Saw this titillating scene of CP's back from the novel then took a look at the closest of what we had

Mr PD, you will be the death of me 

Why are you so stingy? PBG is not a minor, he deserved to show off his back like in the novel too

Aside from the fact that MDBC is still on going KYJ isn't exactly a new comer and same with other nominees as well so I'm a bit confused with APAN's criteria for nomination. But whatever uri yoojungie has proven already how good she is on her craft so with an award or not she's still the best actress of her generation for me and I'll always cheer her on! 

i think for KYJ, MDBC is her 1st lead role after being a child actress.  i think there is no child actor/actress award in such awards ceremony, so in the past they are not able to be nominated. I think to be nominated in such a category, you need to be in a lead/supporting role.  For PBG, it make senses that he was nominated for R88 instead of MDBC though i felt he was alot better and able to  show his talent in this drama.  I'm not sure how the award nomination works, but i remembered before that a drama actor of 10years can still be nominated as a newcomer in movie award as long as it is the first time they are cast in a movie.

I have used up most of my imagination from epi1-12, I am quite brain dead now

Actually KYJ won the APAN award for best young actress in 2012.  I honestly think the awards and nominations are strange.  PBG has also done other roles prior to Reply so is it because of it's their first leading role?

I'm curious what other awards MDBC will get during the awards season.

There was an article in Singapore English newspaper today about teen actresses doing the scenes of adult nature(eg. skinship, kissing scenes,etc).  Moonlight drawn by clouds and Kim Yoo Jung was mentioned in the article. The heading said viewers are divided, but from the people they have interviewed, none of them said they are uncomfortable with it.  In fact, the viewers are so rational that they mentioned about k-pop female idols showing more skin in music shows, so they can accept KYJ acting in kissing scenes. Initially, i was a bit angry, because Kim So Hyun who acted in a tvn drama has more kissing scenes than KYJ and they are the same age. Secondly, Kim So Hyun is in Singapore presently, so i was puzzled why are they targetting at Kim Yoo Jung instead.  On second thoughts, it shows that this drama is daebak, popular and good, it will attract readers' attention instead.

Teen actresses: Where's the line?

Is it appropriate for a 17-year-old actor to be doing scenes of an adult nature? Viewers are divided

South Korean actress Kim Yoo Jung, who is currently seen in popular ongoing period drama Love In The Moonlight, has had a number of steamy scenes in the show. The thing is, she is only 17.

And this has caused some South Korean viewers to be outraged at what they saw as exploitation of a young star.

Although Kim has been acting for more than a decade, this is her first romantic lead role. She plays an 18-year-old who cross-dresses as a eunuch to serve the crown prince, only to fall in love with him.

In the show, she romances and kisses her older co-star Park Bo Gum, 23. She is also seen binding her chest with cloth.

Despite what South Korean audiences feel, viewers in Singapore whom The Straits Times spoke to do not have issues with Kim's scenes. The show airs in Singapore on streaming site Viu and KBS World (StarHub TV Channel 815).

Secondary school student Chan Yan Yu, 16, says: "Her age does not matter if she does not have a problem with the scenes and she fits the role and plays it well."

Ms Lydia Lee, 26, a quality assurance specialist, says: "Perhaps some people are uncomfortable because it is not common for young actors to play the romantic lead in Korea. Kim Yoo Jung definitely looks older than her age. If you do not know her age, you will not be uncomfortable."

She points out that K-pop idols about Kim's age show even more skin while teen actresses in the West also act out explicit sex scenes.

American actress Brooke Shields, now 51, caused an uproar when, at the age of 12, she played a child prostitute in the American historical drama Pretty Baby (1978). At 14, she continued her nude streak as a shipwrecked teen in the coming-of-age flick The Blue Lagoon (1980).

Hongik University assistant professor Lee Soo Jin says only a small section of South Korean TV viewers objected to Love In The Moonlight.

The Seoul-based liberal arts professor tells The Straits Times in an e-mail: "This is kind of similar to K-pop girl group members - teenage girls who enter the adult business world and begin training at a very early age and perform suggestive choreography while wearing sexy clothes.

"Nowadays, people do not criticise that as much as they used to 10 years ago. Perhaps people have become comfortable with teenage girls doing adult things. Or people have come to acknowledge teenage performers' professionalism."

Young actors, too, think that it is okay to do whatever the script requires - such as intimate scenes - as long as it is in the name of work.

Oh, there is an award category for young actress?  does it means that category is for a certain age and below? you are right about PBG nomination as well.  He has done a few supporting roles before Reply & MDBC, wonder if they added his name to get him to attend the award ceremony?

Re : your video of CP and Raon favourite scene

If you want you can make a new video as part 2 

I was thinking about doing a ver. to Roxanne (tango ver.) but it is 100% longer, so it will take some time. But I'll try..

The article headline reads as a bit misleading as though there were a lot of risque scenes for KYJ, for viewers who didnt watch the drama, this isnt good press for KYJ but fortunately those who gave their comments were reasonable that they didnt think there was any inappropriateness

Totally dislikes entertainment media who trys to grab eyeballs by having such headlines

This drama is as pure as extra virgin olive oil and the driven snow, tsk tsk

@yuuinokokoro  fighting !! .... you can do it !! 

@JinyoungFox omo .... thanks for sharing the video .... OMG !! CAN WE HAVE "FOGGY ROAD" of YS ver. ??? ...  

[NRGchick]

Referring to the article about steamy scenes in Moonlight. 

I had to LOL at that. I was talking to a colleague (male) about the drama and how it is strange that on music shows we have young idols dressed skimpily (I swear it is difficult to find a music video with the young girls dressed appropriately even during winter) and yet a simple chest binding scene and a very (chaste) kiss having so much drama. 

I think we can agree that there is a lack of steamy scenes and now more cheek poking by our CP (and even a dot on the forehead) as a sign of affection. 

I don't hope for more so I am not having high expectations of next episode (including the 'bed scene' where our OTP actually just sleeps) However, did you notice that CP was in his silky bedclothes/pyjamas? So I assume that he pulled her down and looped his arm around her to prevent her from leaving.

I feel they get another nomination for korean drama awards next month bec of good performance in mdbc and also wining last year in kbs drama award pbg are qualify to top excellence excellence or daesang. And for kyj new actress category 50/50%chance to nominated to  top excellence excellence bec she so young for these category and for the couple they have a chance to won best couple awards kbs also known by giving multiple winners in this category.

This awesome video. It's like a movie trailer than drama. Who ever made it must be a film student or something. Thanks for sharing

I present to you my personal favourite - the bed scene 

In all fairness, PD included a bedscene, just that nothing else happened on it

• Unsurprisingly, sales of Yoon Yi-soo’s original novels for Moonlight Drawn By Cloudshave received a boost from the popularity of the show, and have sold 200,000 copies to date since becoming available in March 2015 (sales had been steady until the drama premiered, and have skyrocketed since). The pace makes the Moonlight books the most popular youth sageuk romance since The Moon That Embraces the Sun — the 2005 novels were adapted into the Kim Soo-hyun and Han Ga-in-starring drama in 2011, which helped boost sales of those books to 800,000. The original work thatSungkyunkwan Scandal was based on sold 800,000 copies domestically, 150,000 copies in China and 140,000 in Japan, and there are plans to translate the Moonlight books into Chinese, Japanese, and Thai as well.
