Emerald Hill has also received the honour of being Taiwan public broadcaster Chinese Television System’s (CTS) first foreign acquisition in four years. The series also marked CTS’ first-ever acquisition of a Singapore drama for a primetime belt.
On Aug 4, Emerald Hill made its free-to-air debut on CTS and will air on the channel on weeknights from 8pm to 9pm.
In a statement, Virginia Lim, Mediacorp’s chief content officer, said: “Emerald Hill’s primetime debut on CTS is another strong endorsement of our content – one we’re thrilled to see echoed in the positive reviews and audience reactions since its premiere.
“For a public broadcaster to select our drama as their first foreign drama acquisition in four years speaks volumes about its production quality and the universal resonance of authentic local stories. We hope this vivid window into the Peranakan world finds a special place in the hearts and homes of Taiwanese audiences and we remain deeply committed to exporting the best of Mediacorp to the world.”
