According to Deadline, writer Paula Yoo (from Supergirl and The Perfectionists), producer Neil Meron, and choreographer Kyle Hanagami (he has a big online presence and worked with BTS) are working together on Olympic Boulevard, an “hourlong musical drama” about the world of K-pop—or at least the world of performing K-pop in the United States. The show is going to Peacock, NBCUniversal’s streaming platform, which is supposed to launch in April and may or may not be free with commercials (that will at least set it apart from HBO Max, Disney+, and… maybe a third new one we’re blanking on. Quibi? Is that anything? No, it can’t be.)
