Neither the ninth nor the tenth episode of the hybrid university drama "Cheer Up" will air on SBS this week. because of the decreased number of television dramas in South Korean prime time slots, most of the other preempted programs are all variety shows. "Curtain Call" on KBS continued its originally planned premiere, as did "Mental Coach Jegal" on tvN. As tvN is not a broadcast network, it does not normally run news stories.
