The agency of Chae Jong-hyup, Blitzway, told Sports Chosun on the 13th that the detailed filming period for the movie 'Turtle' was specified in the contract, and Chae Jong-hyup was scheduled to start filming the drama after the filming was over within that period. However, due to the production company's circumstances, the filming period has passed under the contractThe Company confirmed that there was no prior consultation or consent process between actors, drama programming channels, and drama production companies regarding the change of filming schedule. Accordingly, the company proposed to the production company a plan to proceed with the filming of the movie after the filming of the drama, but we could not reach an agreement and inevitably sent a certificate of the termination of the appearance contract" he said.
"We still hope for smooth consultation as a priority, but if coordination is not finally achieved, legal proceedings under the contract and related laws and regulations will be carried out," he added.
'Turtle' was originally scheduled to begin filming in May, but the filming schedule was delayed due to internal circumstances, and the filming of the drama 'In Your Season', which had been confirmed in advance, was just around the corner, and the schedule needed to be adjusted. However, it is presumed that the problem occurred as the part was not coordinated.
Popcorn Films, the producer of 'Turtle', stated that the filming period (May-July) is only a detailed schedule plan, and if there is an unavoidable circumstance, it can be changed after consultation. Chae Jong-hyeop has faithfully participated in the preparation process such as script practice and rehearsal before filming, which is no different from agreeing to change the schedule" made the case. According to Popcorn Pillb, since August, Chae Jong-hyeop has not responded to martial arts practice and costume fitting, making filming impossible. If it is not resolved, it has even expressed its position that it will take legal measures, including claims for damages.
