'Emergency Declaration' Filming Halted Due to COVID-19 Resurgence

"Actor Who Contacted COVID-19 Confirmed Patient Tests Negative"

The film distributor Showbox announced on the 31st that filming of "Emergency Declaration" will be halted due to the resurgence of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). A representative stated, "Filming will be suspended for the time being to ensure the safety of the actors and production staff and to prevent the spread of COVID-19." One of the cast members recently came into contact with a confirmed COVID-19 case outside. The test result was negative. The actor is currently self-isolating as a precautionary measure. The representative added, "According to government guidelines, those who have been in contact with a person who tested negative are not required to self-isolate or undergo testing, so indoor set filming has continued under strict quarantine measures." However, they noted, "With COVID-19 spreading mainly in Seoul and the metropolitan area, and the risk of infection through unexpected external contact, we judged that prevention could be challenging." Directed by Han Jae-rim, "Emergency Declaration" is an aviation disaster film. It deals with events surrounding an airplane facing an unprecedented disaster. The cast includes Song Kang-ho, Lee Byung-hun, Jeon Do-yeon, Kim Nam-gil, Im Si-wan, Kim So-jin, and Park Hae-joon.
