3 Actors + 1 Comedian down with swine flu

The swine flu is back and attacking our Korean entertainers, again!

Our High Kick Through the Roof star, Hwang Jung Eum, was taken straight to the hospital during the filming of an episode due to her swine flu diagnosis. Following suit, her two co-stars Daniel Choi and Yoon Si Yoon went to the hospital as well to get tested for the virus.

Highkick’s PD, Kim Byung Wook, stated, “We were not able to finish filming all of Hwang Jung Eum’s take today (26th). As of right now, we are waiting for a phone call from Hwang Jung Eum’s side. We are going to have to figure out a new schedule together to make things work.

It has been reported that Hwang Jung Eum insisted that she go out to finish filming the episode, but everyone around her has been stopping her for the sake of her health. However, if she is not able to finish the filming, February’s first episode may get delayed.

Aside from our actors, comedian Yoo Sae Yoon has also been diagnosed with swine flu.

Yoo Sae Yoon had been feeling cold-like symptoms starting from the 21st and got checked up and has been diagnosed positive on the 26th.

He has been getting a lot of rest since his diagnosis and has been getting a lot of treatment, and it has been reported that he is showing fast progress. However, although his health may be improving, he will still have to miss out on all the filming for his shows.

A representative stated, “There is an episode filming set for the 27th, but it seems like we are going to have to get another guest, but we are going to have to discuss more about it. As of now, nothing has been decided.”

Just when everything seemed calm in 2010, the swine flu comes back into the scene! Hopefully, the virus will stop at this point, instead of going through another crazy chain reaction.
