Upon receiving the revised contract, director Park Man-deok of the Contents Business Headquarters carefully checked the contract. After that, he checked the contract in Chinese. The contract written in Chinese was not a part that could be confirmed even if manager Park Man-deok checked it.

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah."

The person in charge of the legal team, who is the final confirmation, answered after swallowing the chip once. Park Man-deok stood up and spoke to the employees who were looking haggard from working overtime for several days due to the sudden progress of work.

"Early tomorrow morning, I decided to sign up with the CEO, the production love, and the Chinese side. You've had a lot of trouble these past few days! This contract is super-successful! Bonus pay will come down. I'll tell the CEO well too.... Let's get off work now!"

Park Man-deok's words brought life to the employees' expressions, which were like zombies. The staff got up one by one and put on their outerwear. Performance-based pay was also performance-based, but the fact that they're able to leave work seemed more gratifying right away.

Park Man-deok arranged the contracts in the file folder and picked up the overcoat he had draped over his chair. Maybe it was because he ate too much Bulgogi Baekban for a late-night snack, that's why he's stomach looked more bulging than yesterday, but it was okay.

Tomorrow was truly a day to hit the 'big hit' both as an SVS broadcasting company and as a personal career of Director Park Man-deok.

<Lovers from Space> was a work that had a lot of concerns within the broadcasting station prior to its production. Although writer Oh Young-ji writes well, she was a character who performed well in family dramas mainly targeting housewives. It was unknown whether such a writer would be able to write a romantic comedy well. It wasn't just a romantic comedy, it was a sci-fi romance comedy.

However, since it became a comeback work for a super star named Wang Hee-jin, it was impossible not to be organized. It was already enough just because it was Wang Hee-jin's comeback work. In addition, KK's Kang Do-wook was added as the male lead.

There was a reason why broadcasting companies cast idols as main actors despite various acting controversies.

topicality. Rather than using a nameless supporting actor, using an idol member was much better in terms of popularity and profit.

However, in the case of Do-wook, he was a person who was not worried about controversy over his acting ability, so it was worth calling it a 'big hit casting' as a broadcasting station.

In addition, Do-wook was not only a popular star in Korea, but a Hallyu star who swept all over Asia. No matter what the ratings were in Korea, exports throughout Asia were confirmed. Shortly after the news that Do-wook had been cast came out, offers for sales came straight from China and Japan.

Since the Korean Wave craze broke out in dramas, content exports have been a field that can generate greater profits than advertising. There were cases where it became popular in Korea, and depending on the casting, there were cases where it was exported during production.

In fact, even if it's a highly anticipated film, there were many cases where steam leaked when the lid was opened in Korea, so it was strategically right to sell it if it could be sold in advance.

Park Man-deok is certain of the success of <Lovers from Outer Space> to some extent after seeing the preview of the first episode. So they immediately delayed setting export pricing. It is a win-win. There were many who doubted the choice of Park Man-deok, both from above and from below. Even if his predictions were wrong after the broadcast, Park's idea was that he would be able to export at an average level.
