The catalogue also brings hit psychological drama The Red Room, one of the most talked about romantic series of the past year in Turkey, My Home My Destiny, and latest hit daily drama from Karamel Yapim, Legacy, which was just renewed for a second season.

Fredrik af Malmborg, Managing Director, said: ‘We continue to expand at a great rate. We currently represent more than 20 hours of series in production each week in Turkey, our offering of premium Nordic drama keeps growing, while our partnership with CJ ENM continues to enhance our catalogue of readymade dramas, where we have added a number of top K-Dramas to our lineup this year’.

Chrysalis shows a young and innocent woman who has grown up in the shadow of her overbearing mother. Honour, sold to +60 territories worldwide with several local adaptations also in development, returns to Viaplay this month. On My Home My Destiny, a woman life will never be the same after meeting a man from the community she was born into.
