Studio Dragon Corporation (Korean:스튜디오드래곤 주식회사) is a South Korean drama production, marketing and distribution company under CJ ENMEntertainment Division. It was established on May 3, 2016, as a spin-off from E&M's drama division. In 2018, Studio Dragon became a subsidiary of CJ ENM after their previous parent company, CJ E&M, was merged into CJ ENM.
Studio Dragon has partnered with Netflix to carry numerous TVN dramas like Crash Landing on You and It's Okay to Not Be Okay on the platform. Their partnership was expected to expire in 2022 as CJ ENM, founder of Studio Dragon, has decided to focus on TVING following the merger with KT Seezn, which also owned minority shares on KT StudioGenie, who founded the streaming platform Seezn[ko].
Logo
Studio Dragon's logo, which it calls the Drama Paragon, was inspired by Cintamani, a wish-fulfilling jewel within both Hindu and Buddhist traditions. It represents Asian culture, which the company wants to glorify through every production it makes. The logo, made by Korean brand design company Brandmajor, was first introduced in the 2016 drama Squad 38.
↑Founded in 2014 as Story Plant and acquired by Studio Dragon's parent company in 2015, then sold to Kakao M (formerly Loen Entertainment) in 2017. Studio Dragon is the third biggest stakeholder in the company with a 10.95% stake, behind kakao M's 67.20% and the latter's sister company KakaoPage's 21.85%. As of September 1, 2018, the company is still listed under its former name on the "related companies" section on Studio Dragon's website.
↑JS Pictures is currently a separate subsidiary of CJ ENM, but is listed as an affiliate of Studio Dragon on the latter's website.
