Primary data collection was carried out through online interviews with a number of informants from the k-drama audience of The World of The Married who were taken randomly from Instagram accounts. The results of this study indicate that the interaction between the audience and k-drama. The World of The Married gives rise to parasocial relationships with the following three characteristics, empathy toward the performer, seeking companionship, and imagined friendship. Parasocial relationships that exist are influenced by factors of motivation, identification and similarity. Thus, in the concept of interaction and parasocial relationships, Korean drama audiences can be grouped at the level of entertainment social-value and intense-personal feeling.
