“Yumi’s Cells” Season 3 to Premiere in 18 Countries on April 13—Including Japan and Southeast Asia

Returning is “Cell Stimulating Empathy Romance,” delivering a fresh jolt with a first-of-its-kind blend of live action and 3D animation. TVING announced that it will kick off a global hit run by releasing the original series 〈Yumi’s Cells Season 3〉 simultaneously in 18 Asia-Pacific countries—including South Korea—on April 13.

A New Romance for Yumi, a Third-Year Star Writer… Expect the Chemistry of Kim Go-eun and Kim Jae-won

This 〈Yumi’s Cells Season 3〉 tells the story of Yumi (played by Kim Go-eun), who debuted as a writer and has become a third-year star writer. With a suddenly arriving new character out of the blue in an otherwise calm, day-to-day life that’s close to unexciting, Yumi’s romance cells and daily-life cells will spring into action once again—captured with the show’s signature sensibility.

Actor Kim Go-eun, praised as “Yumi herself,” will once again lead the drama. Joining her is Kim Jae-won, a rising talent who’s drawing attention as one to watch, promising fresh chemistry. With the solid narrative foundation of the original webtoon and the vivid action of the cells added on, anticipation from fans at home and abroad is building to a peak.

Global Distribution Through HBO Max and Disney+… A Leap Forward as a K-Content Hub

TVING will present Season 3 via HBO Max in 17 Asia-Pacific countries and regions, and via TVING’s brand channel on Disney+ Japan. This has drawn industry attention for its global distribution approach, in which a homegrown OTT platform directly curates and showcases its own original IP for overseas audiences.

As 〈Dear X〉 previously topped the charts in 108 countries on a global platform and sparked a wave of buzz, TVING’s strategy is to further accelerate the spread of K-content worldwide, powered by its strong IP, 〈Yumi’s Cells〉.

Special Channel for “Yumi’s Cells” Opens Starting Today (the 23rd)… Binge Through All Previous Seasons

Ahead of the Season 3 release, a special event has also been prepared for domestic viewers. Starting today (the 23rd), TVING opens the 〈Yumi’s Cells〉 special channel and unveils an IP home bringing together a wealth of content—from VODs of Seasons 1 and 2 to shorts and clips featuring appearances by the cast.

In addition, all episodes from the previous seasons will be scheduled in sequence on tvN and the tvN DRAMA channel, and special broadcasts are also set to be released—giving viewers a chance to preview and revisit the series returning after three years.

With expectations from global fans, 〈Yumi’s Cells Season 3〉 will be exclusively pre-released twice a week on TVING starting April 13—every Monday at 6:00 PM—while tvN will air it every Monday and Tuesday at 8:50 PM.
