According to the current tvN television schedule, the time slip romance "Lovely Runner" will narrowly avoid a preemption on Monday by starting thirty minutes earlier. The fifth episode of "Lovely Runner" will air at 8:20 PM on April 22nd. Normally, the television drama airs at 8:50 PM, but there will be a soccer game at 9:40 PM that evening in the 2024 AFC U-23 division. South Korea will be playing against Japan in this game, with Olympic qualification in the 2024 Paris Olympic Games at stake.

South Korea and Japan will both proceed to the knockout stage regardless of the outcome, having defeated the United Arab Emirates and China in their previous two games. This game will mainly determine seeding. The loser will face Qatar in the next round, while the winner will play either Indonesia, Jordan, or Australia. "Lovely Runner" had ratings of 3.378% in its last episode, the fourth, which aired on April 16th.
