2026 Korea on Screen | Behind the Scenes of Bass X Machina

The Korean Cultural Center New York presents a free screening of the first episode of Netflix’s new series Bass X Machina as part of its monthly screening series, Korea on Screen. The screening will be followed by a conversation between series creator LeSean Thomas and Kwang Il Han of Studio Mir, the animation studio behind the series.
The two will discuss the creation of Bass X Machina, its real-world Old West inspiration, and the cross-cultural production process between an American series creator and Korea’s acclaimed Studio Mir. The conversation will explore how the project moved from concept and development into animation production, how creative responsibilities were shared across countries, and how Studio Mir’s artists and production team helped translate the series into its finished animated form.
