Netflix's 'Is This Love Translatable?' Tops Global Non-English Show Rankings

The Netflix series 'Is This Love Translatable?' starring Kim Seon-ho and Go Youn-jung has claimed the number one spot on Netflix's global TOP 10 non-English shows, proving its unyielding popularity. Alongside this achievement, behind-the-scenes stills have been released.

'Is This Love Translatable?' is an unpredictable romantic comedy featuring multilingual interpreter Joo Ho-jin (played by Kim Seon-ho) who becomes the interpreter for global top star Cha Moo-hee (played by Go Youn-jung). The series reached the top spot in its second week of release, with 9 million views (calculated by dividing viewing hours by the total runtime of the series) and appeared in the TOP 10 list in 60 countries.

Both domestic and international media and viewers have praised the chemistry between the actors and the diverse locations. The show's quality, beautiful locations, and captivating OST have also received positive reviews.

The released behind-the-scenes stills capture the passionate performances of the actors and the serious yet harmonious atmosphere on set. From Kim Seon-ho and Go Youn-jung focusing before filming to their discussions with director Yoo Young-eun while monitoring scenes, the dedication of the two actors is evident in every frame.

Go Youn-jung's portrayal of the character 'Dorami' shows her effort to express a character completely different from 'Cha Moo-hee.' The beautiful overseas locations and emotional atmosphere of the series are naturally reflected in the behind-the-scenes stills. A still of Fukushi Sota and Go Youn-jung smiling as they walk side by side on a grand castle wall in Italy captures the actors' unwavering focus amidst numerous cameras and crew. Additionally, Lee Yi-dam's discussions with director Yoo Young-eun highlight his passion for enhancing the scene where he reunites with Kim Seon-ho in Canada, while Choi Woo-sung's cheerful conversation with the director recalls the harmonious atmosphere on set.

Continuing its unrelenting popularity, 'Is This Love Translatable?' is streaming exclusively on Netflix, having topped the global TOP 10 non-English shows in its second week of release.
