production of “Blood Free”
Director – Park Cheol-hwan
Director of the upcoming film “출장수사(loosely translated as Field Investigation)” and co-director of the series “Grid.”
Screenplay – Lee Soo-yeon
Renowned for crafting scripts for acclaimed productions such as “Stranger,” “Stranger Season 2,” “Life,” and “Grid,” Lee Soo-yeon swiftly ascended to stardom with her debut masterpiece, “Stranger.” While the exceptional performances of actors like Cho Seung-woo, Bae Doo-na, Yoo Jae-myung, and Lee Joon-hyuk undoubtedly played a role, the driving force behind the triumph of “Stranger” was Lee Soo-yeon’s captivating screenplay. Displaying the artistry of a robust script, she achieved both commercial success and critical acclaim without resorting to the inclusion of a romantic subplot between the lead characters.
Although “Stranger 2” continued the success story, challenges emerged in the overall quality of Lee Soo-yeon’s other dramas outside the “Stranger” series. Criticisms were so pronounced that doubts surfaced regarding the authorship of these dramas by the same writer. Notably, the most recent endeavor, “Grid,” faced severe scrutiny. Park Cheol-hwan, who co-directed “Grid,” is now taking the reins as the sole director for the upcoming series “Blood Free” in the aftermath of these challenges.
behind the scenes of “Blood Free”
- The production budget for the project has been disclosed to be over KRW 24 billion. With 10 episodes in the series, this translates to a substantial KRW 2.4 billion per episode. Considering that the drama wasn’t initially planned under Disney+, this amount is noteworthy.
