Delightfully Deceitful Debuts in Japan & Korea

CJ ENM’s drama Delightfully Deceitful, starring Chun Woo-hee and Kim Dong-wook, has been released simultaneously in Japan and Korea.

The drama will be available in Japan exclusively on U-NEXT immediately after it airs on the CJ ENM-owned K-content channel tvN and the CJ ENM-launched OTT TVING.

Produced by CJ ENM’s Studio Dragon, Delightfully Deceitful is a story that brings two individuals who exist on opposite ends of the emotion spectrum together while embarking on a scheme for revenge.

U-NEXT’s CEO, Tenshin Tsutsumi, said: “Boasting a massive lineup of Korean dramas, U-NEXT has many K-drama fans eagerly awaiting our latest releases. U-NEXT is proud to become the home of the highly anticipated new show Delightfully Deceitful, which viewers will be able to enjoy at the same time as it airs in Korea. We’re thrilled to bring you the latest Korean dramas as soon as possible so you can join in on the excitement with other fans!”

Sebastian Kim, director of CJ ENM international content sales and acquisitions, added: “With a great partnership with U-NEXT, CJ ENM is launching more simultaneous content in Japan, including Delightfully Deceitful. We hope to distribute many of our well-made upcoming titles to be serviced at the same time as Korea.”

The director of Delightfully Deceitful, Jamie K Lee of Studio Dragon, said: “The narrative between the characters is deeply poignant and dramatic, but the process of its reveal also appears as a cynical black comedy, and as the protagonists run towards their goal of revenge, it gives the impression of a gripping thriller where one cannot let go of the tension.”
