Important genres of television shows include serial dramas (soap operas), historical dramas, variety shows, game shows, news programs, and documentaries. All three networks have produced increasingly lavish historical dramas in recent years. Some South Korean television programs are available on satellite and multicultural channels in North America. Korean dramas have become popular in other East Asian countries, with whole sets of videotapes or DVDs of series available, complete with Chinese subtitles.
Shopping channels have become quite popular in recent years as well, and the models sometimes put on entertaining acts during product pitches.
