CBS recently addressed the controversy, with CBS chief Kelly Kahl telling the press Tuesday at the Television Critics Association’s press tour that the network “loved” both Kim and Park and “did not want to lose them.”
“We made very, very strong attempts to keep them and offered them a lot of money to stick around,” she said, via Entertainment Weekly. “We tried our darnedest to keep themโฆ We never like to lose characters that the audience loves off long-running shows. It’s the nature of the business. We made very lucrative offers to those actors.”
