The 2010s were the decade of "indie" movies, in reference not to studio types but to a style of storytelling that started in the late 2000s. In comedy-dramas, especially coming-of-age stories, this style can best be described as quirky or whimsical.

Annyeonghaseyo! Whether you live in South Korea or anywhere else on the planet, the problem of not knowing what to watch is the same. It's easy for all of us to get the impression that Netflix is full of crap or that you've already watched everything you need to watch.
There are many reasons as to why this happens, but a big one is how Netflix algorithms work. They're biased corporate algorithms that put in front of you what Netflix spent money on, not what is actually good.
To counter that and to solve the frustration of spending more time looking for a good thing rather than watching one, agoodmovietowatch.com suggests human-curated movies and shows. We're an alternative to Netflix's algorithms. We only suggest highly-rated (good) movies. Below is the list of the best ones on Netflix South Korea, but you can find many more by going back to our homepage (click on "all picks" at the top left of the page.)
Recently, we started a new section titled "Spotlight: LGBTQ+ Stories". The goal of this category is to showcase quality movies where at least one of the main characters doesn’t identify as heterosexual or cisgender. This includes stories about the LGBTQ+ experience, but not just. A good example is We the Animals, which is about the main characters dealing with their parents' decaying mixed-race relationship while exploring their own sexuality. These stories and experiences, while an integral part of human history, are only recently are starting to be told in mainstream film. Below are five great ones we recommend on Netflix.
The idea to start A24 came to founder Daniel Katz when he was driving on the Italian highway by the same name. From then, the venture went from a fleeting concept to an independent distribution company to one of the biggest stamps of quality a movie can have today.
In its young seven years of existence, A24 has seen its movies nominated to the Oscars an impressive 25 times. And if you still don't know who I'm talking about, you might recognize some of their recent releases: Midsommar, Jonah Hill's Mid90s, Lady Bird, Moonlight, Good Time,The Lobster, Ex Machina, The Witch, and Swiss Army Man to name a few. The film distribution and production company has also taken a swing at TV with the HBO hit Euphoria and the fantastic Hulu production Ramy.
But below, we count down their top movie releases that are available to stream on Netflix right now.
Europe has a long history with film - the French New Wave, Italian Neorealism, and the great Swedish movies of Ingmar Bergman. And what's happening today is equally as exciting: French thrillers, Scandinavian dramas, Irish comedies... there is just so much to discover.
This list has past Oscar nominees like I Lost My Body, a past winner of the Berlin Film Festival (On Body and Soul), and other award-sweepers. But you might be asking yourself why you haven't heard of some or all of them. The answer depends on each movie but it's often either bad marketing or that fear of subtitles. Both have nothing to do with the quality of the movies themselves.
So, friends, let's try something new. Below are the best European movies on Netflix right now.
