Source Policy

Drama Nexus aggregates and organizes information from the following publicly available sources:

• TMDB (The Movie Database) — drama metadata including titles, synopses, cast lists, episode counts, networks, genres, posters, and backdrop images. TMDB is a community-maintained database used widely across the film and television industry.
• YouTube — trailers, OST music videos, interviews, making-of content, and review videos. Video thumbnails, titles, and channel names are displayed alongside embedded players where applicable.
• Google Maps and Places API — addresses, geographic coordinates, place names, photos, and business details for filming locations and food spots.
• Official broadcaster and streaming provider websites — broadcast schedules, official synopses, and episode information from networks such as KBS, SBS, tvN, Netflix, Disney+, and others.
• Public references including news articles, Korea Tourism Organization resources, local government tourism pages, and published production notes.

We believe in transparency. Where information is drawn from a specific source, we include a link or attribution so readers can verify it independently. Filming location and food spot entries may include source URLs, source labels, and where available, source quotes that support the connection between a place and a drama scene.

Images and metadata loaded from TMDB remain subject to the TMDB API Terms of Use. Video content provided by YouTube remains subject to the YouTube Terms of Service and the YouTube API Services Terms of Service. We do not claim ownership of any third-party images, videos, or data.

If you believe a source has been improperly credited or omitted, please contact us through our contact page.

When assembling guide content, we prioritize information from:

• Official providers — broadcaster and streaming platform listings are the primary authority for drama metadata, broadcast details, and cast information.
• Established databases — TMDB serves as our primary structured metadata source due to its broad coverage and active community maintenance.
• Government and tourism resources — official tourism boards and local government pages are prioritized for location and place information.
• Reputable news outlets — entertainment news articles are used for supplementary context and are cross-referenced where possible.

Information from user-generated forums or unverified social media posts is treated as unconfirmed and is not published unless corroborated by a more reliable source.

Guide pages include links to external websites for reference and verification. These websites are controlled by their respective owners and are not operated by Drama Nexus. We are not responsible for the content or policies of external sites. External sources may change, remove, or restrict their content after a guide page is published.
