Crazy Maple Studio’s four-year-old short-form drama platform ReelShort and Korean studio Showbox have signed a co-production agreement to develop and produce Korean microdramas.

Under the deal, announced today (15 June), Showbox will initially co-produce short-form dramas based on ReelShort’s existing IPs, with plans to expand to original content developed by Showbox.

Content from the partnership will be distributed exclusively on ReelShort.

The first titles in the pipeline for Korean adaptations are “Tell Me Not to Love You”, “My Secret Lover Is His Brother” and “Queen Never Cry”.

Showbox entered the short-form drama space in December 2025, when it began production on “Bridal Shower: The Missing Bride” and “The Fallen Idol Is Possessed!”. 

The studio’s film credits include “The King’s Warden” (2026), “Exhuma” (2024), “A Taxi Driver” (2017), and “Assassination” (2015). On the series side, its credits include Netflix original “A Killer Paradox”.

ReelShort claims more than 70mmonthly active users across 100+ countries.
