- Letter of Intent Information to MBC-SBS, The fact that they also sent a Reservation to KBS
- Although it exceeds 10 billion won sold contracts and rights  overseas 'Drifting Possibilities'.

Drama City Conquest starring Kim Hyun Joong with a studio production investment that costs over 40 billion won having troubles in organizing on which channel to air and has now been put into delay. Despite the drama has until recently organized a conference with KBS, it was reported that it failed to close an agreement with the said network.

Baek Media's proposal has been reviewed but "KBS decided that the drama doesn't fit and it should be postponed".

City Conquest have known to send a letter of intention also to SBS and MBC and was supposed to air after the drama 'School 2013'. But KBS' side disapproved it.
KBS's side stated that the drama's intimidating, weight of its production cost and violent outline contents has made them hesitant to broadcast the drama. But Media Baek said "We are still trying to consult the issue with KBS and and we've organized a meeting with the Network's Drama Department on the 17th."

So we still have a chance. Don't lose hope. Let's pray Media Baek finds a way out of this and convince KBS to broadcast City Conquest. Fighting! ^^

Why is the production cost so high ? US $37 millions. That doesn't make sense at all. So far the filming is done in Japan and South Korea only. That translate to almost US $2 Million per episode. KBS is just coming out with all kinds of excuses to reject the project.

I just read in the chinese blog that it is 4 billion won and not 40 billion won. It is less than US $4 Millions. 30 % of the filming are already done.

This sounds like a lot of run around. Give us City Conquest already!!!!! I'm willing to bet IRIS 2 has its share of "violence" and it looks expensive. These sound like excuses, but why?????????
