- Netflix begins production on "The Generals", a Korean political drama about former presidents Roh Tae‑woo and Chun Doo‑hwan.
- Yoon Jong‑bin directs his first feature since 2018, reuniting with Netflix after the 2022 series "Narco‑Saints".
- Moonlight Film co‑produces with Sanai Pictures, expanding Netflix’s Korean content pipeline.
Why it matters: Netflix gains a high‑profile Korean drama that counters its 9‑10% stock decline after Reed, while rivals lose a chance to capture the same audience and see subscriber churn slow.
