Netnaija Korean Series My Roommate Is A Gumiho

| Drama | Similar Vibe | |-------|---------------| | Doom at Your Service | Supernatural being + contract relationship | | The Tale of the Nine-Tailed | Gumiho mythology, more action | | My Girlfriend Is a Gumiho (2010) | Classic predecessor (also cohabitation) | | Because This Is My First Life | Contract marriage, realistic cohabitation |

This paper investigates the availability and consumption of the Korean drama My Roommate Is a Gumiho (2021) on NetNaija, a prominent Nigerian file-sharing and streaming aggregation platform. While Netflix and Viki are official distributors, NetNaija represents an alternative digital infrastructure that enables access for African audiences with limited paid subscription options. The study analyzes how the drama’s themes—cohabitation, supernatural beings in modern settings, and romantic comedy tropes—travel across cultural boundaries. Using a digital ethnography approach, the paper argues that NetNaija acts as a crucial gateway for Korean popular culture into West African households, facilitating a unique form of "guerrilla Hallyu" that operates outside official licensing but significantly expands viewership. netnaija korean series my roommate is a gumiho
