Naver Webtoon has unveiled a list of six webtoons and web-based novels, which will be adapted for silver or small screens by the end of this year, as part of the internet giant's latest effort to expand the exploitable scope of its intellectual property (IP).
네이버웹툰은 이용가능한 지적재산(IP) 범위 확장을 위한 최근 노력의 일환으로 올 하반기 영화화 및 드라마화될 웹툰과 웹소설 6편을 공개했다.


The first in line is "The Law Cafe," a popular web novel that has accumulated over 25 million downloads in Korea alone. Starring Lee Seung-gi and Lee Se-young, KBS' legal romance series of the same name premiered on Sept. 5, with its latest episode garnering a 5.5-percent viewership, according to Nielsen Korea.
첫 타자는 한국에서만 누적 다운로드 수 2천500만회를 기록한 웹소설 ‘법대로 사랑하라'다. 이승기와 이세영이 주연을 맡은 같은 제목의 KBS 법정 로맨스 드라마는 9월 5일부터 방영을 시작했으며 닐슨 코리아에 따르면 가장 최근 화는 5.5%의 시청률을 얻었다.


The series revolves around a gifted prosecutor-turned-landlord and a passionate lawyer tenant, who join hands to provide clients with legal services through the café-cum-law firm they run together.
이 드라마는 함께 운영하는 카페 겸 로펌을 통해 고객에게 법적 서비스를 제공하며 협력하는 천부적인 재능의 전직 검사 건물주와 열정적인 변호사 세입자를 중심으로 흘러간다.


The 4DX cinematic adaptation for sci-fi black comedy webtoon "Moon You" is scheduled to hit local theaters on Oct. 12. The webcomics centers on a zoologist who, after an asteroid destroys the Earth, is stranded in a research facility on the moon. As the "last man alive," he decides to launch an exploration of the lunar surface, only to discover on the way that he may not be alone as he initially presumed.
SF(공상과학) 블랙 코미디 웹툰 ‘문유' 4DX 영화는 내달 12일 국내 극장에 개봉한다. 웹툰 주인공은 소행성 충돌로 지구가 멸망한 후 달에 홀로 남은 동물학자다. "살아남은 자"로서 그는 달 표면 탐사 개시를 결심하지만 그 과정에서 첫 예상과 달리 자신은 혼자가 아니라는 사실을 깨닫는다.


At the end of July, the Chinese film adaptation of "Moon You" — titled "Moon Man" — was released, grossing over 580 billion won ($417 million) as of the beginning of September, according to China's largest online movie ticketing service Maoyan.
중국 최대 규모 온라인 영화 티켓팅 서비스 마오얀에 의하면 7월 말 중국에서 개봉한 ‘문유' 중국 버전 영화 ‘독행월구(獨行月球)'는 9월 초 기준으로 5천8백억 원(4억1700만 달러)의 수입을 모았다.


The film, which has become the second-highest-grossing movie of 2022 in the country's box office so far, marked the first case of a Chinese motion picture based on a Korean webtoon series.
2022년 중국 박스오피스에서 흥행 2위가 된 이 작품은 한국 웹툰에 기반한 첫 중국 영화 사례를기록했다.


The psychological fantasy drama "The Golden Spoon," starring actor-singer Yook Sung-jae of K-pop boy band BTOB and Jung Chae-yeon, will premiere on MBC, Sept. 23. The original webcomics, which has also been translated into English and Mandarin, launches a satirical commentary on Korean society's materialistic fixation through the story of a child who grew up in poverty but is given a chance one day to "change his family" with a magic golden spoon.
비투비 육성재와 정채연이 주연을 맡은 심리 판타지 드라마 '금수저'는 오는 9월 23일 MBC에서 첫 방송된다. 영어와 중국어로도 번역된 이 웹툰은 가난하게 자랐지만 언젠가 마법의 금수저로 인해 "다른 가족을 선택할" 기회가 주어진 한 아이의 이야기를 통해 한국 사회의 물질적 집착에 대한 풍자적인 논평을 제시한다.
