Here's when new episodes of The Influencer drop on Netflix
Netflix has released a new Korean competition reality series on its platform, and it'll surely grab your attention after you learn more about it. It's called The Influencer, and yes, it involves some of Korea's top social media stars.
The streaming giant has seen much success on the Korean competition reality series front, with shows like Single's Inferno, The Devil's Plan, Physical: 100 and Siren: Survive the Island all being hits. Now, with the addition of The Influencer, it looks like Netflix might have another hit on its hands.
It features a diverse bunch of contestants, specifically 77 of Korea's most popular influencers, ranging from YouTubers to TikTokers, who compete in various challenges to determine who holds the greatest power and influence. Some of the prominent contestants participating in the challenges are RISABAE, PaniBottle, Shim Euddeum, Jang Keun-suk, Sia_jiwoo, and KEJIMIN. Lee Jae-seok and Son Soo-jeong (My Little Television) co-directed the series.
On Aug. 6, Netflix dropped the first four episodes of the season on its platform. The first episode titled, "Worth," is 81 minutes long, followed by the second episode, "Influence," being 62 minutes long. The third episode, "Strategy or Luck," is 60 minutes long, and the fourth episode, "Gaze," is 56 minutes long.
So, it looks like each episode is about an hour long besides the premiere. The premiere episode was probably longer since it was the first episode. Our guess is that the remaining episodes will be about an hour long each. However, there's a possibility the season finale could be longer. It's unclear how many episodes in total will be in the first season, but it looks like there will be only seven, according to the show's title page on Netflix.
Since the first four episodes have already been released, this means there would only be three episodes left to drop. According to the show's title page on Netflix, the remaining three episodes will all be released on Tuesday, Aug. 13, 2024.
However, keep in mind that an official episode count has not been revealed. There could be more than seven episodes in the first season, which would mean the three episodes dropping on Aug. 13 wouldn't be the last batch. Once we know the official episode count, we'll let you know right away. But for now, it looks like the episodes dropping on Aug. 13 will be the last.
The Influencer is streaming now only on Netflix.
