I don't actually watch their drama because its way too long for my liking, but i hope they get better soon.

ALWAYS THOSE DAMN CAR ACCIDENTS. A manager shouldn't be a chauffeur: They have a lot of much important tasks to do. Can't the actors take taxis? Driving is their job, they are not overworked and normally not under chemical influence of any kind. If I were an insurance company for actors, I would ask for it in the contract.
And about that shoulder problem: Anyone remembers what happened to Kim Jae-won on M2F? He wanted to delay the medical care and ended with complications and cancellations of events.
Will they ever learn? Those news always send me climbing on the walls!

Currently watching it
Good cinematography and acting.

This is insane! The working conditions are insane and we keep hearing news of accidents. This is a 80 episodes long show. Wonder how they are going to keep going. Esp that actress' (Colin's mum in AGD) injuries sound serious. ICU?

Hope both will recover well....

I don't even know why I'm surprised, of course broadcast stations and production companies would value profit and money more than individual welfare. It's a shame that although the issue of actors' rights was brought to light with the whole Han Ye-seul/Spy Myung-wol debacle, nothing ended up getting changed. Doesn't South Korea have any equivalent to the SAG so actors could at least have *some* leverage?

I hope they get better before going back to work...wish them the best

And yes I agree with the comment that they should have a seperate driver..if the managr is in set witg u all day the odds aee he's tired and overworked also.

Didn't this happen to another drama before and in the end they cancelled the drama all together?

Do people not pay attention to their driving or what? Celebrities always seem to be in one accident or another. I say if you know you have to drive later at night, sleep ahead of time and then drive...like seriously...

I love Choi Su-jong, one of my favorite veteran sageuk actors. I'm gonna have to marathon this show during the holidays. This part of K-history has always been my favorite.

Get well soon Kim Chun chu <3.

This is insane. Someone tie that guy to a hospital bed stat.

The problem is their managers most of the times are the one that drive the cars.

And I don't know why they can't have a driver. WTH, they prefer to be in danger or die ??

The managers wokes up before the actor and goes to pick them up, they are always doing something too, and solving the actors problem, the manager never stop, while the actor for example can take naps while doing hair, make-up or resting before their next filming on the set... but the managers? They never take a nap, if the actors are overworked, imagine how worse things are for their managers that have yet to drive after a long day without any rest/nap ......

it is crazy. I read actors doing live shooting say they sleep barely 2 hours straight and most of the time this is when they are in their cars going to another place to film or do interview...

I really wonder, when will this stop? When someone really dies?

When will these actors company hire drivers/chauffeur ??
It is no joke I see almost every week one car accident that has one idol/star/actor in it...

I'm sad to hear about that. I feel they really need to start hiring drivers or sumthin... i hope they don't wait until its too late. or until someone looses their life before they realize how imperative it is to have a professional driver.

I hope they both get better. I think I will move to Korea and start a celebrity driving business.

It's still crazy to me that filming occurs so close to when these the episodes air.

People don't seem to understand that the film sets where these types of shows are filmed are located outside of Seoul and taking a taxi to the film set is simply unrealistic. Besides, Korean taxis are notorious for being rather reckless. Additionally, many of these actors/actresses have other obligations they must attend to in Seoul such as promoting their latest TV shows, etc. Not easy as it might seem. It's the problem of the whole production cycle/system in the Korean TV industry that leaves very little room for anything that needs to change for improving the working conditions and the overall post-production.

Oh Korea. You and your endless car accidents/

Can someone please explain the Live-shoot system to me. i'm not korean and can't seem to understand why they put up a system in place that is potentially harmful to their actors/crew.

See? Another car accident, where the manager was driving...

If the managers are so exhausted then they should hire drivers for the actors! If you are so worried about losing money with injuries it makes more sense to play it safe and just pay for company drivers. NGOs and businesses have them so why shouldn't talent agencies. I'm pretty sure Hollywood stars have drivers.
