This is not the first time Kang Ji-hwan suffered from predicaments while filming 'Monster – 2016'. Last April, he had acute enteritis symptoms while filming 'Monster – 2016' and was sent to an emergency room.

Also, when he was filming the charnel house scene on May 14th, he accidentally touched a heated metal drum. It was an intense crying scene and Kang Ji-hwan could not even realize he had burn injury on his hand even after the director gave him ok sign to him for the scene.
