Recently actress Pranitaa Pandit, famous for shows like Kasam Tere Pyaar Ki, Kavach and Jamai Raja, went live with Korean content provider Hoon. She shares her experience with us.
So what prompted Pranitaa Pandit to go live with Hoon? “Both Hoon and Min are from Korean shows and they are very popular content creators. The best part is they make content only on Indian movies, culture and various other aspects related to India. That really appealed to me. We connected on Instagram. I have seen people going crazy about Korean content. We don’t really see much of Korean creators or Korean stars doing things on India. The fact that these guys are making such good content on India and even traveled to India is interesting. Their love for Indian food is also very evident.”
Why do you feel Korean music and dramas have been getting so much attention in India? “I think the major factor is that there is a lot of similarity in family values between Indians and the Korean households. So when you watch the drama you kind of relate to them. The way the dramas are made – the production quality, the stars, the performance – are all very nice and that’s why it’s appealing to all age groups and people in India. Also the drama has everything people want to see including romance and a lot of comedy. The visuals, the story, the production quality everything is so good. That’s why people are following K drama so much.”
So what kind of series and music you watch? “I am in the process of knowing more and more and whatever I have known till now I am extremely impressed with it and that’s why even thought of doing these live sessions with Korean creators. I love BTS and Stray Kids a lot and looking forward to explore more K drama.”
