He is currently at work developing a big-budget film that he will direct and a series, where he will be the showrunner and direct some episodes. The moves expand Netflix’s current program to ramp up its live action Japanese content which is crucial for success in the local market and is also increasingly being watched by international audiences.
The global streaming giant has had considerable success in East Asia, but it has had to dig deep into local content to achieve success in Japan and South Korea. It has licensed, co-produced and developed original content in both places. A company like Netflix that can offer unitary decision-making, creative freedom and bigger production resources has the potential to attract significant local writing and directing talent. While Korean market conditions are not identical, these attributes were responsible for attracting “Parasite” director Bong Joon-ho to Netflix to make 2017 fantasy film “Okja” and triggered other talent to follow.
