SBS drama series “Saimdang, Light’s Diary,” starring Lee Young-Ae & Song Seung-Heon has been shortened from 30 episodes to 28 episodes. Since the drama series finished filming last year, the shortening of the drama series requires minor re-editing (cutting out unnecessary scenes) and a slight modification to the story construction. The drama series will still end as originally scheduled on May 4, 2017, but with episode 28. This is due to the series not airing on April 13 for the presidential candidate debate and May 3rd for a movie. “Suspicious Partner” will then take over its time slot on May 10, 2017.
