EBS in South Korea to Air The Fixies

PlayBig has secured a deal with EBS in South Korea for all six seasons of The Fixies.

Owned and managed by Riki Group and produced by Aeroplane Productions, The Fixies follows the comical misadventures of Tom Thomas and his secret friendship with Fixies Simka and Nolik and their Fixie schoolmates Fire, Digit, Toola and Verda. The edutainment STEM animation series is slated to debut in South Korea on EBS1 and EBS2.

Frédéric Puech, managing director of PlayBig, said: “We are delighted to partner with Aeroplane and the Riki Group for the international distribution of The Fixies. This hugely entertaining edutainment STEM series has already been a hit in its home market and has achieved massive international reach, which is reflected in the agreements we have already secured in major territories around the world.”

Li-Yeon Lee, acquisition manager at EBS, said: “We are delighted to have acquired The Fixies; the series is performing strongly in Korea, and our young audiences find the show both interesting and educational.”
