A spokesperson from production company Nemostory said, “With the participation of the Hallyu stars who are mainly singers in this drama, we’re looking to break free from the traditional concept of the TV drama and kick off another Hallyu wave.”

Deals have already been struck in Southeast Asian countries such as Thailand, and also in Japan, China and Taiwan, for ‘Super Star’ to be aired locally, and looks set to be a popular media content in the Asian media market.

‘Super Star’, of which 4 episodes have already been filmed, is scheduled to go on air on terrestrial channels in Korea in the later part of this year.
