[News] 120714 MBC’s ‘Dr. Jin’ Extended Two Episodes

MBC’sDr. Jin‘ starring Song Seung Hun, Lee Bum Soo, and Kim Jaejoong has been extended by 2 more episodes.

A staff member at the drama said on July 12th, “We have decided to add two more episodes.  Although we started with a plan of just 20 episodes it seems that it will be hard to tie up the story so for the sake of creating a more complete story, we have decided to add the extra episodes.”  Dr. Jin is now scheduled to conclude in early August.

 The actors have already shown a positive response to this idea.  Lee Bum Soo recently stated, “I hope it is 40 episodes and not 20.  It is too short for the viewers to follow the overall arc in just 20 episodes.“  Song Seung Hun said, “It is hard to show everything in just 20 episodes especially for a historical drama.

Even after the positive response from the actors, the staff was still worried on how the viewers would take the news that the show has been extended.  ‘Dr. Jin’ began airing on May 26th alongside SBS’sGentleman’s Class‘ with the plan of ending on July 29th.  A staff member said, “With the extension of our show, some people might think that we are trying to take the place of the number one show in our time slot, ‘Gentleman’s Class.’  But we never thought about the ratings when we made this decision.

Are you looking forward to the additional episodes?

  1. As long as you can assure me that the character of Kim Kyung Tak will gain something joyous from this drama I’ll go as many episodes as you choose to make..So far he has been handed nothing but pain.
    It is hard to watch.each successive episode, especially the ones that give us hope only to have it reversed the next time around. This character has nothing and no one to rely on but his scoundrel of a Father who only uses Tak’s love to get his dirty work done. That said–Jaejoong, the acting is superb, You are a talented actor and you make your character believable.
    Keep Fighting, Sweetheart. <3
