Hello everyone!
In order to keep you up to date on all the cool things happening at Tapas HQ, I’m sharing this wonderful news story with you.
Our team has finalized a deal with Frolic Media and MWM Universe to adapt Yes, My Boss as podcast and for TV!! Read the full article here.
From the article:
Frolic Media, an entertainment media company co-founded by former E! President Lisa Berger and former AwesomenessTV executive Sarah Penna, and MWM Universe, the company behind Netflix’s The Dragon Prince, are adapting Korean webtoon Yes, My Boss! for TV after striking a deal with digital comic book company Tapas Media.
The two companies have struck a deal for all cross-platform rights to the romantic comedy and will launch it as a podcast while also developing and packaging it for television.
If you haven’t read Yes, My Boss yet, here is the series synopsis:
Although Ilene Jung is a popular webtoon artist, she needs another job. A crappy desk job to be exact, one tyrannically controlled by the meanest manager in the world: Jim Kang. He insults her work, refuses to teach her, and even makes her miss an important appointment by forcing her work late on her very first day. To make things worse, when Jim applies to become an artist’s assistant, the artist turns out to be Ilene! In a begrudging twist of fate, she accepts him and the two enter a bizarre working relationship both at home and at the office. How long can it last? Why is Ilene working a desk job? And who’s the boss here anyways?!
I hope you’re all having a great week so far!
