The Mentalist – Snippets
This morning I wrote about transition for our Oppa Park Sihoo-ssi and for myself. From the past to the present.
Well, the present caught up pretty quickly! We have some snippets of the Korean remake of “The Mentalist” in the Korean media!
The remake is fronted by a drama production company under Samhwa Networks 삼화네트웍스. Samhwa Networks started as a home video distributor but has since evolved into a producer of dramas for different TV stations in Korean since 1986. It has produced over a hundred dramas since.
Studio Icon is a fully owned subsidiary of Samhwa created in 2019 with the aim to create a genre that breaks away from the colours of the existing Samhwa Networks. Its focus will be on quality content including a strong team of writers and wider distribution including catering to both local Korean and overseas audience.
“The Mentalist” Korean remake will be its first work. The writer will be Sung Jinmi, who won the 2nd Broadcasting Contents Promotion Foundation’s Playbook Competition and whose key work was “The Third Hospital’. The PD will be Pyo Minsoo whose works include “Full House”, “The World They Live in”, “The Producer” and “The Third Charm”.
They are in discussion with HBO Max, an OTT online video service platform under Warner Bros for collaboration and will start filming in mid-March with the goal to produce a drama series that will involve various seasons.
Interesting snippets aren’t these? Hopefully, there will be more soon!

超感神探消息
今天早上,我提到偶吧Oppa 施厚君和我要过渡的文章。从过去过度到现在。
噢,现在很快就赶上了!今天韩国媒体上有一些关于韩国翻拍的“超感警探(超感神探)“的消息!
韩国翻拍由Samhwa Networks삼화네트웍스旗下的一家电视剧制作公司负责。Samhwa Networks起初是一家家庭视频发行商,但自1986年以来,已发展成为为韩国不同电视台制作电视剧的公司。自那时以来,该公司已制作了一百多部电视剧。
Studio Icon是Samhwa的全资子公司,创建于2019年,旨在创造一种与现有Samhwa Networks色彩不同的流派。它的重点将是高质量的内容,包括一支强大的作家团队,以及广泛的发行版,其中包括迎合韩国当地和海外观众的需求。
韩国“超感警探(超感神探)“的翻拍将是Studio Icon的第一部作品。作者将是第二届广播内容促进基金会的剧本比赛获奖者成真美编剧,其主要作品是“第三医院”。PD将是表民秀,其作品包括“满屋”,“他们生活的世界”,“制作人”和第3种魅力”。
他们正在与华纳兄弟旗下的OTT在线视频服务平台HBO Max进行合作讨论,并将于3月中旬开始拍摄,目的是制作一部涉及多季的电视剧。
有趣的消息不是吗? 希望很快会有更多!
