Supernatural reality competition Battle of Fates<\/span><\/span> has become the most-watched series premiere of all time on Disney+<\/span><\/span><\/a> in Korea, surpassing the record previously set by the 2023 hit series Moving<\/span><\/span>.<\/p>\n

According to Disney+<\/a>, the show also ranks as the number one series premiere of 2026 in the Asia-Pacific region, based on views recorded during its first 12 days on the platform. Following the show\u2019s strong debut, the streaming service confirmed that local adaptations for other markets are now in development.<\/p>\n

A supernatural competition built on divination<\/h4>\n

First released on February 11, Battle of Fates introduces a unique reality competition centered on practitioners of different divination traditions. The series brings together experts in shamanism, tarot reading, saju, face reading, and foot reading, among other practices, as they compete to demonstrate their predictive abilities.<\/p>\n

Throughout the season, contestants face a series of challenges designed to test their intuition and interpretive skills. Using a mix of traditional tools and modern technology\u2014ranging from spirit communication rituals and dowsing rods to laptops and analytical deduction\u2014the participants attempt to deliver the most accurate readings to avoid elimination.<\/p>\n

The competition begins with 49 participants, each representing different approaches to fortune reading. The series gradually narrows the field through multiple rounds until only one contestant remains.<\/p>\n
