In 2022, ENA, which made waves with “Extraordinary Attorney Woo,” is gearing up to premiere its first original TV series in 2024 titled “Midnight Studio.” Despite presenting noteworthy shows like “Good Job,” “Love Is for Suckers,” “Lies Hidden in My Garden,” and “Battle for Happiness” after the success of “Extraordinary Attorney Woo,” ENA has yet to replicate the same impact. The highly anticipated release of “Midnight Studio” in March raises questions about whether ENA can achieve similar success.
South Korea is currently leading in the production of original content, spanning TV series and movies, across various platforms. Since 2022, Olleh TV, a cable TV broadcasting company, has been creating its own original content. Additionally, ENA, operating under the same corporate umbrella, has been delivering original series content through its streaming service.
the meaning behind the title “Midnight Studio”
“The Korean title “야한 사진관,” loosely translated as “Obscene Studio,” conveys the idea of a photo studio restricted to nighttime, while simultaneously suggesting it is a place specifically designed for adult-themed photography.”
