While the SBS drama’Choseongu Masa’, which was accused of distorting the history of the founding of the Joseon Dynasty and disparaging great people such as Taejong and Sejong, was in the process of abolition, the cast actors began to erase the traces of appearing in’Chosun Gumasa’.
As a result of the interview with Ten Asia on the 26th, SBS decided to abolish’Chosun Gusama’. ‘Chosun-gu Masa’ will no longer be aired after the second episode, which aired until the 23rd. The official position was announced on the morning of the 26th, but it was reported that the company decided to abolish it.
Among them, the actors who appeared in’Chosun Gumasa’ are erasing traces of the drama from Instagram, etc., attracting attention.

Kim Dong-joon, who encouraged the city hall despite the criticism of’Choseon-gu Masa’, deleted all the contents related to’Chosun-gu Masa’, and Lee Yoo-bi also erased the promotional phrase of’Chosun-gu Masa’. Jeong Hye-sung also took off all the selfies and official photos related to’Chosun-gu Massa’.
Previously,’Chosun Gumasa’ was criticized for distorting history with scenes and lines that insult Taejong and King Sejong, and props covered in Chinese style. Viewers posted a petition requesting’stop broadcasting’, and they also filed a complaint with the Korea Communications Standards Commission.
In addition, a list of companies that participated in production support and advertisements circulated and even a’boycott’ movement appeared, with about 20 advertisers adhering to the front and back of the broadcast and three production support companies participating in the ending banner advertisement declared’stop loss’.
In particular, Naju City and Mungyeong City, which had signed a contract for providing a venue and sponsorship, no longer provided a location for filming, and asked for their name to be removed from the ending, spreading their distance from’Chosun Gumasa’.
‘Chosun-gu Masa’ announced that it would fight and reorganize for a week, but eventually followed the abolition procedure and showed the ending of the history-distorting drama.
