SILVER SPOON PICKED UP FOR REMAKE IN KOREA
Jun 24, 2019
South Korean producer Supermoon Pictures has acquired remake rights for Silver Spoon, the hit Russian crime thriller from Sreda Production Company. This is the first time a Russian drama format has been picked up for adaptation in South Korea.
“I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of Russian drama and concluded that this story and characters will translate well as a Korean remake,” says Mr Insoo Shin, CEO of Supermoon Pictures.
Silver Spoon is the story of a young man, Igor, whose father grows tired of his playboy lifestyle and arranges a job for him in the police force. Though Igor is lazy, spoiled and unmotivated, he shows an instinct for detective work and soon starts to unravel mysteries that have long evaded his colleagues - including the case of his own mother’s death, where his investigations turn up uncomfortable questions for his father.

Eccho Rights lands Turkish dramas on Portugal's SIC
Eccho Rights has secured a significant deal with Portuguese free-to-air broadcaster SIC, licensing a string of acclaimed Turkish drama series to the channel. The agreement sees SIC acquire I Am Mother, My Home My Destiny, A Journey to Belong, Elif and Wounded Birds, adding a substantial new tranche of Turkish drama content to the broadcaster's schedule.
The deal was concluded by Melis Hamamcıoğlu, Sales Executive at Eccho Rights for Portugal, and comes ahead of the international content market Content Europe, which takes place in Lisbon this week (April 21–23).
Melis Hamamcıoğlu commented: "This is a really exciting moment for Eccho Rights in Portugal. SIC remains the country's biggest broadcaster, and bringing such a strong and diverse slate of Turkish titles to their schedule reflects the growing confidence Portuguese audiences have shown in this genre. With Content Europe taking place in Lisbon this week, the timing could not feel more apt — it is a wonderful demonstration of the momentum Turkish drama continues to build right across Europe."
The deal reinforces Eccho Rights' growing footprint in the Iberian market, following recent sales activity across Spain and Latin America.
