In particular, “The Match”, starring Yoo Ah In and Lee Byung Hun, has already been completed and is set to premiere in the second quarter. However, it is unknown whether the movie release will proceed as planned due to Yoo Ah In’s current investigation. “The Match” depicts the confrontation between two legendary Go players Cho Hun Hyun (Lee Byung Hun) and Lee Chang Ho (Yoo Ah In), who are teacher and student, as rivals. 

Netflix’s original drama “Goodbye Earth” tells about people living in a chaotic world 200 days ahead of the collision between the Earth and an asteroid. Yoo Ah In, Ahn Eun Jin, Jeon Sung Woo, and Kim Yoon Hye are listed in the main cast. Netflix is reviewing whether to release it in the 4th quarter of this year as scheduled. The filming of Netflix’s “Hellbound 2” set to begin in June is also expected to be postponed due to Yoo Ah In’s scandal.
