When Korean Obsession Stops Being Cute and Starts Getting Deadly | EXPLAINIT

Описание: Is it still "cute" if you’ve lost touch with your own reality? K-Fever in India has evolved from a hobby into a lifestyle addiction that is rewiring the minds of Gen Z.

From the streets of Delhi to the cafes of Bengaluru, India’s Gen Z is living in a "K-Loop." It starts with one drama or a single BTS track, but soon, algorithms take over—pushing endless fancams, K-beauty tutorials, and soft-boy clips that make real life feel grey. For many Indian teenagers, South Korea is no longer a country; it’s a sanctuary they escape to when they can't handle the pressures of Indian society.

In this EXPLAINIT deep dive, we explore the rise of "Seoul Syndrome"—the phenomenon where fans begin to reject their own culture and identity in favor of a curated Korean aesthetic. We look at the rise of parasocial relationships, the "deadly" impact of digital dependency, and why for thousands of teens, the dream of a K-Romance is making real-world connections feel impossible. Are we watching a cultural revolution, or a mass-scale psychological crisis?Welcome to Indiatimes Youtube channel.
