Lee Seung Gi Suffers Severe Eye Injury; You Are All Surrounded′ Cancels Broadcast

[imienazwisko.livejournal.com]

Filming came to a stop for You Are All Surrounded after Lee Seung Gi received a severe eye injury.

The staff decided that it was hard to broadcast an episode without Lee Seung Gi and ultimately chose to cancel the broadcast for one episode of You Are All Surrounded.

You Are All Surrounded is a drama about a rookie detective, who tries to find out the truth about his mother′s murder. Lee Seung Gi, who plays the rookie detective Eun Dae Gu, suffered from an unexpected injury and was told by doctors not to return to set.

Lee Seung Gi was filming an action scene in the early mornings of June 9, when a prop sword hit his eye. He was diagnosed with corneal damage and intraocular hemorrhage.

After the accident, Lee Seung Gi showed much pain and was quickly transferred to the hospital. Lee Seung Gi wanted to return to filming after receiving treatement, but with the doctor′s recommnedation for a thorough medical examination, he was unable to go back on set. He was then diagnosed with corneal damage and intraocular hemorrhage and told to have absolute rest.

With a completely packed schedule, Lee Seung Gi showed that he wanted to go back to fimling, but the worried staff held him back and Lee Seung Gi currently following doctor′s orders.

Since Lee Seung Gi is the main character and is in need to keep the story going, the staff decided it would be impossible to continue filming and has momentarily stopped filming. June 11′s broadcast will instead air a special episode, while episode 10 will be pushed back to June 12.

Lee Seung Gi is currently receiving treatment and rest. He is trying his best to recover as quickly as possible in order to continue keep the series running smoothly.

"It′s very unfortunate that the filming had to stop due to an unforeseen accident," said Lee Seung Gi. "I′ll do my best to have You Are All Surrounded continue. I want to apologize to all the viewers of You Are All Surrounded."

Poor baby. Injuries involving eyes really unnerve me.

prop sword

Why is anyone using a sword in a contemporary drama?

I really like this drama. It's one of the only currently airing dramas that I'm fully keeping up with. Like I'm watching episodes on the day of release while I'm either letting episodes pile up so I can marathon or just don't feel like watching often in regards to other dramas.

I'm pretty sure it's a fake knife and that's just mistranslation... unless they decided to add a swordfight scene which would be hilarious.

[boiinks2.livejournal.com]

This drama has an interesting comedic side so I wouldn't put it past them. XD

[princetabi.livejournal.com]

noooooo this sucks :( i look forward to this drama every week. but i hope he recovers soon. I can tell you from experience that eye injuries/pain is actually terrible. You can't do anything productive.

[hipployta.livejournal.com]

Sit your ass down and rest...this live shooting system they have is ridiculous

[shupagirl-uk.livejournal.com]

OMG I hope he gets better soon.

[miwa201.livejournal.com]

i really wish korea would adopt a pre-recorded shooting system like in the west. anyway i hope he recovers fast

[asnindie.livejournal.com]

They will never because the broadcasters are too busy moulding it off how netizens react. I can't see how any self respecting writer would bother with Korean tv.

[aurora2687.livejournal.com]

I think the cable channel TvN does that and a majority of their drama's have been successful, with slumping ratings I wonder why the the public broadcaster's haven't atleast tried.

[imienazwisko.livejournal.com]

tvn can afford it plus they tend to have breaks between productions, like one drama ends and often the next series in that time slot premieres like two weeks later
still emergency couple filming was hell, no one really got much sleep and like one or two times there was just one episode per week as the producion team was behind with filming

[elementree.livejournal.com]

i think even Japan has pre-recorded system... or at least they start shooting like a month in advance.

Aaaaagh just hearing eye injury makes me >_o

I hope there's no permanent damage, and I hope he gets his proper rest. That injury sounds really serious.

[ashiva.livejournal.com]

I hope he won't go back to filming too soon.

[swhyeon1991.livejournal.com]

Omg that sounds scary.. I hope he gets well soon :c

[aridnili.livejournal.com]

omg ;-; That sounds awful. I hope he recovers well!

[xonatejennyxoxo.livejournal.com]

That really doesn't sound nice. I really hope he doesn't feel too burdened and that he doesn't start filming again until he's healed. I love the drama but I'd rather he was well than get the episodes on time.

[khuntflap.livejournal.com]

I legit rage when actors, idols, anyone in general has to apologize for being fucking sick or injured. Jfc, it's not like he went OH OH LET ME STAB MYSELF AND GO ON A VACAY LULZ. Pet peeve. On the other hand, really hope he gets better soon. D:

[dreamerbri.livejournal.com]

that's my worst nightmare. anything to involve eye injury just grosses me out so much. ugh...i hope he'll still be able to see out of that eye. :(

[coolie-bins.livejournal.com]

How awful, I hope he takes all the time he needs to rest :( He's so cute with his apology though, but really just rest the hell up dude don't aggravate it anymore ya nerdlord.
