Further, the companies have expanded their existing content cooperation efforts in Korea and plan to co-produce a Korean scripted drama and a documentary series. JTBC and A+E\u2019s first co-production, a talk show featuring a Korean pop star, is currently in production and slated for a June 2019 premiere on both Lifetime in Korea and JTBC.<\/p>\n<p>Edward Sabin, executive managing director of international at A+E Networks, said: \u201cJTBC is one of the top-rated general entertainment networks in South Korea. They have created some of Korea\u2019s biggest hits in the last decade, with a number of their shows successfully formatted in countries around the world. We are thrilled to announce an expanded collaboration with JTBC. This is a major component of our strategic objective we announced in 2017 which was to create and aggregate premium Korean content for representation worldwide.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jeongdo Hong, president of JoongAng Media Group, added: \u201cThis partnership with A+E Networks represents an important step towards JTBC\u2019s vision of transforming into a global content studio. A+E Network\u2019s international programming pedigree, as well as their innovative content productions, make A+E an exciting partner for JTBC especially at this time where we have a diverse range of global projects in development. We are especially looking forward to working closely with a storied company such as A+E on developing JTBC\u2019s premium originals in the North and South American market.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A+E Networks and the Korean media company JTBC have signed a strategic formats representation agreement, which will expand the former\u2019s format catalog and the latter\u2019s reach in the U.S.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1033,"featured_media":5441,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[135,781],"class_list":["post-5440","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-ae-networks","tag-jtbc"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>A+E Networks &amp; JTBC Korea Align for Formats, Co-Production Partnership - TVASIA<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/ae-networks-jtbc-korea-align-for-formats-co-production-partnership\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"A+E Networks &amp; JTBC Korea Align for Formats, Co-Production Partnership - TVASIA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"A+E Networks and the Korean media company JTBC have signed a strategic formats representation agreement, which will expand the former\u2019s format catalog and the latter\u2019s reach in the U.S.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/ae-networks-jtbc-korea-align-for-formats-co-production-partnership\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVASIA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2019-05-16T14:23:02+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2019-05-16T17:21:51+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2015\/09\/ae-networks-logo-519.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"1\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/ae-networks-jtbc-korea-align-for-formats-co-production-partnership\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/ae-networks-jtbc-korea-align-for-formats-co-production-partnership\/\",\"name\":\"A+E Networks &amp; JTBC Korea Align for Formats, Co-Production Partnership - TVASIA\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2019-05-16T14:23:02+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2019-05-16T17:21:51+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/ae-networks-jtbc-korea-align-for-formats-co-production-partnership\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/ae-networks-jtbc-korea-align-for-formats-co-production-partnership\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/ae-networks-jtbc-korea-align-for-formats-co-production-partnership\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"A+E Networks &amp; JTBC Korea Align for Formats, Co-Production Partnership\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/\",\"name\":\"TVASIA\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\",\"name\":\"Chelsea Regan\",\"description\":\"Chelsea Regan is the managing editor of World Screen.
