Okay, now it’s time to get EXCITED people! Upcoming SBS Mon-Tues romance sageuk Red Sky (Hong Chun Gi or Lovers of the Red Sky) is scheduled to premiere on August 30th, according to VIU Singapore streaming platform which has the South Asia distribution rights for the drama. It sucks that streaming partners are more on top of dates and promos while SBS is sitting on its arse doing next to nothing in hyping up Red Sky. The drama also officially wrapped production last week and the two adorable leads Kim Yoo Jung and Ahn Hyo Seob took BTS pictures with the cast and crew and a few were posted online. I like Ahn Hyo Seob’s classic yangban look way more that the weird emo hair slash thing he was sporting in the teaser preview, not to mention he’s a drop dead doppleganger for Park Seo Joon here it’s not even funny. Now I need those two in a brother comedy movie next.
This drama was apparently in talks with C-actor Ding Yu Xi before his just aired…
This year 2024 has been a slow year for K-actress Suzy in terms of her…
There are weird casting choices and this one is weird from both the leads itself…
Well this is an interesting pairing, setting aside the age difference at least I can…
I swear I just wrote about Song Joong Ki having his first baby and then…
At the end of the day, the core of any good drama remains the Story,…

They keep moving the date. And it seems like VIU is the broadcasting channel not SBS.
I don't know anymore with SBS.
I feel like they are still afraid of what happened to JE. But the thing is, they will still air it anyway, so why not just promote it properly.
Ugh, I don't know why they didn't just go with Netflix for the broadcasting rights because who even has a VIU subscription? It's a high profile drama and both leads have worked with Netflix before so it just pisses me off.
Yeah. I am also hoping for Netflix. It's the most popular streaming site worldwide.
I'm not really familiar with VIU. But I will pray for the drama to still have an international success despite not being in Netflix. Really praying for Domestic & international success of this drama. I'm so invested with the Novel just by reading some excerpts of it.
better postpone than clash with olimpics
Olympics will finish on the 8th right? Am I correct? The original date is Aug. 23 but they moved it to 30th. And SBS should have aired a trailer during Olympics for promotion but they didn't use their chance. I hope before it ends, they will air it so many people will know that it's going to premiere soonest.
yes. but there's also paralympics after olimpic. i also don't understand with sbs. tvn sept drama already gave out their teasers. i won't be surprised anymore if they decide to postpone everything to September
Ah I see. Thanks. We can only just hope for a better promotion for the drama.
They are still filming. Some of the cast finished already but the main cast are still filming.
Anyway, SBS is really not promoting Hong Chun Gi. It's their another loss if they will not do their job.
Yes, they're not yet done.
They've been filming since Dec. 2020 and it's been so many months already. Sageuk really requires a lot of filming. SBS should promote HCG well. I hope they will do something.
The only thing I don't get is the lack of promotion from SBS. We keep getting update from VIU instead of the broadcasting channel. I heard they are not yet done filming but almost there.
I wanna see the trailer already.
Don't understand what SBS are doing. They are going to air it so why not promote it.
Exactly my thoughts. Even if they moved it to 30th, it's still August. And no character posters yet. While other broadcasting channels who will air a drama in September, already have trailers and char. posters.
LOL.
VIU is the one updating everything.
SBS doesn't want to cooperate.
Do they think they will bounce back from their loss from JE if they will not promote Hong Chun Gi? They're too careful this time to the point that they forgot to promote.
Sbs know this drama will flop that's why they don't promote it.I feel bad for kim yoo jung.
Btw i wonder why han so hee decided not doing movie with joo ji hoon?Maybe because nevertheless flopped hard?I don't belived the reason is healthy.
I hope Hong Chun Gi will still be a successful drama even with the lack of promotion from SBS. Praying that Knetz will support this drama by watching it real time, not just on streaming platforms and make a lot of positive buzz.
I still want to think positive that this drama will succeed in ratings despite of what is happening. I've been waiting for this drama for almost a year now and I would like to fully enjoy it. Fighting Kim Yoo Jung and HCG team!
We saw a behind the scene low quality pics of their first glimpse in character through some staff who uploaded in their personal blog. Because SBS didn't do their job in promoting this drama. They didn't even announce themselves that the drama airing will be moved. It was VIU who first gave notice. What do you think are you doing SBS? It will air in August but not a single character poster was released.
True. It's so annoying already. But waiting is the only thing we can do right now. Let's just pray for the drama's success even with the lack of promotion. I hope many Knetz will tune in so we can have excellent ratings. ?
Yes! I will really pray that this drama will have high ratings because of good storyline, excellent acting and everything! ?
