What must a Korean broadcaster's miniseries 기획안 contain and how long is it, and what mistakes do university and academy classes report in the synopsis-to-script chain?
The 2026 MBC drama script contest page requires, for a miniseries of 8 to 16 episodes of 70 minutes, a 기획안 of about 15 A4 pages that must contain a logline, planning intent, character introductions and the full story through to the ending, plus scripts of episodes 1-2 of about 35 pages each (3-4 added at the finals). Size is enforced by exclusion. A 2025 news report shows the single-episode category of the same call had a 10-page proposal. A 2017 abstract of a Seoul university class reports synopsis errors (ignoring broadcast slot length, confused theme) and scene-table errors; MBC Academy lists the same three proposal parts as course items.
