A few of the current dramas and upcoming dramas were postponed due to the increase in Covid-19 patients in Korea. But, KOCOWA users still have plenty of shows to choose from! Check-out the classic drama, “The time We Were Not In Love,” and the reality shows, “Little Forest” and “Village Survival the Eight 1&2.” And don’t worry not all productions have gone on hiatus. New shows still airing “Do You Like Brahms?,” “Alice,” and “Running Man.” KOCOWA has always got you covered!
The cast and crew members in the film industry were not spared, unfortunately. Celebrities such as Kim Won-Hae and Heo Dong-Won tested positive for it. To help prevent the spread of COVID-19, television stations ordered a suspension in the production. Variety shows such as the popular “Running Man” and “Master in the House” have put filming on a pause temporarily. This is done for the “health and safety of the cast and crew.”
One of the several dramas that were halted is “To All the Guys Who Loved Me,” starring Hwang Jung-Eum, Yoon Hyun-Min and Seo Ji-Hoon. One of the cast Seo Song-Jong showed symptoms and was tested for the virus. Due to that, all cast and crew involved in this drama were tested and put on quarantine for 2 weeks.
It’s a huge relief to know that the safety of the cast and crew are put on priority. We think that it is the best possible decision that could be made for the sake of everyone in the production team. This also means, however, that we might not be seeing some of the new episodes or dramas coming any time soon.
On the bright side, perhaps it’s time to go back in time and show our favorite Korean variety shows and dramas some appreciation.
