Articles like this really shed light on the physical toll and potential accidents associated with the production of films and dramas. Hope they get better soon!

For the love of God, let the two get treated first. If two weeks is needed, it should be two weeks. She has disc injury.....these things will worsen if not treated properly and cause more harm in the long run.

Ridiculous when the doctors say two weeks and management company says two days. Makes me cry for these actors.

At least since she's dressing like a man in period costume, she doesn't have to film while wearing high heels. And she can hide a lot of braces/wraps and pain patches under the robes. Poor girl, I hope resuming work against doctors suggestion doesn't result in permanent damage to her back. I imagine her and all these poor kpop boy band members 10 years down the road, sitting in drug rehab because they're addicted to OxyContin from the back injuries they couldn't treat and let heal properly due to "schedules."

?

It's ridiculous that Lee Yubi's management expects her to go back to work with medication only after 2 to 3 days, against doctor's orders. Do they know the risk? She could develop permanent back problems!

hopefully they will get soon, and other actors will not suffer any injury..

Have they not heard of stuntmen? Why didn't they use doubles?

Before, when I heard about artists/actors/actresses suing their agencies for mistreatment, sometimes I would think it's exaggerated. Then I read articles like this. These agencies are pushing their artists too hard; it really can get dangerous.

Er a herniated disc is bed rest and analgesia. Then physio sessions for moren than a few months.

Is the production company nuts?

What were they doing to get injured like this? Where are the stunt doubles?? ):

A bad back is no good. It's definitely something you have to be careful about. They should let her rest. I'm assuming Junki may get to rest fully because a nose after surgery is not something you can hide but Yubi won't get to because you can hide a bad back. Warm and Cozy is still a ways off from being over; it should be fine to take a break. :/ Anyway, I hope their "as soon as possible" doesn't mean after those 2 to 3 days.

They are humans not vampires. They should rest. I rather have the drama pushed back one to two weeks for them to rest. I can wait.

A herniated disc is very painful. They'd probably give her a cortizone injection at the disc itself. I dunno how she'll be able to move around or even stand up straight. You are basically in complete paralyzing pain for 3 days then hunched over for a week or 2.

Lee Yubi's management DOES realize there could be permanent damage if she doesn't get enough rest right? You won't be able to film later stuff if she gets messed up now, this doesn't make sense from a business standpoint either.
What the hell is their problem? Give her the minimum week, a herniated disc is NO joke. News like this disgusts me, straight up.

I read about that, maaaaan why? I hope it aint permanent damage. Teacheeeer! please get well soon. waaah why his nose?

And you think Byunpire in Producers is bad. Sheesh.

This is awful.
This is familiar.

Korean actors need a union as much as underage rug makers in India.

Isn't this the right time for the infamous K-Netzein and her and his fan to protest the treatment of the actors, even if the actors go on camera and say, "Yes, I want to threaten my future health for the current profits of my agency and producer."

Wow! Am not liking the broken nose thing. It is indeed beautiful nose. But I'm not liking the idea of a wounded disc. Backs are hard to heal...and no painkillers if rest is what's prescribed. Or else, pain killer addiction probability. So sad.

Who is Sidus HQ's CEO? Byun-pire?

I really hope Sidus/MBC doesn't force Lee Yubi back to the set before she's had the appropriate amount of rest, a herniated disc is not the kind of injury that can be easily ignored after a few painkillers. I've been looking forward to her first-ever lead role since she signed on but not like this...:(

And NOOOOOOOOOOOO not oppa's nose! His beautiful, beautiful nose....but the small upside of it being a facial injury is that he CAN'T film and will get his time to recover. Which is better luck than poor Yubi had, she's the one with the worse injury but being subjected to potential Byun-pire tactics to get her back to work at the cost of her health :(

Oh nooooooo for Lee Jun-Ki & Lee Yu-Bi. :(
Difficulty breathing through your nose and a herniated disc (for that matter back problems in general) are serious matters. No joke about it! May they both receive the best care available.

First and foremost, both actors should be allowed the proper rest to fully recuperate from the injuries they sustained. I hope LJK's beautiful nose is correctly realigned by the doctors and that he completely heals from the fractured nose/nasal bone fractures. And I hope that LYB is able to completely heal and not suffer from lifelong back pain as a result of this on the job injury (aka OJI).

This is really horrifying news--not so much the accident (which is bad in and of itself) but the complete indifference that seems to be shown by the actors' reps and the drama production team to the actors' health and well-being.

I agree with all the comments above that the actors should have sufficient time to recuperate instead of being forced to return to work.

I send my well wishes to Lee Jun-ki and Lee Yu-bi though!

can they really do that? I mean, legally, if doctors reccomend 1-2 weeks of rest, isn't it against some labour law to let the person come back to work before that time? I mean, if someone hurt themselves on set, wouldn't it be bad to let that person on set again before some doctor gives an A-ok? Because if her injury gets worse or if she gets hurt again, ins't that ground for a huge lawsuit? like against the agency for pushing it and also agaist the whole production for allowing it. And these expensieve productions, don't they work with some insurance of sorts (for accidents and such)? isn't allowing injured people to go on working against medical orders grounds to lose the insurance? I'm in a different country and also a different field that's really tense about injuries at work, so I really don't get how all this works. don't they have actor's union or something?

If the doctor says 2 weeks then its 2 weeks. No shortcut to recovery. W back injury is serious. Lee Yubi's maanagement should put their foot down. The actors wellbeing should always come first. This is ridiculous. What happens to our dear actors if they cant do other dramas in the future because of this physical abuse?
And Junki's beautiful nose needs to heal perfectly!
