Just like here in the West, Asian millennials are also navigating a world built on outdated systems, institutions, and ideas- and they too are ready to reshape the future.
Meet the Millennials is a documentary series that introduces us to a new generation, one that has found its voice and is determined to use it.
Told in a humorous, road-movie style, this series provides a raw and insightful look at how Asian millennials are challenging societal expectations, rethinking success, and advocating for systemic change. Can they change the system? Or must they learn to adapt?
In the first episode, Inside the Pressure Cooker, presenters Lucas De Man (BE/NL) and Hyunsin Kim (DE/KOR) explore the extreme pressures young professionals and students face in East Asia. From academic stress to career competition, they meet 100+ millennials—students, educators, engineers, artists, and activists—who share their struggles and solutions for surviving in a high-performance society.
