On the morning of the 21st, tvN's "The Midnight Romance in Hagwon" said, "We recognized the problem immediately after the broadcast and reflected it in the VOD service and rerun as a deleted version of the scene".
"The Midnight Romance in Hagwon" said, "We respectfully apologize for the inconvenience caused by the inconsiderate part, and we will pay more attention to the production of high-quality content".
In the fourth episode of "The Midnight Romance in Hagwon", which aired on the 19th, Seo Hye-jin (Jung Ryeo-won) was drinking with Nam Cheong-mi (So Ju-yeon) and took the wheel after finishing lecture practice with Lee Joon-ho (Wi Ha-jun). It was drunk driving. Because of this, viewers criticized "The Midnight Romance in Hagwon" for not being careful, and tvN eventually deleted Seo Hye-jin's drunk driving scene from the replay services and clip footages.
