A major broadcasting company in Japan is currently in the process of finalizing a deal for the distribution rights to KBS' TV series "Man From the Equator."

"The two companies have gone through the final stages of negotiations and will soon sign the contract so that 'Man From the Equator' can air in Japan," an official with the show's promoter Pan Entertainment told 10Asia over the phone on Friday.

When asked if other countries have inquired about the rights for the show, the rep explained that several countries have shown interest in the series though nothing has been set in stone.

Currently the No. 1 show on the Wednesday and Thursday primetime lineup, the Uhm Tae-woong, Lee Jun-hyuk and Lee Bo-young starrer has recorded ratings in the 14 to 15 percentile range, beating out SBS' "Rooftop Prince" and MBC's "The King 2Hearts."

Written by famed scenarist Kim In-young, "Man" tells the story of one man's desire to rise to the top and how he betrays his childhood friend in the process.
