Runaway alters scripts in wake of actor accident
by javabeans
Runaway’s resident bitchy mastermind Yoon Son-ha (okay, she’s more of a bitchy middle-manager) was recently in a car accident. Initially all sides had asserted that her accident would not affect the drama at all, but the writer-PD duo have decided to write her out of the upcoming scripts because she is not yet able to resume filming.
Yoon’s character, Professor Hwang Mi-jin, doesn’t have a very action-intensive role — unlike, say, leads Rain or Lee Jung-jin, who are forever running, fighting, and flashing their muscles — but it sounds like her accident was pretty serious. Her injury required surgery that drove a metal pin through her leg, between the pelvis and thigh.
MINOR SPOILER: According to the chief producer of the drama, the Mi-jin character will get caught up in a different plotline that takes her out of this main storyline, and her character will leave. He stated that they’ve taken care to keep it within the flow of the story, and added that if her health improves, she will be able to return later on. END SPOILER
Personally, I think this is as good a time as any for her character to be written out. Mi-jin played a somewhat important role through last week’s episodes, but it seemed like she would have naturally faded back anyway as the drama heads into its second half with this week’s episodes.

How did the accident happen anyway? Was the car accident part of a stunt scene?

I was wondering how dramabeans feels about how Fugitive: Plan B is developing...in your last podcast, you and girlfriday didn't really have many positives about the drama. Since they're done with the jet-setting (which i agree was more than a bit contrived) for now, and are settling into the storyline for the drama...I like it a bit more...Do you?

Hope she'll heal completely and hope her injuries won't affect her career in the future!
LMAO at the "Rain or Lee Jung-jin, who are forever running, fighting, and flashing their muscles" part! Whenever the running scenes come I go 'not again?!!!' and try to bear with it.

Hope the best for her recovery. That she opts to be written out to insure she heals and recovers for her life.
I am enjoying Fugitive ....I looked to see what could be so bad and watched the first 4 Episodes back to back!
Rain is too funny...and so far pulling it off....
Traffic sounds like a bear! wasnt another actor killed riding his motorcyle earlier.....
