The series filmed in Malaga by Park Seo-Joon, with 25 million followers, premieres on Amazon Prime Video.
The 'k-drama' star shares the lead role in the romantic story 'Maybe Tomorrow' with one of the actresses from 'Squid Game'
Just three months ago, filming was still taking place on the streets of Málaga, and now it is already available on Prime Video. 'Tal vez ... mañana' ('Surely Tomorrow') has premiered, featuring one of the biggest stars of 'k-drama' - Korean cinema - Park Seo-Joon, leading the cast of a romantic story he shares with another popular Asian actress, Won Ji-An, who was one of the tormented in the blockbuster saga 'Squid Game'. A charming pair for a love story with shades of melodrama, through which the Amazon platform aims to position itself in the Far East market, but also to make inroads into the Spanish-speaking market by bringing the comings and goings of the Korean protagonists to Europe, and specifically, our city.

The filming of 'Tal vez mañana' in Málaga took place last September, when most of the production was already recorded and only the protagonists' trip to Andalusia was pending, where, judging by the scenes seen on the street, they are part of the most idyllic plot of this romantic 'k-drama'. The series portrays a story of second chances about a couple who, after experiencing their first love and breakup when they were young, meet again years later in a very different situation: he is an entertainment section journalist who publishes a case of drugs and infidelities affecting a popular businessman and husband of his former girlfriend, now an actress.
Although the actors Park Seo-Joon and Won Ji-An are not popular faces in Spain, the couple stirs passions in South Korea, where the JTBC network broadcasts each new episode weekly, achieving a 7% audience share. Elsewhere in the world, distribution is handled by Prime Video.
With 38 years just completed and the look of an eternal teenager, 'Tal vez mañana' has its great appeal in Park Seo-Joon, one of the most sought-after actors in Korean television and cinema, where he has starred in popular titles such as 'Fight for My Way' and 'What's Wrong With Secretary Kim?'. Additionally, the viral actor has already been tempted by Hollywood, where he participated in one of the superhero movie franchises, 'The Marvels' (sequel to 'Captain Marvel'), while Netflix signed him for the series 'The Monster of Old Seoul'.
Screen Tourism
'Tal vez mañana', directed by Lim Hyun-uk and Yu Young-ah, gives Park Seo-Joon and Won Ji-An the opportunity to embody characters that move from youth to maturity in a plot that includes nostalgia, intensity, and maximum chemistry between the two actors, as their relationship spans twelve episodes, with a slightly longer runtime than the standard in the West: 70 minutes per episode.
The filming in Málaga of this series drew great attention as the protagonists shot in numerous locations in the center of the capital over several days, such as Plaza de Uncibay, Plaza de Camas, around the Church of San Agustín, Molina Lario, and Alcazabilla Street, where Ji-An and Seo-Joon sat on the terrace of El Vegetariano to shoot dining scenes. Additionally, the movie trailer reveals how the series offers very picturesque panoramas of Malagueta and Farola from Mundo Nuevo with the protagonists enjoying an ice cream, as well as Císter and Beatas streets. These idyllic images, with these popular characters, promote the so-called screen tourism that could also extend to Marbella, where the 'Tal vez mañana' team also shot scenes in well-known spots, such as Parque de la Alameda.
Produced by the South Korean company SLL ('The Tale of Lady Ok' and 'The Art of Negotiation'), Studios In, the Andalusian Flow Studio, and the Mallorcan service company Campos Films, the series was supported by Málaga Film Office - the city council's filming service, the company specialized in location scouting A Film Location ('The Crown' and 'Warrior Nun'), and the agency Modexpor ('Game of Thrones'), which handled the casting of extras and episodic characters.
