all set against a backdrop of resentment against America’s historical imperialistic policies in Korea and North-South tensions.
Moving’s estimated 50 billion won (around $38 million) budget, which makes it one of South Korea’s most expensive shows—each episode costing an estimated $1.9 million. It shows, too. Moving is beautifully choreographed, tightly written, and possesses unusually strong CGI for a K-drama. For that investment, Disney—owner of a majority stake in Hulu—has pushed Moving hard in East Asia and it shouldn’t come as a surprise that it’s become the most-watched show in South Korea.
Of course this is the show that would get American companies like Disney to invest heavily. I have to wonder what the cost sharing looked like. What this even a “Korean” show? Or was it purely funded by American money? How much of the funding was for ESG ratings?
LOL
