What were the biggest movies and TV shows that transfixed Singaporeans in 2021? Yahoo's ranking based on searches made by users in Singapore shows that Asian content remains king here, with viewers being obsessed by K-dramas and Asian-inspired Hollywood movies.

With the Netflix series Squid Game (1st) being the talk of the town since its launch in September, it comes as no surprise that this sensational drama series emerged top of this list. South Korean shows remain well-loved among Singaporeans as they dominated the list of most searched movies and TV shows with seven out of the first eight spots, with the exception of World Wrestling Entertainment which sneaked in at No. 2, featuring the first-ever Singaporean wrestler on the network, Sean Tan, who secured a win on his debut match.
