South Korea is probably the second country successfully implementing it, primarily through kpop and kdrama.

South Korea also benefits from Korean food being super yummy.

What percentage of Japan's gdp is exported entertainment in the form of shows and games?

I would guess that stuff like automotive and other industrial things make up a larger share. If I remember right, all of the Subaru Forester SUVs for the North American market were made in Japan until recently.

Yeah what the larger part of the economy is doesn't really matter to me, what I'm interested in is solely this specific segment of the economy because then you can roughly estimate how big the industry needs to be (in dollars from the export) to have that kind of cultural impact.

With the way some of these Japanese media companies act, it's like the export market is a pittance to them lol
