Studio Dragon

Studio Dragon is one of the few Korean drama companies that genuinely behaves like a scaled studio system. The company's own English materials describe it as Korea's leading scripted TV studio, and the numbers help explain why: as of 4Q 2025 it reported 278 premium global IPs, 4,271 episodes, 317 creators, and sales across more than 200 markets.

That scale is not abstract bragging. It is why Studio Dragon keeps appearing behind modern reference-point dramas instead of one-off wins. The official portfolio runs through Signal, Guardian: The Lonely and Great God, Mr. Sunshine, Crash Landing on You, Sweet Home, The Glory, Queen of Tears, and newer titles that keep the company positioned between domestic broadcast strength and global streaming demand.

On HITKULTR, Studio Dragon matters because it changed the expectations around how Korean scripted IP can be developed, packaged, and exported. It is not only a successful producer under CJ ENM. It is one of the companies that helped turn premium K-drama into a repeatable international business model.
