American viewers will soon have two new free channels featuring Korean entertainment, accessible directly through Amazon Prime Video, without the need for a subscription. CJ ENM, the company behind the global hit movie Parasite, announced the launch of these brand channels, "CJ ENM K-Stories" and "CJ ENM K-Pop," on Friday. These channels operate around the clock, providing a steady stream of Korean drama, film, and music to American audiences.
This move is part of CJ ENM's strategy to make better use of its vast content library and tap into the rapidly growing free ad-supported streaming television (FAST) market. As subscription costs for traditional streaming services continue to rise and lead to consumer fatigue, free ad-supported platforms have gained significant traction in American media consumption.
The main channel, "CJ ENM K-Stories," will feature popular TV series and movies, beginning with its inaugural lineup of acclaimed titles.
