Jun Hyun-moo Plan 4 producers deny restaurant staging allegations
Production teams for the variety show ‘Jun Hyun-moo Plan 4’ have denied allegations that the program pre-arranges restaurant visits or scripts spontaneous situations. The controversy arose following online rumors and unverified eyewitness accounts suggesting that filming crews were waiting at locations before the cast arrived, implying the ‘unplanned’ nature of the show was staged.
In an official statement, the producers from MBN and Channel S clarified that they do not contact restaurants in advance to discuss filming or notify them of the cast's visit. They emphasized that maintaining this principle of spontaneity has been a core production rule since the show's inception. The team expressed regret over reports that presented unverified claims as facts and stated they would take active measures to correct misinformation if necessary.
Host Jun Hyun-moo indirectly supported the production team's stance by liking their official response on social media. The scrutiny follows a separate controversy involving the program ‘I Live Alone,’ where producers apologized for a perceived lack of transparency regarding a trip to Kazakhstan.
