  2. This are not official while Netflix have released year end officials had TKEM as most watched where as Vincenzo is 2021 show.

    But not surprised to see Nevertheless do so well in this one. The year end will come out again in decemeber

    • @peanut gallery – lol ikr?! I’m a huge fan of Vincenzo but even I was surprised to see how popular it was with international viewers, usually kdrama ifans go for romcoms/romance dramas, not crime dramas even if they star Song Joong Ki.

      • I wonder if Vincenzo picked up a bunch of international fans who aren’t kdrama regulars, the same way that Squid Game did. I saw some folks raving about it that I would not take to be a regular kdrama watcher, like Simon Pegg (of all people, lol).

      • IDK it was a crime drama with rom-com elements. I can see how it would appeal to a larger audience.

      • @Mimi – considering it didn’t even become clear they were actually going to have a romance element at all till halfway through the drama (writer left it out of his previous two dramas) and it was understated even after they kissed, that description isn’t exactly accurate.

        Crime kdramas don’t have a history of being popular on Netflix but maybe it’s a sign of audience tastes shifting too.

        @peanut gallery – I do think its being simulcast on Netflix gave it high visibility to international fans throughout its run and being in the top 10 in many countries did help push it to viewers who weren’t kdrama fans before (and who maybe weren’t the type to be into your typical kdrama romcoms) ….and lol Simon Pegg. Though it makes sense he would like Vincenzo, the humour+dark tone is a but like Hot Fuzz.
