"Lee Byung Hun showed mild symptoms of cold on the day of Blue Dragon Movie Awards (December 2). He visited the hospital to receive the medications but received a checkup for the H1N1 virus just in case.

The day after the hospital visit, we were told the results were positive and immediately began to give Lee Byung Hun Tamiflu. He was only able to receive an hour of sleep that day and continued his midnight filmings. Luckily, Lee fully recovered after only a couple of days .

The team was filming the GwangHwaMun shooting scene where no close contact was needed, so none of the others were infected. That includes the staff, friends, managers and families. "
