STUDIO X+U has become the night of 'The Hunter with the Mess', 'The Good Race', ', It has earned the title of `Well-made Drama Production Company' for its mid-form hits such as `Hi Cookie`. This time, it has expanded its content spectrum by challenging short-drama production in line with MZ generation's preference for rapid development and intuitive story development.
Half of the eight short dramas are based on the popular IP of Naver Webtoon. 'The Last Bad Girl', 'Jabangui', 'Sister War' and 'Spurman' are proven popular works with an average rating of 9.9, and especially 'Spurman' is a box office hit that continued into season 5, so the news of the video has drawn attention. The other four episodes are original short dramas produced by STUDIO X+U, such as `Suzy Suzy', 'Excited Romance', 'Die Suzy', 'Die Suzy', 'Die Suzy', and 'Bad Thing You Did to Your Boss', which are expected to satisfy the diverse tastes of both webtoon fandom and short-form viewers.
The casting lineup is also spectacular. Oh Jeong-yeon, Cho Seung-hee, and Kim Hyung-min appear in Suzy Suzy, and Kang Min-ah and Song Byung-geun appear in 「The Last Mistress」. In addition, Jeon Joon-ho and Go Woo-ri joined 'Spurman' to harmonize the newcomers and actors with solid acting skills.
Lee Deok-jae, executive director of LG Uplus STUDIO X+U, expressed his confidence, saying, `STUDIO X+U, which gained sympathy from the global MZ generation with mid-form contents, has been able to collaborate with Naver to pave the way for a new short-form drama. We will continue to evolve into various genres and materials and establish ourselves as the best short-form content producer.'
The eight short dramas will be released sequentially on Naver TV and Naver's streaming platform Zizik from September 30th. Amid the rapid rise of short-form trends around the world, attention is being paid to how the joint project will resonate in the global market.
