On March 9, Netflix issued an official statement regarding the release date of its original series Goodbye Earth.

Netflix stated, "As of now, nothing has been decided. We will provide information [about the K-drama's release] through official sources as soon as the release date is determined."

Earlier, one Korean media outlet reported that the release date of Goodbye Earth, which had been temporarily postponed, was confirmed for April 26, but Netflix refrained from commenting on this matter. 

Goodbye Earth tells the story of people living in a world that is headed towards destruction, with only 200 days left until the collision of Earth and an asteroid. Yoo Ah In, along with Ahn Eun JinJeon Sung WooKim Yoon Hye, and others, are cast in the series. 

The release date of Goodbye Earth has been postponed due to actor Yoo Ah In's controversy.  

Yoo Ah In has been accused of habitual use of propofol 181 times under the guise of sedative anesthesia at hospitals in Seoul from September 2020 to March 2022. Additionally, from May 2021 to August 2022, he is suspected of purchasing approximately 1,100 sleeping pills through illegal prescription 44 times under someone else's name.
