A Netflix title is dominating global charts and turning its cast into breakout stars.
On May 6, Netflix confirmed that the original series Girigo has claimed No. 1 on the Netflix Global Top 10 Non-English TV shows, proving its unstoppable momentum. Entering its second week, Girigo recorded 7.5 million views to seize the top spot. It ranked No. 1 in 24 countries and landed in the Top 10 in a total of 64 countries, racing down a worldwide hit streak.
Girigo follows high schoolers who receive death notices from a wish-granting app and fight tooth and nail to survive. The show skillfully fuses a fresh teen coming-of-age vibe with the chilling edge of the occult, earning rave reviews from both critics and viewers.
After debuting at No. 4 with 2.8 million views in its first week, Girigo exploded in week two on the back of powerful word of mouth, more than doubling its view count to snatch No. 1. Riding this overwhelming support, the Girigo team surprised fans by dropping never-before-seen production stills.
Among the new stills, Jeon So-young’s turn as Se-a inside a ritual space evokes the unforgettable scene where she confronts her trauma, leaving a fierce impression. Meanwhile, Baek Seon-ho and Hyun Woo-seok executing flawless wire action reveals the passion and hard work fueling the drama’s most immersive moments.
As a standout, emotion-packed 'YA horror' that swings between moving and terrifying, Girigo is winning over audiences worldwide and is now streaming on Netflix.
