‘The King: Eternal Monarch’ episode 13 not airing tonight

The newest episode of “The King: Eternal Monarch” won’t be airing on Netflix tonight, May 29.

Lee Min-ho’s hit series on the online streaming platform releases its new episodes every Friday and Saturday.

However, Netflix confirmed that Episode 13 would be out on Saturday, May 30, at 11:30 p.m. (KST).

According to Netflix, the new episode won’t be available tonight because SBS, the South Korean broadcast network producing TKEM, will air a “special COVID-19 broadcast” in its place.

According to Soompi’s report on Thursday, SBS will air the 2011 pandemic film “Contagion” instead.
