Kang PD's insensitive remark about the Sewol Ferry tragedy became controversial and the PD received heavy criticism.
In response to the issue, Bae Kyung Soo CP told YTN Star, "Kang Min Kyung PD was filming an interview scene of a character who got into an accident. It's true that she said, 'This is not a Sewol Ferry interview. Brighten up your expression'. She mistakenly used the comparison. One staff member, who was displeased by the remark, shared the incident on the staff's chat room."
Bae CP continued, "Kang PD also received criticism internally and she officially apologized in front of the staff. She knows her wrongdoings and is reflecting on her actions."
Meanwhile, 'Lovely Horribly' starring Song Ji Hyo and Park Si Hoo is a romantic horror drama. The first episode is set to air on August 13.
