The iconic American coming-of-age novel "Little Women" by Louisa May Alcott is getting a Korean adaptation, joining the growing list of K-Dramas adapted from American/European works. With the source material being set in the 1800s, replete with the nuances of American gentry, the K-Drama adaptation is expected to make significant modifications to fit the storyline to modern-day South Korea while retaining the essence and meaning behind the original.

"Little Women", the novel, tells the story of four sisters who grow up in poverty but are rich at heart. Through trials and tribulations of their own, the sisters transform from little girls to complete women, ready to face the world on their own terms. The K-Drama "Little Women" will portray the story of three siblings in similar conditions who bravely face the power politics of the most influential family in the nation. It is set to premiere in the second half of 2022 on Netflix.
