SEOUL : When Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos visits South Korea this week he will find an entertainment industry that has achieved global fame through hits such as"Squid Game" and"The Glory", but also growing worries about its effects on the local market.

Unlike the EU, South Korea does not have laws requiring foreign streaming services to produce or invest in local content.
