Focus is on diversifying Chinese-language content to offer more entertainment options.
Netflix aims to work closely with top and emerging creators and talents in Taiwan, and invest in must-watch and quality Chinese-language content, including genres that are less represented on screen, to tell stories that are impactful, relatable and authentic to audiences.
Accordingly, the streaming giant starts the year strong with the release of Let’s Talk About CHU, a lighthearted, thought-provoking and steamy comedy series that explores the intricacies of sex and love through the Chu family. Starring Kai Ko and Chan Tzu-hsuan, this bold series encourages open discussions about sexuality for healthier relationships.
Fans of detective series The Victims’ Game, the first Chinese-language production renewed by Netflix, will be excited to know that the second season will land this year. Join Fang Yi-jen (Joseph Chang) as he becomes the prime suspect in a new murder case, risking everything to prove his innocence and rebuild his relationship with his daughter. The original cast — Joseph Chang, Hsu Wei-ning, Jason Wang, Moon Lee — along with new additions like Japanese actor Dean Fujioka, Hong Kong star Terrance Lau, and Taiwanese singer Tarcy Su, promise another gripping season.
Following the success of box office hit Marry My Dead Body, which is also Taiwan’s country selection for the 2024 Academy Awards, we’ll be releasing a spin-off series, GG Precinct. Greg Hsu will reprise his role as a police detective in the sequel, which boasts more mind-boggling crimes and side-splitting moments this time.
Finally, don’t miss Born for the Spotlight, a riveting series starring Hsieh Ying-hsuan, Cheryl Yang and Hsueh Shih-ling. A refreshing take on the journey of a starlet and sisterhood, the series follows the unraveling of a friendship between two top actresses as they pursue their passion and navigate the cutthroat showbiz landscape in Taiwan. The series features a star-studded cast including Hsieh Ying-hsuan, Cheryl Yang, Hsueh Shih-ling, Annie Chen, Hsieh Chiung-hsuan, Yang Kuei-mei, Chung Hsin-ling, Tseng Wan-ting, Chloe Lin, Rd Huang and Zhan Huai-yun.
