Author Paul Coelho Reveals Korean Drama “My Mister” Is A Great Masterpiece
Paul Coelho, best known as the author of The Alchemist, recently held an email interview with Yeonhap news to talk about the Korean entertainment including K-Pop and K-dramas.
He revealed that he first gained interest in Korean entertainment after watching the movie Old Boy back in 2016. Since then, he has watched over 100 Korean films and became curious about the country and how it would like like in-person.
He felt that the charm of K-contents was the jam-packed storyline and beauty.
He also shared what drama he watched recently on Netflix.
Before the interview, I watched the entire drama ‘My Mister’ through Netflix. It was a masterpiece. It’s one of the best works I’ve seen recently. It shows the intricacy of human psychology and has a rich story. It also touches on North and South Korean relations, which foreigners like me, are very interested in.
