Hanyejo Company actors refused to continue acting because of their statement that MBC hasn't been paying them enough. Thus, the hit drama "Dong Yi" has stopped filming.

The staff for the drama say that they were ready in the set for filming like any other day when the actors did not show up that they could not continue filming that day. The filming that day was supposed to be aired on the 6th and 7th, however, the drama may not air those days if filming doesn't continue.

The staff are trying to have the stars come to film, but it's not been easy to persuade them.

The salary amount has been demanded to MBC company and the Hanyejo company said that their actors and actresses will refuse further filming until the amount is promised. However, the salary has already been given and its not going to be easy rearranging the pay for 4 dramas such as "Mischievious Kiss" "Kim Soo Ro" "Gloria" and "Dong Yi".

The actors had returned filming on the set for the drama "Gloria" on the 3rd but had refused to act on the 2nd.
