SEOUL, Feb. 28 (UPI) —<\/span> South Korea’s second Netflix original show this year, Juvenile Justice,<\/i> made its way into the global charts just days after its premiere Friday.<\/p>\n The courtroom drama ranked 10th Sunday globally, topping the charts in South Korea, Japan, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam, according to Flixpatrol, which tracks streaming data.\n<\/p>\n<\/article>\n In Singapore and Taiwan, the show hit No. 2.<\/p>\n However, Juvenile Justice<\/i> failed to attract viewers from the West, unlike All of Us Are Dead,<\/i> another South Korean original Netflix series released earlier this year,<\/p>\n The zombie thriller hit No. 1 in the global Netflix charts after its release in January. It still remains in the Netflix Top 5.<\/p>\n After Squid Game<\/i> became a global sensation late last year, Korean Netflix originals like My Name, Hellbound<\/i> and All of Us Are Dead<\/i> gained popularity worldwide.<\/p>\n Juvenile Justice,<\/i> directed by Hong Jong-chan, is a 10-episode series that highlights the issue of juvenile delinquency through the perspective of four judges who rule over the offenses.<\/p>\n “In the past, I just heard about juvenile offenders through the media. But this drama gave me an opportunity to take a closer look,” Hong told an online press conference Tuesday.\n<\/p>\n “I believe that young offenders are not the only ones who are responsible. I think that there are also fundamental social problems,” he said.<\/p>\n The drama stars Kim Hye-soo, Kim Mu-yeol, Lee Jung-eun and Lee Sung-min. It marks Kim Hye-soo’s first appearance on Netflix.<\/p>\n After making her debut in the mid-1980s as a high school student, Kim is now one of the most sought-after actresses in South Korea.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" South Korean actress Kim Hye-soo appears in the Netflix original series, “Juvenile Justice.” The series made it into the global Top 10 charts on Netflix just two days after its premiere on Friday.
