MBC delays the airing of Hero

Hero

Hero might have finally got it's production back on track with Yoon So Yi joining as the leading lady in place of the injured Kim Min Jung, but a delay in broadcast was always inevitable because of the last minute change.

Due to a shoulder injury that was taking far too long to heal, Kim Min Jung dropped out of the production, a week before the drama's premiere on 11th November. That left the Hero production team scrambling as time was scarce although they managed to sign up Yoon So Yi as a replacement.

But the last minute change meant that everything had to be re-shot right from the start, including promotional materials. We might also miss seeing the cameo of girl group, Kara since it had involved Kim Min Jung. Hopefully, they will do some magic editing.

MBC thus announced on the 5th that the drama's broadcast will be pushed back a week later, and will now air on 18th November instead. This measure was taken to ensure that the production team has some breathing space to work with.

But is MBC now regretting on it's decision to order a reduction of episodes for Heading to the Ground which ended yesterday?

even though i’m tired of waiting, it’s better that the drama schedule is delayed. Yoon So Yi is an experienced actress but she shouldn’t be pushed. i feel really bad for my Junki )= but still have faith in it. “LET’S GO AGAIN! IT’S RIGHT HERE!” (cr: Junki) <33 HERO HWAITING!!!

Do you think KMJ really injured? no… she’s not !!!!!!!  it’s her excuse to leave the drama. searching for more info in korean fansite and you’ll know she’s not deserved the sympathy from anyone. it’s true she was injured from her previous drama but if she really ill, do you think she will join the police role at the first place?.. the real reason why she left HERO becuase KMJ and her management worry about her amount of scenes in drama and the competition with Iris. All they can see is LOW rating. so she escape… it’s not that i came here to discredit her but i really can’t stand the situation… All crews and cast now busy shooting because of this irresponsible actress. she should leave earlier that it won’t effect the drama like this.

@21 why do you hate her that much? i think you should read all the news clearly. KMJ’s shoulder was really hurt from her previous movie, but it has partially recovered. It just relapsed when she went to a martial arts class for this drama. She does want to cast in the drama, even after Junki showed her the script a long time ago. She decided to leave the crew because she has a mind & body collapse. KMJ and her mangement worry about THE COMPETITION WITH IRIS? are you kidding me? do you think actors just live on ratings? what about their passion? &you; say she’s an irresponsible actress? Keep all the words inside your mouth. Everyone needs respect. not to mention Junki is there. I have to say, again and again, because Junki always has faith in this drama, i believe everyone in the crew has faith in it too. & of course I do.

KMJ has missed filming on a few separate occasions without even giving an excuse or reason, and that shoulder injury is not something that happened quite abruptly. It came back when filming was JUST STARTING, and it became worse quite QUICKLY. For her to pull out of the WHOLE drama just days before its first day is completely irresponsible. Don’t get me wrong, I have loved her in every single drama, and I am not an anti at all. However, what she did this time deserves some sort of punishment. Not only has she affected the crew, the actors, and the fans, but by pulling out so late, she will give the new actress (Yoon So I, in this case) that ‘last-minute-damage-control’ image, which is crucial for any actors, let alone an actress. And KMJ continues to release press about her dropping out, and how she feels ‘bad,’ which is just worsening the situation for everyone. Apparently, the production team may sue her, and if they do, they’re not doing anything wrong in my opinion.
