She was one of the most talked-about rookies right now, so including her in the thumbnail was only natural.

-Up until ParCheHi I didn’t think she was this good at acting, but wow... seriously unexpected. Guess there’s a reason it’s DaeYeJong TT_TT
The power of a charming character outweighed everything else. Han Yeoreum delivered properly in every role she was given.
Just one year.
A rookie who had only shown her face to the public for a single year was already making a na for herself.
“And that’s not all....”
But Yeoreum’s influence didn’t stop there.

(Capture of an older Yeoreum Olive0 sighting post.jpg)
Even before, every ti there was a sighting, Han Yeoreum always hugged won tight and took photos with them.
Recently, at every Law-Faster-than no-stage greeting, she’s been sticking her cheek to unnie fans like she’s running a “make-my-girls” project, and everyone keeps saying the scent was so good their faces turned red. That’s literally all anyone says.
Now everyone’s curious about what perfu Han Yeoreum uses.
-LOOOOLLL at that point you’d think she was your friend, seriously. Her fan service is insane TT_TT
-It slls fresh even through the photo꒰՞˶ˊᵕˋ˶՞꒱
-So what is Han Yeoreum’s perfu? T_T Does anyone know..
ㄴThere’s a theory it’s the ALAB hair ampoule lolololol her hair’s long too, and up close you probably sll the essence more than perfu
Before long, the phrase “Han Yeoreum scent” was going viral naturally. ALAB’s new product, the Cheongdam Dok Gogyeol ampoule, confidently took first place even at a low discount price.
Sales for the fashion brand N, which had cast Han Yeoreum as a model, and for Creamy Soda also began to rise in tandem.

Having transcended her works to imprint her personal image, Han Yeoreum was, no matter what anyone said, the rising blue chip of the advertising world.
“Hey, Reporter Wi. You heard?”
It was such a joyful situation that anyone cheering for Han Yeoreum couldn’t help but smile. Reporter Wi was the sa. As always, he was searching reactions about Yeoreum when a colleague beside him spoke quietly.
“This is legit official.”
“What is?”
“Jegal Rok....”
Gulp. Just hearing the na Jegal Rok made anticipation swell.
Reporter Wi swallowed as he stared at his colleague’s slowly opening mouth.
For so reason, he had a gut feeling. Whatever ca out of that mouth wouldn’t be ordinary.
“They’re airing overseas imdiately after it finishes.”
“What?”
Reporter Wi shouted, his voice rising with excitent.
“You’re supposed to renegotiate overseas rights after a series ends! Does that make any sense?”
“It doesn’t. But Jegal Rok bundled it with a show program JC ENM made and closed the deal. He put a lot of effort into Taiwan, especially.”
“Taiwan, huh....”
The two naturally thought of the Japanese market. Works that perford well in /N_o_v_e_l_i_g_h_t/ Taiwan tended to draw attention in Japan as well.
If succeeded decisively in Taiwan, the chances of success in Japan would rise sharply.
‘Usually when Korean dramas enter Japan, they check reactions in Taiwan, Thailand, Hong Kong, and then renegotiate prices....’
On top of that, was currently enjoying near-syndro-level popularity in Japan. If it was a Korean drama, even a different genre could draw interest.
“There was a reason he didn’t take Chinese investnt money. He was planning to secure Taiwan properly first, that guy. Damn... isn’t that insane?”
All the pieces clicked into place. Reporter Wi was dumbfounded as well. He couldn’t even begin to tell how many moves ahead Jegal Rok was thinking.

Success in Canada.
Expansion into Central and South Arica and the Caribbean. Services launched in xico, Brazil, Argentina, and more.
Entry into the European market. Services begin in the UK, Ireland, Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden.
The following year, expansion into a content platform competing with existing broadcasters through original dramas.
Further expansion into Western Europe. France, Germany, Austria, Belgium, Switzerland, Luxembourg.
Without stopping, this brand chose Japan as its first Asian expansion market.
“Which countries haven’t we expanded into yet?”
An OTT platform that didn’t just chew up global broadcasters, but outright dominated them. Netholics.
“The Middle East, Singapore, India, among others.”
“Hmm....”
As she looked at the globe on the desk, a woman’s hand reached out. With a playful tap, the globe spun around.
“Oh, looks like we left this one out.”
Her fingertip landed on a very small country.
“Should we? Or shouldn’t we?”
One of the countries with the highest per-capita movie attendance in the world, over 200 million annual moviegoers, a country that commanded high selling prices in both the Chinese and Japanese markets, a country equipped with world-class ultra-high-speed internet penetration.
“Korea.”
And so, Netholics—destined to change the paradigm of global video content—began moving toward Korea.
