Filming of ’1 Night 2 Days’ cancelled for this week due to KBS labor strike

The recording of ‘1 Night 2 Days‘ has been cancelled for this week.
KBS2′s ’1 Night 2 Days’ was scheduled to be filmed on April 6th and 7th, but has been abandoned due to labor union strikes that have been taking place at KBS.

Recently ’1N2D’ Choi Jae Hyung PD, ‘Qualification of MenCho Sung Sook PD, ‘Gag ConcertSuh Soo Min PD, ‘Win WinPark Ji Young PD and others have joined in the new labor union strikes at KBS, so it seems most of the variety shows for KBS will not begin recording for the time being.

A source within KBS stated, “Currently ’1N2D’ will air what has already been filmed and hopefully the next broadcast will go according to plan.”

On April 1st the third episode filmed at Chungsun was shown.  The Chungsun episode was broadcast the previous two weeks, and this third episode focused on scenes that were previously not shown, and left viewers wondering if this had been due to the strike. However, a staff member at KBS revealed, “The Chungsun trip was already planned to air in three different episodes,” but many still feel that it was due to the labor union strikes.

Choi Jae Hyung PD who is currently leading the new season of ’1N2D’ has been involved with the labor union strikes, and on April 4th at 2pm KST, the different PD’s from KBS’s varieties shows entered a new labor union strike, and will hold an emergency press conference to explain their decision.

Let’s hope for a speedy resolution so that the situation does not end up like MBC!
