In recent times, Korean dramas have captured the hearts of audiences worldwide with their compelling storylines and captivating performances. One such series, King The Land, has gained immense popularity and is currently trending globally on Netflix at an impressive number 9. This romantic drama has managed to captivate viewers across the globe.
However, for fans in India, the wait for the Hindi dubbed version of King The Land has been frustratingly long. Despite its global success, the series is set to be unavailable to Indian viewers until July 13, and even then, only the Hindi dub will be released. This delay has left many Indian fans feeling disappointed and left out of the global conversation surrounding the show.
The situation is not unique to King The Land alone. Another Korean series, See You In My 19th Life, is also facing a similar fate. Fans in India are eagerly anticipating its release, but once again, they will have to endure an extended wait before they can enjoy the show in their preferred language.
What makes this delay particularly disheartening for Indian viewers is the fact that a significant number of them prefer watching these series in their original Korean language rather than in Hindi. These fans appreciate the nuances and authenticity that come with experiencing the performances in their original form.
Fans argue that while the rest of the world gets to enjoy these series and engage in discussions, they are left out due to the delayed release schedule.
The disappointment expressed by Indian fans towards Netflix India is not without reason.

Two dramas I was waiting for, two dramas @NetflixIndia decided not to buy Korean language rights for.
I'm sure it was cheaper to acquire just the Hindi dub but I'm one of many viewers who will never choose to watch a dubbed drama AND dislike that Hindi is the only option. pic.twitter.com/WHnXj2LimZ
