Its other streaming platforms include Hulu and Disney+ Hotstar. The company did not say which services would carry the programme and in which markets.

In addition, the deal includes a reality show called <i>In the Soop: Friendcation</i> and featuring V from BTS, <i>Itaewon Class</i> TV star Park Seo-joon, <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/arts-culture/comment/parasite-has-put-a-spotlight-on-foreign-films-but-will-we-start-to-watch-more-of-them-1.981584" target="_blank"><i>Parasite </i></a>actor Choi Woo-sik, singer and actor Park Hyung-sik and rapper Peakboy. The show would follow the five friends "venturing on a surprise trip" and "enjoying a variety of leisure and fun activities," Disney said. The company will also introduce new programming from other HYBE artists over the next few years.
