Disney+ is adding another series to its fast-growing Korean drama library, picking up the action spy show The Tyrant.
The series tells the thrilling story of the race to find a bioweapon that is stolen during a secret handover between Korean and US intelligence agencies.

Furious about being kept in the dark, the U.S. demands all samples be handed over and the project be immediately shut down.

The biggest fantasy K-drama to premiere in recent years was tvN’s and Netflix’s Alchemy of Souls. The K-drama’s storyline enthralled audiences in every episode as a fabricated mystical world combined magic, fated love, and destiny. Alchemy of Souls was divided into two parts by the Hong Sisters. While the Alchemy of Souls Season 2 finale tied up some loose ends, fans hope for more. But an Alchemy of Souls Season 3 is off the table.

BBC Studios’ crime series “Criminal Justice” is to be adapted for local consumption in South Korea. The move follows an agreement between BBC and producer Studio M. A local broadcaster has not been revealed.
The Korean version will be directed by Myoung Woo Lee (Backstreet Rookie) and written by Soon Kyu Kwon (Warrior Baek Dong Soo). Top Korean actors Soo Hyun Kim (It’s Okay To Not Be Okay) and Seoung Won Cha (A Korean Odyssey) will star in the drama series. The version will be co-produced with Studio M, Chorokbaem media and Gold Medalist.
The original “Criminal Justice” series, created by Peter Moffat, centers around a young man’s ordeal against the justice system after he is accused of a murder he cannot remember committing. It enjoyed significant success in the U.K. market — where it picked up two BAFTA Television Awards in 2008 for best drama serial and best writer,...

1. The Guest
With its triangle of investigators, a Catholic Priest (Yoon Hwa Pyung), a Shaman (Choi Yoon) and a Police Detective (Kang Kil Yeong), “The Guest” can be best thought of as a loose spin-off of Na’s “The Wailing” (2015) even though the answers seem clearer cut in the former than the later. Like all good Gothic texts, the crisis in the present can be traced back to a trauma in the past at which the paths of the three intersect. As Bts tell us in “DNA” ‘this is not a coincidence’ (2017). In the present, an outbreak of violent crimes for no apparent reason bring the three together again as they search for the demon behind the outbreak whose capture would resolve their traumatic pasts. Much darker in its approach than many horror themed kdramas, “The Guest”’s tight scripting, clever casting and cinematography mark it out as a must see.
