Viet Nam Satellite Digital Television K+ is tying up with two film production companies; BHD of Viet Nam and CJ of South Korea. The agreement makes K+ the first pay TV operator in the country to invest in the production of Vietnamese films.
For K+, the investment will bring fresh movies to its content slate in May and June, reports the Viet Nam News. The Pay TV operator has already picked Bo Ba Rac Roi (Triple Trouble) and Quyen for its line-up. Both films are expected to be a hit at the Box Office. De Mai Tinh 2 (Fool for Love) and Ngay Nay Ngay Nay (The Lost Dragon) are two other films that have done well in the country and will soon be available on TV for K+ subscribers.
Vietnam Digital Satellite Television (VSTV) had recently announced that it has won broadcast rights for the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) U23 Championship qualifier. The Pay TV operator added that it will be airing other football season programmes as well, reports Vietnam Net.
