Model-turned-actor Kim Young-kwang was in a minor car accident on Sunday but immediately returned to filming the drama “D-Day,” reports said Tuesday.

Kim’s associates told the actor to take a rest, but Kim continued filming the show that airs Fridays and Saturdays on cable network JTBC. “D-Day” is about a medical crisis that confronts doctors when a devastating earthquake hits Seoul.

Kim is among a rising group of models-turned-actors who have been active in such shows as SBS drama “Pinocchio” (2014) and “Can We Really Get Married?” (2012), aired on JTBC.
