Munich/Cannes, 14 October 2026. Beta Film has secured a first wave of international sales for its Korean drama slate. Public broadcasters RAI in Italy and ERT in Greece have acquired the acclaimed crime thriller Snow White Must Die (16 x one hour), while Snow White Must Die and Beta’s Skam Korea - Fragile (8 x 26min), the Korean adaptation of global hit format Skam, sells also across the MENA region to MBC Shahid. Further deals are currently in negotiation.

In the vein of Memories of Murder, Snow White Must Die is based on Nele Neuhaus' bestselling German novel. The series centres on a young man who served ten years in prison for a murder he does not remember committing. After his release, he sets out to clear his name. The cast includes Byun Yo Han (Six Flying Dragons), Ko Jun (The Fiery Priest), Go Bo-gyeol (Hi Bye, Mama!) and Kim Bo-ra (Touch). Written by Seo Joo-yeon (Save Me 2) and directed by Byun Young Joo (Queen Mantis, Helpless), the series is produced by Hidden Sequence for MBC.

Skam Korea - Fragile is the first Asian adaptation of the global hit format Skam. The hyper-realistic eight-part teen drama follows Ji Yu as she navigates academic pressure, identity, friendship and a strained relationship with her seemingly carefree boyfriend, Chan Seong. Suspecting he may be involved with popular classmate Soo Jin, Ji Yu finds support among a group of misfit girls facing challenges of their own. Directed by Ji-hoon Ahn, the series stars So-hee Kim, Eo-jin Kim, Joo-han Gong, Hee-song Kwon, and Ji-won Moon.

The acquisition of both titles marks a strategic expansion for Beta Film into one of the world’s most influential drama markets, South Korea.

Beta Film handles international sales for both titles.
