The romantic comedy, starring Şükrü Özyıldız and Burcu Özberk, will be the first Korean adaptation of Turkish content.
Inter Medya announced that the series Love Undercover, produced by O3 Medya, will have its first Korean adaptation. This is a result of a pioneering agreement between the Turkish company and one of the leading production companies in South Korea, a territory to which they aspire to extend their content.
The romantic comedy, starring Şükrü Özyıldız and Burcu Özberk, will be adapted into a South Korean version whose script is being developed by some of Korea’s top screenwriters. Details about the local cast and the remake will be released soon. It will be the first Korean adaptation of Turkish content.
Inter Medya, which has already licensed the remake rights to popular series such as Bitter Lands, Mrs. Fazilet and Her Daughters, and Black Money Love, continues to lead the industry by taking the rights to the remake of Love Undercover, which aired on Now in Turkey.
Can Okan, founder and CEO of Inter Medya, noted that adding another milestone to the global success of Turkish content is incredibly exciting. “Thanks to the adaptations of our titles into local languages, we are expanding our industry’s reach and achieving global success. As Inter Medya, we are delighted to be at the forefront of this success in Korea,” he said.
“We are delighted to have licensed the rights to the remake of Love Undercover to South Korea. Until now, Korean adaptations have been broadcast in Turkey. This time, we are delighted to license the remake rights of a Turkish format to South Korea. We intend to introduce Turkish content to new regions with these remake rights. We expect this to be the first of many such ventures,” said Pelin Koray, Inter Medya’s Director of Sales, Acquisition and Strategy.
