Secretary of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection Wang Qishan said Wednesday that Korean TV is more advanced than Chinese shows, and at its core is the use of traditional culture, the Beijing News reported.

Wang joined a panel discussion on Wednesday. He mentioned the recent Korean hit My Love From The Star and said he was thinking about how Korean dramas can capture the Chinese market or even the Western market.

"Sometimes I watch Korean drama myself and I found that the soul of it is the use of traditional culture," Wang said.
