Cast

Controversy

Accusations of plagiarism were made by the author of novel Blood Rhapsody, which the production denied.[9][10][11][12]

Ham Eun-jung was initially cast as the female lead Hong Da-mi, and she had already appeared in the promotional teasers and stills, as well as attended the press conference. But due to the negative publicity stemming from T-ara's bullying controversy, the production fired her and replaced her with Jin Se-yeon.[13][14][15] Ham filed a lawsuit against the producers,[16] and the Corea Entertainment Management Association (CEMA) issued a boycott against the production company Yein E&M.[17] In February 2013 Yein E&M issued a formal apology for firing Ham without notice.[18]
