‘Teach You a Lesson’ Tops Netflix’s Weekly Non-English Chart for 4th Consecutive Week

Seoul: The action-packed Korean school drama "Teach You a Lesson" retained its top position on Netflix's non-English chart for the fourth consecutive week, the streaming platform said Wednesday.

According to Yonhap News Agency, the series, which was released on June 5, accumulated 7.3 million views during the latest tracking week ending Sunday. This is a slight decrease compared to the 11.8 million views it garnered in the previous week. "Teach You a Lesson" was the most-watched show in the category in six countries and regions, including Indonesia, Japan, and Singapore, and also reached the top 10 in 69 others.

Based on the webtoon "Get Schooled," this Netflix original follows a team of inspectors at the fictional Education Rights Protection Bureau-Na Hwa-jin (Kim Mu-yeol), Im Han-rim (Jin Ki-joo), and Bong Geun-dae (Pyo Ji-hoon)-who set out to teach bullies a lesson. The series has resonated with global audiences due to its realistic episodes that mirror real-life incidents and a cathartic plot that prioritizes the rights of victims-both students and teachers-while also blending in comedy and action.

Three other Korean shows also made it to the top 10. "Agent Kim Reactivated," featuring So Ji-sub as a seemingly ordinary father with a secret past that unfolds as he searches for his missing daughter, debuted at No. 3 with 6.6 million views. The fantasy rom-com series "My Royal Nemesis" came in at seventh with 2 million views, while "Notes from the Last Row," a psychological thriller with a literary twist, ranked eighth with 1.6 million views.

In the non-English film category, the Korean action-comedy "Husbands in Action" topped the list with 6.3 million views, rising a notch from the previous week. Meanwhile, in the English-language film category, "KPop Demon Hunters" remained in the top 10 for the 54th straight week, ranking sixth with 3.8 million views.
