Chorokbaem Media Signs 8 Billion KRW JTBC Drama Supply Contract

[Asia Economy Reporter Yoo Hyun-seok] Chorokbaem Media announced on the 24th that it has signed a contract worth 8 billion KRW with ‘JTBC Studio’ for the production and supply of the JTBC drama My Liberation Notes (directed by Kim Seok-yoon, written by Park Hae-young). This amount corresponds to 17.17% of last year’s sales and the drama is scheduled to air as a total of 16 episodes.

The new JTBC drama My Liberation Notes, produced by Chorokbaem this time, is the comeback work of writer Park Hae-young, who belongs to Chorokbaem, released two years after My Mister, and has been attracting strong public interest even before its broadcast.

With honest and straightforward language and lingering lines, writer Park Hae-young, who captivates viewers with every work she writes, is expected to offer another kind of comfort, empathy, and warm laughter through My Liberation Notes.

Chorokbaem, which houses many star writers including Park Hae-young, is leading the market by emphasizing its solid lineup of writers as its top competitive advantage.

A Chorokbaem official said, “Chorokbaem possesses the highest level of financial capability among small- and medium-sized drama production companies in Korea,” and added, “This year, we will aggressively expand our drama lineup through pre-production and do our best to target global OTT platforms such as Netflix and Coupang Play.”

Meanwhile, My Liberation Notes is a work that depicts the liberation stories of three siblings, each with their own unique life, who are exhausted from difficult and tiring lives. The cast includes acclaimed actors Lee Min-ki, Kim Ji-won, Son Seok-gu, and Lee El, and it is scheduled to air in the first half of next year.
