The Oedipus myth is also famous for posing the Sphinx’s riddle - “What walks on four feet in the morning, two in the afternoon and three at night?” - the answer to which is “Man.” For the role of Oedipus, veteran actor Hwang Jung-min, who has been more active on the big screen in recent years, has been cast.

I've had a look and there isn't really anything else, so I think it's best to have a 2-week Seollal rest unless anything big happens in the next few days
