But what truly sparked buzz was the provocative kiss scene between leads Ha Ji Won and Ju Ji Hoon. The intense kiss shared in front of a bathroom toilet went viral online immediately after the broadcast.
Viewers reacted with comments like, “This made me blush,” “That’s an adult kiss,” “A kiss scene in front of a toilet???” “I’ve never seen Ha Ji Won like this before,” and “Is this really rated PG-15?!” proving just how much attention the scene drew.
