Karoline Hoeppner, Bongo’s Head of Licensing & Distribution, explains, “Today’s Gen Z youth love to experience emotional contents & drama that grab their mind. We are always looking for contents that match their desires, tastes & dreams. Ordinary family drama shows do not attract them as much. As a result, our OTT platform decided to launch this beautiful Korean drama series, ‘Guardian: The Lonely and Great God’ in Bengali dubbed version for those young hearts. The story revolves around 5 youths struggling to resolve their own missions and pursue their desire. They escape their era in search of their destiny. And in this course their interest clashes with their love interest which ends in a tragic way. I am sure our Audience in Bangladesh will love it.”
