KBS‘s highly-anticipated drama, ‘Love Rain‘, is experiencing some turbulence due to Jang Geun Suk‘s busy overseas schedules.
According to an insider related to the issue, shooting for the drama came to an ‘all-stop’ for two weeks because of the male lead’s Japanese activities. “Director Yoon Suk Ho recently brought all the managers together to go over schedules.” he said. “Because Jang Geun Suk paid attention only to his foreign schedules, the director had to step up to the plate. It’s a rare case for the director to personally meet with the managers.”
Jang Geun Suk recently kicked off his Japanese Arena Tour, and also has his first Chinese album to promote as well. In short, his schedule is packed.
“The shooting schedule is considerably backed up,” the insider revealed. “We were supposed to have completed five episodes by now, but only got through one. Jang Geun Suk keeps leaving in the middle of this situation, so the directors and the other cast members are having a hard time.”
Jang Geun Suk also raised eyebrows by bringing his own filming crew on-set, purportedly to film footage for a making-of video. “It’s not enough to harm the production, but since it’s Director Yoon’s first time dealing with it, he doesn’t know what to think of it.”

The production company for the TV series Love Rain recently dispelled rumors that there is internal conflict between them and actor Jang Keun Suk.
On the 27th, the company said, “Even though Jang is busy with his foreign schedules it didn’t affect the shooting schedule for the series. We discussed his schedule prior to casting him in the series.”
“Jang decided to go on a Japanese tour before he was cast in the series so we had prior consultation for both schedules. Director Yoon Suk Ho is currently editing previously shot scenes. We are not suffering from any internal conflicts between us and Jang.”
Because of Jang’s foreign schedules, the crew members are taking a two week break. They will start shooting again on November 1.
Some said Jang’s foreign schedule caused tension between the production crew and him. But that is not true.
The series may air through KBS but the production company said they haven’t decided at this time.
