4. Do you watch American films often?
5. Are they mostly “blockbuster” movies from Hollywood?
6. What do you think the biggest differences between South Korea drama and Unites States drama?
7. Why do you think that American movies and TV dramas/shows are so well-received in South Korea (and in other nations as well)?
8. Do you consider the language boundary a real restriction on the content you choose to consume?
