About

This dataset offers an insight into Korean dramas produced between 2015 and 2023. It serves as a valuable resource for anyone passionate about Korean drama and data science, allowing for exploration of the genre. The data is a distinct collection, building upon a previous "Top 100 Korean Drama" dataset, and provides a richer array of information on dramas, user reviews, and actors. Sourced from MyDramaList.com, a community platform for Asian drama and film enthusiasts, it facilitates analysis of fan engagement, drama characteristics, and community recommendations. The dataset is particularly useful for educational purposes and for those looking to integrate their love for K-Drama with data analysis. It comprises four distinct files: korean_drama.csv, recommendations.csv, review.csv, and wiki_actor.csv.

Columns

The korean_drama.csv file includes the following columns:
  • kdrama_id: A unique identifier for each Korean drama.
  • drama_name: The title of the drama.
  • year: The year the drama was released.
  • director: The name of the drama's director.
  • screenwriter: The name of the drama's screenwriter.
  • country: The country of origin for the drama, which consistently refers to Korea.
  • type: The categorisation or genre of the drama.
  • tot_eps: The total number of episodes in the drama.
  • duration: The duration of each episode in seconds, provided in a string format, retaining original website data patterns.
  • start_dt: The first aired date of the drama.
Column details for recommendations.csv, review.csv, and wiki_actor.csv are not available in the provided sample.

Distribution

The dataset is primarily available in CSV format, typical for data files. It consists of four distinct files: korean_drama.csv, recommendations.csv, review.csv, and wiki_actor.csv. The korean_drama.csv file contains 1,752 unique Korean drama entries, each with a unique drama ID and name. While the exact number of rows for recommendations.csv, review.csv, and wiki_actor.csv is not specified, korean_drama.csv includes details on total episodes, with the majority having between 1 and 15.9 episodes. Episode durations vary widely, ranging from 60 to 9,180 seconds, with a significant number falling between 60 and 4,620 seconds.

Usage

This dataset is ideally suited for:
  • Data exploration and analysis for Korean drama enthusiasts.
  • Developing and testing recommender systems for entertainment content.
  • Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks using drama reviews and descriptions.
  • Studying trends in Korean drama production, including popular directors, screenwriters, and episode structures.
  • Analysing user engagement and community recommendations on Asian drama platforms.
  • Educational projects for students interested in data science applied to media and entertainment.

Coverage

The dataset's geographic scope is focused solely on Korea, as indicated by the country of origin. The time range for the dramas spans from 2015 to 2023, with data collected as of 9th August 2023. While the dataset focuses on this period, there is a potential for acquiring more data on dramas aired prior to 2015 if requested.
