pop groups such as Big Bang, Super Junior, and 2NE1 are becoming strong competitors for musicals acts for the two biggest musical industries in the world, the United States and Europe. K-dramas, K-movies, and K-variety shows are becoming a viable form of entertainment outside of a country’s domestic television programming. This is definitely proven by the popularity increase of streaming sites specializing in Korean shows.

One such streaming site, DramaFever, understands just how big the fandom for Korean entertainment is. Over the last six years of bringing K-dramas, K-movies, and K-variety shows to the rest of the world, they have built a community, and they’ve learned from them.

For some lucky members and their plus one, DramaFever will provide two round-trip tickets so they can enjoy the Korean experience.

For every three questions answered correctly, a member gets one chance to win the the trip to Korea. They can double their chances if they watch all six movies and answer all six trivia questions correctly.

It should be noted the two K-movies for the first week are already up. The first one is Miss Granny starring Na Moon Lee and Shim Eun Kyung.
