Election coverage pre-empts Bad Guy
by javabeans
Episode 3 of SBS’s new revenge thriller Bad Guy was scheduled to air on Wednesday, and there was no advance notice of its pre-emption, but the broadcast ended up being postponed due to coverage of the local elections.
That means Episode 3 will be shown on Thursday instead. One source (Consumer News, Korean language) has reported that SBS will broadcast both 3 and 4 on Thursday, but it’s the only outlet doing so; most other reports don’t make mention of it, so unfortunately I wouldn’t hold my breath. A look at the drama’s official site shows that a notice has been posted for a Thursday broadcast of the third episode, but there’s no official mention of the fourth. Most fans are clamoring for both to be aired this week. (As consolation, if there’s no double-broadcast tomorrow, there’s a good chance the drama will order an extra episode, so there’s that.)

Guess the future of the country takes precedence over my desire to gaze upon Kim Nam-gil. But I don't like it. :-(

I hope we get doubles tomorrow! Although that would make my day much busier with two episodes of Bad Guy AND the finale of Cinderella's Sister!

From the station (SBS) point of view (a.k.a profit), i don`t know about Bad Guy rating, but CS is pretty strong and on its last episode, so it`s gonna get more stronger. So, i think they`re just gonna aired 1 eps. tonight.
From MY point of view....PLEASE GIVE ME DOUBLE!!!

14 Despite the hype
June 3, 2010 at 8:11 AM
Despite all the hype, SBS does not seem to like this drama very much to the extent of not even bothering to air it whenever they have the chance not to. Without any notice, they remove the drama from its usual slot only to replace it with another. Although elections are important, there should at least be ample notice to inform viewers about the change in scheduling. It is not as if the elections are only planned last minute. If not for changes in casting in I Am Legend, I doubt BG would ever see the light of the day. Now next week, there will not be any BG screened as well due to Fifa World Cup. I wonder if BG is really that melodramatic or upsetting that the higher-ups have lots of issues with? That is not the way to treat a drama under its label. I am really disappointed at the way SBS does things sometimes.

WHAT? NO Bad Guy next week either? I don't even live in Korea but that's very disappointing. I will have to wait THAT much longer to download the ep and see it subbed. SIGH.

I'll post this later as well, but there WILL be Bad Guy episodes next week. However, the World Cup is the week after, and there will not be episodes that week.
This week: Episode 3
Next week: Episodes 4-5
June 16-17: World Cup
June 23-24: Episodes 6-7
