Social Media Take Off
Lots of people are loving TikTok these days, with searches for it going up like crazy over the past few years. Facebook is also getting better with Facebook Watch, but TikTok is growing super fast, especially when everyone was stuck at home during lockdowns. And as 5G internet gets bigger, more people are going to be watching videos on social media.
Podcasting Become Main Stream
Podcasting used to be just for fun, but now it’s a big deal. In the US alone, more than 164 million people listen to podcasts every month! It’s not just regular folks making podcasts either; big companies are getting in on it with professional shows and ads. Companies like Wondery and Spotify are buying up popular podcasts and making the podcasting world even bigger.
Fan Support Creator Directly
More and more people are ditching cable TV and blocking ads online. So, creators are using sites like Patreon for direct support from their fans. Instead of relying on ads or big companies, creators can make money directly from the people who love their stuff. It’s working out well for popular creators, who can give special content to their supporters.
This shows that entertainment is getting more personal and focused on specific interests. It’s all thanks to new technology and what people like you and me prefer.
Korean Pop Culture Goes Worldwide
Korean stuff, like movies, food, and music, is getting really popular all over the world. Remember when “Parasite” won those big awards? And K-pop music and those eating videos (mukbang) are super famous too. South Korea’s culture is making a big splash everywhere!
More Streaming Service Emerge
There are more and more streaming services coming out, like Crunchyroll for anime and Disney+ with lots of movies and shows. They’re becoming really popular. Experts think these streaming services could make over $146 billion a year by 2028. The competition between them is getting intense!
Conclusion
A dynamic and vibrant entertainment landscape is emerging in 2024-2025 as a result of technological advancements and consumer preferences that are changing. Podcasts and social media platforms like TikTok are becoming increasingly popular, and audiences are seeking more personalized and engaging content.
