Disney Plus Korea Announces Webtoon Adaptations: "The Remarried Empress" and "Delusion" Coming in 2026

Disney Plus Korea has revealed exciting news for fans of webtoons and K-dramas alike. The streaming service has announced that two highly anticipated live-action series, based on popular webtoons, will be released in the second half of 2026. These series are "The Remarried Empress" and "Delusion," promising a blend of historical drama, romance, and captivating storytelling.

"The Remarried Empress": A Tale of Power, Divorce, and New Beginnings

"The Remarried Empress" follows the story of Navier, the seemingly perfect Empress of the Eastern Empire. Her life takes an unexpected turn when she discovers that her husband, Emperor Sovieshu, intends to replace her with his mistress. Instead of accepting her fate, Navier makes a bold decision: she chooses divorce. However, she is not content with simply relinquishing her title and power. Navier resolves to become an Empress once more, this time in another land.

The webtoon, already popular among international readers, offers a compelling narrative filled with political intrigue, strong female characters, and a touch of romance. The live-action adaptation is expected to bring the vibrant world of the Eastern Empire and Navier's journey to life. Fans eagerly await to see how the series will portray the complex relationships and power dynamics that define the original webtoon.

"Delusion": A Vampire Romance Set in Colonial Korea

"Delusion," created by Hongjacga, is a webtoon set during the early 20th century under Japanese colonial rule in Korea. The story explores the unlikely connection between a mysterious vampire woman and an unknown painter. The historical setting provides a unique backdrop for a supernatural romance, adding layers of complexity to the characters and their relationship.

The series delves into themes of identity, power, and the challenges of love in a turbulent time. The haunting visuals and captivating storyline of the webtoon have garnered a dedicated following, making the live-action adaptation one of the most anticipated projects on Disney Plus Korea's upcoming slate. The adaptation promises to deliver a visually stunning and emotionally resonant portrayal of the characters and their world.

Webtoon and Print Availability

This allows viewers to familiarize themselves with the stories and characters before the live-action series are released. For fans who prefer physical copies, Ize Press is releasing "The Remarried Empress" in print, while Inklore will release the first volume of "Delusion" in summer 2026.
