On Thursday, February 25, during What’s Next Korea, Netflix announced that it will be shelling out over $500 million to produce series and movies from South Korea.

This follows an earlier announcement that they’d leased two production facilities – with a combined area of over 16,000 square meters – just outside Seoul.

Here’s Netflix’s lineup of upcoming content for 2021 and beyond, with synopses from the streaming giant:

MOVIES

Moral Sense follows a seemingly clean-cut office worker who keeps his BDSM taste to himself, until his female coworker accidentally opens his mail and finds a leash. Once his secret is out, the two develop into a male-sub and female-dominant relationship. The film will be directed by Park Hyun-jin (Like for Likes.)

Carter follows a man after he wakes up in a motel room with no recollection of who he is, except for a voice in his ear that calls him “Carter.” Following the voice’s orders, Carter goes on an exhilarating mission to save a kidnapped girl. A one-scene, one-cut action film directed by Jung Byung-gil.
