A remake of the hit 2006 hit K-drama
Princess Hours, which also goes by
Goong, has been ordered.
Soompi, Jae Dam Media, which owns the rights to
Princess Hours, has signed a contract with Group 8, the same production house responsible for the 2006 series.
“It’s important to continue creating new projects, but we also think that it is important from an intellectual property standpoint to actively breathe new life into good projects that already exist.
Goong will become an important case in this new IP ‘boom, ” said Hwang Nam-yong, Jae Dam Media chief executive officer.
Princess Hours, based on the South Korean comic series by Park So-hee, reimagines South Korea as a constitutional monarchy.
