DramaFever Lines Up First Original Production

NEW YORK: The online video service DramaFever is presenting its first-ever original production, with the Korean pop-music documentary BIGBANG: MADE 2015 Concert to debut November 11.

The documentary follows the recently concluded U.S. tour of the Korean pop act BIGBANG. It marks the first original for DramaFever, which has co-produced two dramas before (Heirs and Tomorrow’s Cantabile), and is also its first to be unscripted.

Suk Park, the president of DramaFever, commented: “The ability for music to cross barriers and transcend culture is undeniable. It's one of the reasons K-pop has become a global phenomenon. As one of the biggest and most unique acts, BIGBANG has set itself apart as the vanguard of the genre. This is why the BIGBANG: MADE 2015 Concert is our first foray into original programming. It's clear from our internal metrics that our core audience of multicultural Millennials are rabid fans of K-pop. We look forward to hearing their response."
