On November 11, content production development company TAKEONE COMPANY shared that they will be co-producing the drama “Wind Up” with SM Entertainment with plans to showcase the project as a short-form drama in the first half of 2026.
“Wind Up” is a coming-of-age drama that tells the story of a high school baseball pitcher who can no longer throw a strike and a transfer student who becomes his self-appointed manager. The sports drama depicts the two students’ dazzling friendship. The series will be helmed by director Kim Sung Ho, known for Netflix’s “Move to Heaven” and KBS’s “Bad Prosecutor.”
