Cable TV network tvN’s drama “Another Oh Hae-young” has been successfully sold in 10 countries, according to CJ E&M in an interview with Sports Seoul, a Korean daily.

The news comes after the Monday-Tuesday drama surpassed the ratings of dramas of major broadcasters and set the highest rating for the cable network with 8.4 percent.

“The drama has already started to air in the U.S., Hong Kong, Singapore and Taiwan,” CJ E&M said. “We have finished signing the contracts with Japan, Malaysia, Cambodia, Israel and Europe and the drama will air in the near future.”

The drama is about an unlucky woman named Oh Hae-young (Seo Hyun-jin) who keeps running into mishaps due to her charming former colleague with the same name. She forms a romantic link with her neighbor Park Do-kyung (Eric Mun), while her life is in disarray due to a past broken engagement and her namesake showing up as her new boss.
