Step-by-Step Scheduling

To identify the drama staged after D, we must first determine the unique, valid schedule for the 5 dramas and 1 break based on all the given rules. This is the same deduction as in the previous related questions.

1. Summary of Deductions

A full analysis of all the constraints reveals that there is only one possible valid schedule. This schedule places the break in the 3rd hour.

2. The Final Schedule

The only arrangement that satisfies all conditions is:

  • 1st Hour: B
  • 2nd Hour: D
  • 3rd Hour: Break
  • 4th Hour: C
  • 5th Hour: A
  • 6th Hour: E

Conclusion

The question asks which drama was staged immediately after D. Looking at the schedule, D is staged in the 2nd hour. The next event is the break in the 3rd hour, and the next drama to be staged is in the 4th hour.

The drama in the 4th hour is C.
