A new Singapore-South Korea romantic comedy starring Kim Myung-soo and Pyo Ye-jin is in the works. Titled Collateral Romance, the drama is one of several Singapore-Korea projects currently being developed by Mediacorp.
Singapore's national media network announced the series on Tuesday (Sep 15), along with a separate partnership with Korean companies Studio S and Soonshot to develop four short-form dramas featuring Singaporean and Korean talent.
Collateral Romance is a 12-episode series co-produced by Mediacorp and South Korean content investment company Blintn, with Bigwave Entertainment serving as the production house. Filmed across Singapore and South Korea, the project marks Mediacorp's second Korean drama co-production and is slated to premiere in the first half of 2027.
The series is directed by Kang Min-goo, whose credits include Itaewon Class, and written by Hit The Spot writer Lee Do-yeon. Anna producer Woo Saejin serves as chief producer alongside Singapore executive producer Leong Lye Lin, whose credits include SHERO.
South Korean actors Kim Myung-soo, also known as L of K-pop group Infinite, and Pyo Ye-jin, will lead the cast, while Singapore actress Gladys Bay will also appear in the series.
Collateral Romance follows Lee Jeong-sik (Kim), a free-spirited timber dealer with a passion for trees, and Na Da-woon (Pyo), a pragmatic merchandising director who dreams of an ordinary, stable life. Despite their contrasting personalities, the pair cross paths in an unfamiliar city and become caught up in an unexpected incident that intertwines their lives.
Bay plays Chu Jini, the daughter of a Singaporean mother and Korean father who travels to South Korea to compete in a dance audition programme.
Broadcast details for Collateral Romance will be announced at a later date.
Mediacorp's other newly announced Korean partnership is with Studio S, the drama production and distribution arm of South Korean broadcaster SBS, and Soonshot, a short-form K-drama platform co-founded by veteran Korean comedian Lee Kyung Kyu.
The three companies will develop four short-form productions, or microdramas, featuring actors from Singapore and South Korea, as Mediacorp expands its Korean collaborations beyond conventional long-form television productions.
The first will be a short-form adaptation of the 2018 South Korean romantic comedy Still 17, a drama about a woman who wakes from a 13-year coma at the age of 30 while still feeling like the 17-year-old she was before the accident.
The new adaptation is targeted for release by the end of 2026. The remaining three titles will be announced progressively, with casting for all four productions currently underway.
The shows will be available through Mediacorp's platforms and Soonshot, with plans for international distribution.

新加坡国家媒体网络于周二（9 月 15 日）宣布了该系列剧，同时还与韩国公司 Studio S 和 Soonshot 达成了一项单独的合作协议，开发四部由新加坡和韩国人才主演的短剧。
《附属罗曼史》（Collateral Romance）是一部12集的电视剧，由新传媒（Mediacorp）和韩国内容投资公司Blintn联合制作，Bigwave Entertainment担任制片公司。该剧在新加坡和韩国取景拍摄，是新传媒第二次与韩国合作制作电视剧，预计将于2027年上半年播出。
该剧由曾执导《梨泰院Class》的姜敏久执导，编剧是《一击即中》的编剧李度妍。《安娜》的制片人禹世珍担任总制片人，新加坡执行制片人梁丽琳（代表作有《女英雄》）也参与了制作。
韩国演员金明洙（K-pop组合Infinite成员L）和表艺珍将领衔主演，新加坡女演员格拉迪斯·贝也将出演该剧。
《附带爱情》讲述了热爱树木、自由奔放的木材商李正植（金秀贤饰）和渴望平凡稳定生活的务实商品总监罗多云（表杓饰）的故事。尽管性格迥异，两人却在陌生的城市相遇，并卷入一场意想不到的事件，从此他们的命运交织在一起。
