Dostoyevsky is popular in many, many countries and I think it's because he's just not a political polemicist. Need one know Confucius was a failed bureaucrat to appreciate his analects?
Korean films immensely are popular, for foreign films. Americans, and many other peoples, just don't like to hear films in foreign languages, forcing them to read subtitles. English-language films get a "by" in many countries because of the long ascendancy of Hollywood: its huge budgets, star-making machines, distribution schemes.
(Black music was popular in many places here in the 50s: Black rock n' rollers (the Big Bopper), Motown (known in the South as "beach music"); "big bands" (Duke, Count); MIles and lots of other jazz figures).
