Why do Korean IPs unlock streaming?
Many users find that Korean IP addresses show more local exclusive content when watching Netflix, such as unimported Korean dramas, live variety shows, etc. Apps for TV stations such as KBS also determine the user's region based on IP, and use a local Korean IP to use all the features properly. This involves the streaming platform's IP address-basedNetwork Location Verification MechanismThe key to bypassing authentication is a real and valid residential IP.
Three core elements of choosing a proxy IP
To achieve stable unlocking of Korean streamers, it is important to focus on these three priorities:
1. IP purity: platforms such as Netflix flag data center IPs, and only residential IPs are stable for long-term use
2. protocol adaptability: need to support Socks5/http and other common protocols, matching the proxy settings of different devices
3. network latency: China-Korea line node reduces lagging and guarantees smooth 4K video playback
