In technology, South Korea is a very advanced nation. But when we talk about citizens, elderly people are very conservative about certain things. LGBTQ is still considered a sensitive topic. But the younger generation is more friendly and open to these topics. There are not so many K-Dramas based on LGBTQ+ as you can barely find a full-length drama.
