“Doona!” is an adaptation of the popular webtoon “The Girl Downstairs.” Lee Jeong Ho, known for titles like Crash Landing on You, Romance is a Bonus Book, and Life on Mars. Studio Dragon, the production team behind Love Alarm, My Holo Love, and Sweet Home, among others, is in charge of producing Doona.
Netflix hasn’t announced a release date for the series. However, the release data anticipated initially was October 13th. Although the official word on this is awaited, the new anticipated date of release is October 20, 2023 – a week later than the earlier assumption.
