Korean dramas (K-Dramas) are widely popular among Indonesian youth, including students of the Faculty of Islamic Studies (FAI), and are believed to influence their mindset, lifestyle, and religious behavior. This study aims to determine: (1) the level of K-Drama viewing intensity among 2021 students of the Islamic Education Program at Universitas Singaperbangsa Karawang, (2) the students' religious behavior, and (3) the influence of K-Drama viewing on their religious behavior. This quantitative correlational study involved 65 students as the sample. Data were collected using a validated and reliable questionnaire and analyzed using simple linear regression with SPSS version 25. The results showed that the intensity of K-Drama viewing was at a moderate level (78%), and religious behavior also fell into the moderate category (72%). The regression analysis indicated a positive and significant influence of K-Drama viewing on religious behavior, with a significance value of 0.000 (<0.05) and a contribution of 52.5%. However, this influence is relatively limited compared to other contributing factors affecting religious behavior.
