On Location

K-drama scale production for period and contemporary series

Here is how this works in practice. Drama series production in South Korea is the global benchmark for episodic storytelling, anchored by Studio Dragon, JTBC, tvN, KBS, MBC and SBS. Reinforced by the K-content boom that has put Squid Game, Crash Landing on You and a generation of Korean prestige drama on every major streaming sites. We provide shoot support for scripted series shooting on Korean soil.

Here is the short of it. Both Korean-first commissions and global co-productions taking advantage of the country's locations, crews and 40 percent K-content cash rebate. Our team sets up teams heads from the production communities around The DMC hub and Mokdong, manages multi-episode scheduling across the Paju Studio Cube and Namyangju Studio Tricky backlots. Arranges location blocks at Joseon-era palaces, Buddhist temples, classic hanok villages in Bukchon and Andong, and the today's streetscapes of Gangnam and Itaewon.

Here is the breakdown. Period drama is one of South Korea's signature exports. We work with the costume houses, prop suppliers, set decorators and historical consultants who specialise in Goryeo, Joseon and colonial-era authenticity. Today's series shoot across the city geographies that define current Korean drama. Apartment complexes in Bundang, the Han River parks, Itaewon nightlife, Gyeonggi business districts. With permit coordination handled through district offices and the Seoul Film Commission.

Global co-productions are processed through KOFIC and the cultural treaty framework. Our team supports the two-language crews, treaty compliance records and partner introductions these structures need. Post-prod runs through Korean VFX houses and audio post facilities working to streaming-sites technical specs, making sure drama series ship at the look value the global audience now expects from Korean content.
