[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Min Jun-young] Comedian Park Na-rae's entry into the United States was unfortunately thwarted due to the aftermath of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).


Park Na-rae was scheduled to perform on the stage of 'Netflix Is a Joke Fest,' hosted by Netflix, on the 29th of next month. It had raised expectations as a comedy show performed in Korean locally, based on 'Park Na-rae's Nongyeom Warning,' which was released on Netflix last October.


However, due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation, her dream of entering the U.S. market has become difficult. In addition, KBS 2TV's 'Stand Up,' starring Park Na-rae, has also faced difficulties recruiting live audiences due to COVID-19 and has stopped recording since February 15. The exact date for resumption is unknown.


Comedians whose stage plans have been canceled are appearing one after another, including Park Na-rae. Comediennes Park Mi-sun, Kim Seong-eun, and Kwon Jin-young planned to start the comedy show 'Yeotang Show' from March but postponed it until after May.



The comedy group Namolla Family's 'Hot Show' has also been suspended since February, and tvN's 'Comedy Big League' and KBS 2TV's 'Gag Concert' are currently recording without live audiences.
