    Subway has a huge ad presence in Korea and you’ll see a lot of shows where characters are eating it.

      Korea has a huge ad presence in general. Shows will be derailed for a 3 minute ad break as the characters all coo about some product without breaking character. As an American, they’re the only country that I think has capitalism worse than us. And that’s saying something.

    Does Subway sponsor them or something? I swear I’ve seen similar scenes in the last couple shows I’ve watched.

      Yeah, Subway is a major sponsor of K-Dramas. You’ll see LOTS of scenes of people eating subway in them.
