Studio Dragon, the production company behind Marry My Husband, confirmed the report in a statement.

"The original webtoon is popular in Japan, so we have been discussing turning the original into a Japanese drama even before the Korean version was broadcast, and we are currently discussing the direction of the plan with the Japanese side," it said.
