‘I’m not a hero’ but controversy over abuse of power… Hospital side “Patients come first, there was no big fuss” [Official statement]

(Xports News Reporter Lee Ye-jin) The JTBC drama ‘I’m Not a Hero’ starring Jang Ki-yong and Chun Woo-hee was embroiled in controversy over abuse of power on set.

On the 10th, a long article was posted on the Internet community Bobae Dream with the title, ‘The drama filming team is acting too humanely.’ The author revealed that he was abused on set, and this led to controversy.

As a result of Xports News coverage on the 11th, it was revealed that the work in question is ‘I’m Not a Hero’, scheduled to air in 2023.

An official from the hospital where the filming took place on this day told Xports News, “After checking with the security team, it is said that no one shouted as in the article. (The person presumed to be the author) also said that he waited for a while and then went up. There was nothing like that when responding, but it was like this. He said, “He said he was surprised that the post was posted.”

At the same time, “When filming, there are no cases where the entire filming is blocked for the entire filming time, and the patient is the top priority. Patients and guardians are allowed to enter and exit, and they are told that they can enter quietly even if filming is taking place. They have never blocked anything and only take a short time while filming or checking entry and exit. “There are cases where it happens,” he explained.

In the post, the author revealed that he was abused on set and explained the situation by saying, “My wife was 33 weeks pregnant with her second child and had a premature labor/miscarriage, so I was hospitalized in the high-risk maternity room and then discharged. Yesterday, I had bleeding, so I went to the emergency room and then went up to the high-risk maternity room in the main building.”.

He continued, “I was going to close the store and run into the main building, but the assistant director blocked me because I was filming a drama, so I couldn’t go.”He continued, “There are two roads, and one is covered with monitors and staff, and one is blocked so you can’t pass through. That’s also the hospital.”He said angrily.

He continued, “I’m so anxious that I’m going to die, and the staff member blocked my path with an expression on his face and told me to be quiet and not run. I said, ‘Is that my business?’ Then his expression became distorted and he seemed to be trying to say something, and I said, ‘This is a place that saves people, but you guys’ filming is the problem.’ “He shouted ‘Nya’ once.”

The author added, “Luckily, my wife got through without any problems, but I felt like if there was a problem, I would really go down and throw it all away.”

Meanwhile, ‘I’m Not a Hero’ is a fantasy romance in which a man with extraordinary abilities but no one could save her finally saves a fateful woman, starring Jang Ki-yong and Chun Woo-hee.
