Hwang Jung-eum Catches Swine Flu

Ex Sugar member Hwang Jung-eum has caught swine flu, according to sources.

On the 25th, the star visited a hospital due to a high fever, and announced it was swine flu from the hospital the next day during her shoot of MBC High Kick Through The Roof.

Netizens are concerned about the sitcom's plot from now on since her absence may mean a change to the story. Hwang Jung-eum and Choi Daniel's love line has increased the popularity of the show so some of the fans are requesting special episodes to be aired until her return.

The MBC staff has announced that so far they have enough materials to be aired, but it all depends on how long her absence is going to be. Meanwhile, the star is resting at her home.
