According to a report by DongA Ilbo, Island (literal title), one of the most anticipated dramas of 2021, is expected to be produced in two seasons. Although nothing has been confirmed yet, officials explain that the entire episode will be divided and aired in two seasons.
Based on the webtoon of the same name, Island is a fantasy exorcism drama that takes place on Jeju island, where monsters have been lying in wait to eliminate the human world for a long time. It is expected to be an affectionate yet peculiar fantasy exorcism story about a man who needs the woman to end his cursed immortality, a woman who doesn’t know the cruel and sad fate that awaits her, and a guilt-ridden exorcist.
Kim Nam Gil and Seo Ye Ji were reported to have been offered the lead roles. It is considered one of the masterpieces of OCN and aims to expand “OCN’s spiritual worldview.”
It will premiere in the second half of 2021.
