Actor Park Shin-yang will reveal hidden production stories from the drama Sign and open up about pivotal moments in his acting career.
On the KBS2 variety show Problem Child in House, airing on the 19th, Park appears to unpack behind-the-scenes episodes from the project's birth.
The broadcast shares that when rookie writer Kim Eun-hee's debut work, Sign, faced a scheduling crisis, Park's decision to join flipped the situation on its head. He also stuns the cast by disclosing that director Jang Hang-jun, who initially helmed the series, was replaced during production. With Jang now a hit filmmaker thanks to the film The King's Warden, curiosity is surging over what really happened back then.
Park's rigorous preparation process also comes to light. To play a forensic pathologist, he attended real autopsies dozens of times, witnessing examinations of as many as nearly 100 bodies. He confesses, "After each visit, I felt like I needed a drink," underscoring how grueling the experience was.
He also recounts extreme survival stories from his study-abroad days in Russia—from facing threats amid poor public safety, to nearly being evicted due to financial hardship, to collapsing from malnutrition—sharing it all candidly and leaving a strong impression.
The episode airs at 8 p.m. on the 19th.
