A survey targeting some 1,500 Europeans revealed that the majority perceived computer and mobile games as the most representative cultural content of South Korea, mobile games firm Com2uS said Friday.

Com2uS is the Korean developer behind the mobile game Summoners War, which was played at the inter-country esports friendly match during the Korea-Sweden summit in June in Stockholm, Sweden.

Sixty-five percent of respondents picked games, while K-pop came in second with 19 percent.
