South Korean media firms including KBS, JEI TV and EBS have picked up factual and children’s programming from Singapore-based distributor Bomanbridge Media.

KBS doc Atlantic: Fire in the Ocean

KBS took the documentary Atlantic: Fire in the Ocean, which explores a vast chain of volcanic mountains on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, while JEI TV acquired The Wonder of Dogs, celebrating the canine and its history.

JEI TV also took lifestyle series Pure Design, while EBS will air kids’ animated sketch show Oddbods from Singapore’s One Animation.

Sonia Fleck, CEO of Bomanbridge, said: “International content sales into Korea has greatly reduced over the last few years due to the phenomenal popularity of local Korean content.

“Despite that, Bomanbridge has maintained a successful stream of sales in Korea due to our curated market relevant approach.”
