Faith was '90s drama que Kim Hee-sun's comeback project, her first TV appearance in five years after her marriage and childbirth. The production of Faith was riddled with problems. The initial budget was 10 billion won (about US$10 million) but the series got its budget slashed, and was pushed back multiple times because of the leading actor. The drama was announced in 2009 with Lee Joon-gi as a main lead. However, the actor had to be replaced because he was drafted in the army. Born in 1982, Lee would normally have time to list until the d of 2010 but he received his papers early, shortly after beginning his new film project. This forced him to drop Faith, as well as his horse-racing movie Grand Prix, which had already begun shooting. Lee had tried to postpone listmt to finish these two projects by the d of the year, but was unable to do so.
He was replaced by Kang Ji-hwan (Coffee House) who, however, had to withdraw after a request by the tertainmt Managemt Association because of his ongoing contract dispute and legal fight with his former and currt managemt companies.

The antagonist, Kim Seung-soo, also left, with the majority of the original cast at that time. This was a severe blow to the budget, as 10 million won had reportedly be spt on promotion with Kang as the lead.
It seems that at that time the story itself was rewritt to some extt. A released trailer with Kang Ji-hwan showed a differt atmosphere, much darker, more epic and dramatic than what was finally filmed.
Filming for Faith began on May 24, 2012 and it aired from August 13 to October 30, 2012. The ratings were mediocre but rarely dropped below 10%.
Faith, Korean Drama
On October 19, a little before the d, the news was published that Lee Phillip (who played Dr. Jang Bin), sustained an eye injury and had to pull out of the drama. The injury did not arise during drama filming, but because he was scheduled for surgery next week he would not be able to continue shooting. Many viewers agreed that It's too bad that he leaves so close to the drama's finale without getting to be a part of it. On the other hand, it's both fortunate for the drama and a damn shame for him that he's barely a presce in the show to begin with, despite the setup hinting at a much meatier role.
The writer Song Ji-na uploaded the original script on her website and it was obvious that there were considerable changes in the final product, some of them because of lack of money. However, Faith had financial problems almost from its start and they did not finish after the drama wrapped. Six months after the d of its airing, many of the cast and crew of that drama had not be paid. The acting, editing, and producing salaries which had not be paid amounted to 1.7 billion won. Drama producer and direction Kim Jong-hak, whose credits include Eyes of Dawn, Sandglass, Daemang (2002) and Legd (2007), was accused of double-contracting the Faith OST rights (to two separate companies) in the fall of 2012 became the subject of a police investigation for embezzlemt and breach of trust. Kim was sued in February 2013 under the charge that he had embezzled 2 billion for personal use and summoned by police for ongoing investigation. He took his own life on July 23, 2013, by carbon dioxide, in a gositel room.
This tragic death and many of the ills of Korean dramas have be attributed to the outsourcing of production to indepdt companies which struggle to cover the exorbitant cost of writers and stars.
