[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Jung-yoon] The production team of the comprehensive programming channel JTBC's entertainment program caused a police dispatch after using the apartment's common electricity during filming.


According to the police on the 7th, the Songpa Police Station in Seoul received a 112 report at 9:37 p.m. on the 5th from a resident of an apartment in Pungnap-dong, Songpa-gu, stating, "The broadcasting production team is using the apartment's common electricity without permission."


At the time, JTBC's entertainment program '1hoga doel sun eopseo' was being filmed in the apartment. It was reported that the comedian couple Kim Hak-rae and Lim Mi-sook, who appear on the program, are residents of the apartment.


The management office, which met with the dispatched police officers, stated, "We will decide whether to claim compensation after a meeting of the building representatives." The police guided the complainant on the complaint procedures and closed the case on site.


The complainant, resident A, reportedly had warned the production team about using the electric cord in the apartment stairwell a month ago, but similar situations repeated, leading to the report.



In response, JTBC said, "We conveyed our apologies through the police for not paying enough attention to on-site management that day and expressed our intention to take responsibility and resolve any additional issues that may arise," adding, "We sincerely apologize to the residents again and will be careful to prevent any further problems."
