An official with the show's producer explained that Cha's health has improved vastly and he will be released from the hospital to rejoin the cast by mid-October.

"We have made some changes to the script and have limited the outdoor scenes that include Cha", the official added, saying that not many modifications have been made to the script.

Two weeks ago, the model-actor had flown back to Korea while filming in Japan, to be treated for his illness.

A spin-off to last year's blockbuster drama "IRIS", "ATHENA" is about terrorist acts and threats against the Korean Peninsula and the whole world.

The action drama also features a star-studded cast of Jung Woo-sung, Soo Ae, Lee Ji-ah, Kim Min-jong and Choi Si-won of idol group Super Junior. "ATHENA" will premiere in December.
