Joo Won's 'Stealer: The Treasure Keeper' Gets Suspended

On April 25, broadcast network tvN relayed bad news to the public regarding the broadcast of Joo Won's "Stealer: The Treasure Keeper."

According to the reports, many dramas have been organized and started production as Wednesday and Thursday dramas under tvN.

While the abolishment of the time slot may help the fundings recover, many dramas, artists and crews will be affected by the decision, especially that tvN listed about 80 series that weren't released in the past year.

However, tvN hinted that they would reconsider organizing Monday and Tuesday works if the performer is replaced with a top star.

Fans were enraged by this decision, saying that top stars don't equal greatness as an actor. One fan commented, "They should focus on well-written plots and acting, not popularity."

Many fans of "Stealer: The Treasure Keeper" also demanded for the release of the remaining episodes of the work. However, the decision whether they will release the succeeding episodes is undecided.
