This drama airs on a cable channel/pay TV which normally has a relatively smaller audience compared to free-to-air TV/public broadcasters (KBS , SBS , MBC and EBS ).
Production
In January 2019, YG Studioplex, the drama production affiliate of YG Plus , belatedly announced that it has terminated its co-CEO Cho Jung-ho and filed a case against him. According to the company, ex-CEO Cho made an illegal contract to sell the distribution rights of Love Alert in Japan to an unnamed Japanese distribution company through his own firm Barami Bunda Inc. , which was a co-owner in YG Studioplex. Cho also stole much money from investors, one of those was the drama's co-producer The Groove Company .[ 12]
