HONG KONG, March 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- CNN Original Series K-Everything hosted, and executive produced by Tony-award nominated actor, director, producer, and social advocate Daniel Dae Kim will premiere on May 9 on CNN International. A cultural exploration of Korea's explosive global influence, the series will air four episodes during the month of May.
"It's both a personal and professional thrill to be able to showcase Korea through our series, K-Everything," said Daniel Dae Kim. "There's never been more interest in its people and culture, so it feels like the perfect time to explore the dynamics of its success. Whether you're already a K-expert, or a newbie, we hope you'll be able to gain a unique and fresh perspective on a place that means so much to me."
Across four immersive episodes, Kim explores the forces behind Korea's cultural rise, tracing how distinct traditions evolved into global phenomena. In Seoul, the beating heart of the K-pop industry, he meets with some of the biggest stars in the business to reveal how Korean pop harnessed the devotion of worldwide superfans to dominate the charts. From K-drama film sets to cutting-edge special effects studios, he examines the dramatic ascent of K-film, from an era of strict censorship to Oscar triumphs and record- shattering streaming success for K-dramas. Kim attends a vibrant kimchi festival in Pyeongchang. He discovers how K-food is reshaping dining across the globe, from street food to three Michelin-starred restaurants. Finally, in photo studios, factories and beauty clinics, he unpacks the innovation and influence behind K-beauty, and how South Korea became the cosmetics capital of the world.
"The global rise of Korean culture is one of the most exciting stories of our time and a powerful example of Korean soft power" said Ellana Lee, Group Senior Vice President, GM APAC, and Global Head of Productions for CNN International. "Through Daniel Dae Kim's perspective, K-Everything brings CNN International audiences inside the creativity and innovation driving Korea's influence across music, film, food and beauty, and why it continues to captivate people around the world."
Executive Producers for K-Everything are Daniel Dae Kim, along with Amy Entelis, Ellana Lee, Jon Jensen, Katie Hinman and Ryan Smith for CNN Original Series. K-Everything is the first collaboration between the network's CNN Originals and APAC-based Global Productions teams.
Additionally, a dedicated digital hub featuring a rich suite of digital and social content celebrating Korean creativity and cultural impact can be found at https://edition.cnn.com/world/k-everything.
K-Everything continues the legacy of CNN Original Series' host-led storytelling that examines global culture and the human experience, joining an award-winning library of premium programming streaming on the CNN app.

CNN ORIGINAL SERIES "K-EVERYTHING" WITH DANIEL DAE KIM PREMIERES SATURDAY, MAY 9 ON CNN INTERNATIONAL
PARIS, May 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- DeepQure, a clinical-stage medical device company, today announced robust 3-month clinical data from its HERO-HTN-FIH study during a featured presentation at EuroPCR 2026. The interim results demonstrate that the HyperQure™ extravascular renal denervation (RDN) system provides a powerful and safe therapeutic option for patients with uncontrolled hypertension.
The HERO-HTN-FIH study, a multi-center trial conducted at leading academic medical centers in Korea, met all primary efficacy and safety endpoints. At the three-month follow-up, patients treated with the HyperQure™ system experienced a median reduction of 25.0 mmHg in 24-hour ambulatory systolic blood pressure (24-h ASBP, p=0.008) and a median reduction of 39.5 mmHg in office systolic blood pressure (Office SBP, p=0.002). Remarkably, 70% of the study participants successfully achieved their target blood pressure of less than 140 mmHg.
Beyond the primary metrics, the study highlighted a significant decrease in medication burden. The median number of antihypertensive medications per patient dropped from 6.0 at baseline to 4.5 at three months, with 40% of patients requiring protocol-guided medication reduction due to the procedure's high efficacy. Throughout the study, zero device-related major adverse events (MAEs) were reported, confirming the safety and tolerability of the laparoscopic/robotic extravascular procedure.
"The highly encouraging clinical outcomes from Korea, have given us immense confidence in the results currently being generated in our ongoing U.S. study at world-renowned institutions like Stanford University and Mayo Clinic," said Chanho Park, Chairman of the Board of DeepQure. "With 15 cases successfully performed to date, we are aggressively moving toward our next milestone—the Global Pivotal Study—and are in active discussions with the FDA to bring this transformative technology to the global market."
DeepQure's global clinical momentum is supported by an elite network of international authorities, including Drs. David Kandzari, Herbert Aronow, and Raymond Townsend, ensuring the highest level of clinical integrity as the company advances toward its global pivotal trials.
About Uncontrolled Hypertension and RDN
Uncontrolled hypertension affects an estimated 30% of hypertensive patients globally and is associated with a significantly elevated risk of stroke and heart failure. It is clinically defined as systolic blood pressure that remains above 140mmHg despite pharmacological treatment. RDN is an interventional therapy designed to lower blood pressure by disrupting overactive sympathetic nerves surrounding the renal arteries.
About DeepQure & HyperQure™
DeepQure is a clinical-stage medtech company developing next-generation RDN treatments. Its lead product, HyperQure™, is a proprietary extravascular system designed for 360° circumferential ablation of renal nerves from outside the vessel. HyperQure™ holds the Korean MFDS Breakthrough Device Designation and ISO 13485 certification.
