Whether they are officially a couple or just “close friends with mutual understanding”, I’m sure they’ve talked about the kissing/sexy scenes. Based on how they describe their “friendship”, they confide and share those kinds of worries with each other. I think Rowoon is empathethic especially to his favorite people, but both are professional actors so they would definitely understand the demand of one’s role. Definitely, there’s jealousy LOL. I couldn’t even watch those scenes myself how much more PEB   but I’d like to think it’s a healthy kind of jealousy and not due to insecurity.

 

I’ve seen some bts of those kisses (OMG with that cotton candy kiss scene!!!) I must say they were professionally done, I didn’t feel the giggles, “goosies” effect and tickling kind of feeling from him unlike in TKA. Or maybe it was just me(?) anyone who felt the same?
 

I love that @Pen G his image of being a MAN and not a BOY anymore. A sign of growth in his career! 

I know I mentioned (and other people in this forum, too) that his bed scene would launch him into a more mature career.

 

But another side of me is asking: PEB made it through 26 years in the industry and have won many awards and recognition. And the much coveted Daesang. Without even ONE BED scene. PEB matured in her career without sex scenes. I know she is being super modest. STILL. Is maturity in an acting career gauged based on sex/kiss or bed scenes? I don't know?

 

I know Rowoon admires PEB. If he were to emulate PEB and get advice from her. Why does he think a BED scene will catapult his career? If PEB won many awards without it? 

 

I don't mean that DWY is not successful. But if Tomorrow is any indication, Tomorrow on NF had much more  viewing hours than DWY. And Tomorrow did not have ANY kissing, touching, bed scene or any love interest? Of course, everything is in hindsight. They (PD nim and Rowoon) probably thought that a BED SCENE would attract more viewing hours. Obviously, it did not (compared to Tomorrow). On the other hand, the PD nim and production team probably thought that 120 million hours with a BED scene is success for them? Who knows? Right? But I am a numbers person. And numbers don't lie?

 

Am I out of line here?

 

Anybody can chime in.

 I haven't really watched most of BTS for DWY. I have seen some of the group photos and I noticed that Rowoon is not usually near Boah if they are in a photo together. I saw one group photo where they were next to each other. The personal couple photos of them all seem promotional because the Director released them on his Instagram account. Rowoon does not seem to show any special awareness of her like who she is talking to or what she is doing when they are in a group setting. I hope this makes sense. I get the impression that they are just good co-actors/friendly.  In most of the photos from TKA, Rowoon and PEB were right next to each other, and they have lots of personal couple photos.  I agree with everyone that in the BTS of TKA both Rowoon and PEB seemed a bit shy with each other especially when they filmed kissing scenes. I didn't see any shyness in any of the clips I saw from DWY from Rowoon, just professionalism and him being goofy and friendly with everyone.

Shouldn't Rowoon be sensitive to PEB's feelings, too? And he didn't EVEN just have kissing scenes. He had a BEDROOM SCENE. WOAH!

I want to believe and will bank in this belief that the actors and actresses are well protected during these scenes especially it being on TV meaning it may look very romantic but they are protected and maybe he even used a body double to film this shots.  It was dark and i don’t believe you even see his face but I only saw quick clips LOL.  I think some of these scenes we may need to adjust to way we see KSW.  He is now an actor and not an idol so he is free to push the limit of his roles unlike the probably more strict boundaries of an idol.  I trust he purposely craved out Rowoon and kept KSW safe for this reason.  
 

In terms is jealousy.  My delulu self tells me this. For DWY, PEB doesn’t have to watch it but his instagram page will be difficult for her to stay off of so he has minimal activities with his FL on it and drew the line between drama and instagram in way to not make it an eyesore for PEB or who ever his special someone is

I sometimes wonder what KSW thinks about the bed scene.  I think JBA is a very season actress on all kinds of scenes.  Perhaps it’s not even him doing the scene.  Just a thought

I will say that I am a modest person, so I tend to not enjoy watching bed scenes in general. One of the reasons I like K-dramas and K-Romance is because they were previously very conservative in that respect, and you would only have some mild kissing. You rarely saw bed scenes or if you did, they were very bland.  I did not enjoy scenes in King of the Land for the same reason. From his previous dramas, Rowoon doesn't seem to be awkward with intimate scenes/kissing scenes and was very professional. They likely had discussions (off cam) prior to the scene to get more comfortable. We all know that the BTS cameras only show a tiny snapshot of what goes into making a show. 

I am not sure why Rowoon felt he needed to do a bed scene at this stage of his career.  I can't imagine the stress that these actors endure because they feel that have to keep up with their peers or keep up with what directors and writers feel they need to do to succeed. I agree that he may want to be viewed in a different light and have more options for roles. I will say that PEB at the stage in her career where she seems to be very selective about her projects (which I admire and frustrates me because I want to see her in more projects, LOL). PEB has shared in the past that she does not have much real-life experience with relationship situations like bed scenes, so she is more hesitant or uncomfortable to act out those scenes. Maybe Rowoon is trying to demonstrate his versatility by tackling roles and dimensions of characters that he has not previously done?

I noticed the shyness too and based on KSW he definitely doesn’t seem shy with those scenes on SWNK so it only tells us one reason why he is shy and has butterflies.  He was even biting his lips after the sunset kiss.  Anyways my delulu acting up again

I remember in the Hanna radio show, I think PEB mentioned she maybe be ready to try a romcom.  I got surprised hearing that and wondered what changed and made her ready

 

To be honest, if we really think we understand KSW, I think that bed scene is something, KSW may be very shy about.  He hasn’t talked about it.  Maybe he doesn’t want to.  I am not sure.
He besties did talk about his experience in BP and how him and the FL were comfortable with each other and trusted each other so they agreed to film that scene.

I wonder how it works sometimes lol.  I do remember some restaurant posted a picture of KSW eating there and shortly, it was removed so something is definitely happening.  Has other other couples be validated? I am not familiar with dispatch and how good they are to the truth

That's right she did  They keep saying that Castaway Diva is a rom-com, but we will have to see. I can't see PEB doing a rom com that has a bed scene though maybe kissing scenes like Do You Like Brahms?  I really think that after looking at everything now that DWY is finished that TKA was a special time for PEB and Rowoon and they did things that have never done and haven't done since during that time. I think about the fact that PEB said in an interview (can't remember where) that if everyone knew who she was dating it would be embarrassing for her. I really think that even if they were to become a couple we would never know unless they are caught by Dispatch (which is unlikely since they have a lot of people protecting their privacy like their agencies and managers), or they announce their wedding.

For some reason I don’t see it as a romcom but like you said, we’ll have to see it or at least maybe they advertise it to be a romcom but it is more focused on PEB.  Perhaps even when PEB said she is ready for a romcom meaning a true romcom focus on a relationship and relationship thingy and office flirting…and meeting the rich CEO lol just stating the typical, don’t mind me

Agreed I would love to see PEB in a typical rom-com. The slightly cheesy but fun and harmless one where she can wear fabulous clothes. I would love for her to work with Jung Hae-In or Son Suk-ku or Wi Ha Jun or Ji Chang Wook. I would love to see her in an original Netflix series where they heavily promote her or a Disney + action series like Moving but not as violent. Fingers crossed she gets those opportunities in the future.

Yes the cheesiest kind.  A mood lifting one.  I actually thought Ji Chang Wook too or Lee Joon Gi. The talent would be explosive 

 

I also want to add that I noticed KSW liked Hye Yoon recent ad post on IG.  I am not when when he liked it but he seems

to be liking something of most people

Same here. I kick myself daily for NOT watching TKA when it aired. I discovered EAW then TKA, a year after on 10/2022.

 

I read here that PEB wants to take a vacation at Disney. Maybe, they will ALL go to Disney Japan on or before his fan meeting on 12/24?????? It can happen it Delulu World you know??? hahaha.

 

 

Don't know who Hyun Bin and Son Yejin are? So sorry? Only faithful to RoBin. hahahaha.

 

But yes, we appreciate your intelligent and well grounded thoughts!

Btw, I saw your post about the Couples to be revealed on Dispatch. They talked about that extensively here on this forum. With people stating: "Roun and PEB?............. Pretend to be shocked!". hahaha

 

That was Feb 2023 and Dispatch hasn't revealed their evidence yet. Unless, FNC and Namoo bought out Dispatch pictures to "catch-and-kill" the story. Either that or the talent agencies threatened to sue Dispatch? hahahaha.

Hahaha same here I was like why just now??? I’ve watched EAW on 10/2022 as well and I was so clueless that there was TKA ahead of it. Damn!

 

Let our imagination entertain us  They might go to Disneyland, nothing is impossible hahaha who would not want to go to Disneyland with your “special friend”! She’s so adorable, isn’t she? She seemed so innocent yet so feminine, so talented yet so humble. That made her even more beautiful in my (and Rowoon’s) eyes  

Re: tweet about dating news - the owner of that account who retwitted was not surprised at all, sounded like k netz and a lot of people were already suspecting that. And yes, same thoughts, I guess agencies have that power to stop the rumors, as you said “catch-and-kill” the story type. 
 

@Pen G You have to check The Negotion and Crash Landing on You so you’d meet the older version of RoBin  Hyun Bin and Son Yejin LOL. Just a short story about them since we mentioned “dating news” here. At that time (after their 1st drama) they were rumored to be dating but both agencies kept mum about it. Just like Rowoon, Hyun Bin’s personal wish after The Negotiation was to work with SYJ again then came Crash Landing on You! They were spotted in the US doing grocery together but still no confirmation from both sides. Then one day, Dispatch released a photo of them - HB in the van with SJY about to get in the van on her golf attire (maybe they received a “go” signal to do so hahaha) WHAT IF???? (yes I’m manifesting) Another project for our RoBin is on the way??? Even last one (please for heaven sake!) before they hide and not share anything with us   

 

[Yuen10]

Here is my thoughts: I still feel strongly that they are together and that they took their time after finishing their next project after TKA to establish that relationship foundation.  I believe they both support each other on their next project (CAD and DWY) meaning KSW is ok with PEB being away most of the time on an island and PEB understanding the demands of DWY.  I truly believe they have reached that mutual understanding.  For KSW I feel he shared a lot with PEB during TKA and that KSW probably really touch PEB with his sincerely and humbleness considering he is a visual in SF9.  His caring towards all staff members and passion towards acting probably really touched her and especially how he may have tried to help her with some burden and making her feel not so alone during filming really opens up a female’s heart.  A sense of security, being able to lean and also rely on someone and being able to talk to the person like a good friend.  

 

My delulu self believes that they took this long to have casting news was they planned to take that time to establish a solid relationship foundation.  I understand that KSW has gone through a terrible rock bottom time and PEB was probably burned out after several back to back filming.  Perhaps the time he spent together with PEB influenced his decisions or actually validated his decision to take better care of himself and follow his passion. Anyhow, this is purely my made up story of them.

hahaha. Don't know what that cotton candy kiss scene or the bed scene are about because I stopped watching. Not because of the Kiss Porn or anything else. It is just I got so tired with the tired, old, overused tropes like the Rich Girl Slapping Poor Girl. Oh my gosh! I could not stand it anymore. Just my personal opinion. Doesn't have to be anybody's. hehehe.

 

Agree. Whether a couple or just have a mutual understanding. They probably talk a lot.

I just saw a clip - accidentally hahaha! I don’t even check twitter because it’s everywhere LOL. Same here, I’ve watched the first few episodes but I stopped. I love Rowoon, his acting is so effective, but the flow of the story just didn’t click, I was not as attracted. Just my own point of view…

 

They sure do, they’ve built a good friendship and everyone would agree how comfortable, warm and bright it was (and still is). They get in touch I’m pretty sure!

According to the post, DWY was not so successful in SK. At the end I think that all of us have the similar opinion. They have also compared with the audience rate of TKA.  As all of  you commented, the sucess of one TV project is not only depended on how many kiss or sex scenes, it´s more depend in each single moment, how you can impact to the viewer.  These days I rewatch some epic scene of TKA and WYW. And you will feel lot of impact moment combining the shooting environment, the ost and the actors expression; in these last most of the effort is come from PEB and how she influence to her ML. Therefore they use to practice and make some adaption, instead of only listen and follow the orders of  PD nim.

 

Agree that PEB also take her time to select a good story. And Rowoon should learn about that

 

Strange that all the CAD promotional posters are not indicated that the  drama is related to romance topic. Maybe there are suprises at the end.

 

My delulu and thought. I always think that first Rowoon was fan of PEB before TKA, he mention he watch DYLB, this drama was broadcast moreless at the same time as YWNK, so in that moment both drama was competing. Again the JTBC DTLB is more permitted the kiss and bed scene, but FL seems to be not suit to Rowoon, finally the chemestry was not so great. In the case of DYLB, eventhout the story is very slow, it impact a lot to the audience with different painful scenes and some romatic kiss.

This is the reason that Rowoon intends approach to PEB in all the single moments, even is not give any chance to other actors to be close to PEB. According one of the interview to the actor who was the bad guy ( uncle of Lee Hwi ) the only way to approach PEB is try to talk with the make up team.  And also there are one picture in IG where this guy want to make a picture with PEB and stay in her side, that inmediately Rowoon ask him to change their position their position. All these signal is make me believe that Rowoon is fully in love with her. The point is we have to wait the moment, that PEB decide to put in first position their relationship in front of her acting carrer.

Yes, I understand the HOW. 1) Body Double 2) Dark - it probably was not Rowoon 3) they probably discussed it off-camera 4) shooting was not as romantic as it came out on TV 4) actors/actresses are protected

 

My question is WHY? Why would he "cross that line" and do or at least imply that he was doing a BED scene?

Especially, if PEB whom he respects, admires, asks advice from and looks up to; has not done a SINGLE BED SCENE in her career. But is very, very successful in her career.

 

Shy About the Bed Scene

Yes, he seems to be shy about the bed scene. He has not talked about it. He probably will in the future, but not now when it is still fresh.

So, if he is shy about it. Why did he do it in the first place? Was he forced to do it? Did his contract state that he was to follow the script no matter what? He respected the PD nim and the scriptwriter, that he felt he needed to please them? Did they think it would result to more viewing hours? Did Rowoon think that if he did not cooperate, he would be blacklisted by the production company, the PD nim and the writer? Was he taking ONE for the team? He is not as big as PEB yet therefore he can NOT be as picky as PEB? Or ALL of the above?

 

Wiz has given me her thoughts. I just wanted to know yours? Thank you for your thoughts.

Exactly. The reason we soured on some US shows on NF was because all these shows were just SEX and Violence. Didn't watch that King the Land or whatever it is called.

 

When I discovered EAW. Wow! I was floored. No sex. No violence. Jam packed with meaning and significance. Par excellance acting. Totally intelligent show that blew my brains out with out-of-this-world legal cases, I have never seen. We hope and pray that South Korean shows do NOT follow after US footsteps of just sex and violence. Or arbitrarily just use sex and violence on shows.

 

So your thoughts:

1) keep up with others/peers who are doing it also

2) he may want to be viewed in a different light

3) have more options of roles (like more sex roles, hahahaha)

4) did not want to displease the PD nim and writer

5) he can NOT be as picky as PEB because he is NOT as big as PEB yet

6) tackling roles and dimensions of characters he has not previously done

 

Maybe, this was also Rowoon's TESTAMENT of declaring himself as FREE to do what he wants. A sort of Declaration of Independence?

 

PS YEEESSSSSSSS! That is why we want CAD to be #1 on NF week after week after week after week after week after ... Because then she will be given  more projects by NF. And the more projects NF gives her. THE MORE WE CAN SEE HER!!!! Yay!

Yes, I remember PEB said during one of EAW NF promotional games (July 15, 2022) that final filming ends on August 15, 2022. She seemed the ONLY one to be happy that EAW filming would end. hahahaha

 

And for Rowoon's Tomorrow the show ended on May 21, 2022. 

 

Aside from just Fan Meetings for PEB Asia-wide and Rowoon fan meetings from July to Augu 2022 in Japan. And one HOW S4 casting. The both of them had no real, time consuming filming of shows. They seemed to take a long break.

Thank you!!!!! Some clarification. Sorry! I discovered EAW the week after in aired in 2022. So it was first aired on June 28, 2022. I watched it a week later. BUT I watched TKA a year later. It first aired on 10/11/2021. I watched TKA on about the third week of 10/2022. I saw the teaser but hesitated because I wasn't really sure about SK Historical Dramas. BUT NOW?????? I love SK historical dramas IF the main leads are Rowoon or PEB. hahahahhaha.

 

Okay, I know in this forum I am the odd-man (woman) out. I don't know or care to know about other SK actors and actresses. I am deeply sorry.

 

I googled that couple you mentioned. But my deepest apologies. I/we are not moved by this couple. Not in same way I am moved by the RoBin couple. You mentioned about a LIGHT emanating from RoBin couple. We don't feel or see the same LIGHT with that couple you just mentioned.

 

Does that mean I won't watch that Crash Landing On You in the future? Of course not. I will, if I want to be JUST ENTERTAINED and if I am really curious. But lately, for some reason at this point in my life/our lives, I/we want to watch shows that will 1) MOVE ME/US 2) HAVE MEANING or SOME LIFE LESSONS.

 

So, after EAW and TKA. I attempted to watch other SK shows that they said were good. I started to watch: 1) Little Women - stopped after Episode #2  2) Older ones like Bride of Habaek - stopped after Episode #3  3) K-2 - yeah, the first two episodes were interesting. Then I stopped watching. Could not finish that show.

 

The only ones that I could truly finish was 1) Unlocked 2) JUNG_E because these were just 1.5 hour films/movies to finish. hahaha

 

The only one that seems to hold promise to me is Crash Course in Romance because that involves MATH. And I love numbers. hahahaha.

 

In the end. These are my thoughts:

1) My time is precious. So I only waste/consume time on one couple - RoBin couple

2) RoBin couple is enough to keep me busy. Shipping is a time-consuming endeavor hahaha

3) Folks have different tastes and styles in shows. But we seem to ALL have ONE common factor - RoBin.

 

But, I will tell you. I will watch that CLOY if I have the time. Thank you so much for your thoughts!!! Much appreciated.

Pllleeeaaassseeee? No Disney + for PEB? We don't have Disney +. We only have Netflix because it fulfills ALL our national, local and international shows. Please?

 

Plus, that is the reason why we ditched cable. We were paying $110/month and that was back in 2007!!!!!!! hahaha.

But for Netflix, for the price of almost one movie ticket, we can watch as MANY or as FEW shows as we want. We can fast forward if we don't like some scenes. And we can go back or reverse for scenes we want to watch again. And there is a Netflix Library, that we can go to and re-watch over and over and over again. LIKE TKA. hahahaha.

They have also compared with the audience rate of TKA.  As all of  you commented, the sucess of one TV project is not only depended on how many kiss or sex scenes, it´s more depend in each single moment, how you can impact to the viewer.  These days I rewatch some epic scene of TKA and WYW. And you will feel lot of impact moment combining the shooting environment, the ost and the actors expression; in these last most of the effort is come from PEB and how she influence to her ML. Therefore they use to practice and make some adaption, instead of only listen and follow the orders of  PD nim.

 

Agree that PEB also take her time to select a good story. And Rowoon should learn about that

 

Strange that all the CAD promotional posters are not indicated that the  drama is related to romance topic. Maybe there are suprises at the end.

 

My delulu and thought. I always think that first Rowoon was fan of PEB before TKA, he mention he watch DYLB, this drama was broadcast moreless at the same time as YWNK, so in that moment both drama was competing. Again the JTBC DTLB is more permitted the kiss and bed scene, but FL seems to be not suit to Rowoon, finally the chemestry was not so great. In the case of DYLB, eventhout the story is very slow, it impact a lot to the audience with different painful scenes and some romatic kiss.

This is the reason that Rowoon intends approach to PEB in all the single moments, even is not give any chance to other actors to be close to PEB. According one of the interview to the actor who was the bad guy ( uncle of Lee Hwi ) the only way to approach PEB is try to talk with the make up team.  And also there are one picture in IG where this guy want to make a picture with PEB and stay in her side, that inmediately Rowoon ask him to change their position their position. All these signal is make me believe that Rowoon is fully in love with her. The point is we have to wait the moment, that PEB decide to put in first position their relationship in front of her acting carrer. 

 

Yes, people in this forum have mentioned that Rowoon was/is a BINGO even before anyone was/is a BINGO. hahahaha.

 

Yes, DYLB was what they call a "SLOW BURN" show but PEB's acting was phenomenal in that show that she won an award. Rowoon said he watched Hot Stove League (PEB won an award for this show and it was popular in SK) and DYLB. But he said during the W Korea Drawing Interview that he immensely enjoyed DYLB.

 

Yes, every chance Rowoon could get he was always next to PEB. Even in the TKA BTS where they were rehearsing the scene with NYS. Not sure if that was the scene where Rowoon and PEB were fighting over a notebook or the scene wherein NYS protected PEB from the laundry water being throw out. But it seems to be the scene wherein NYS was trying to protect PEB from the laundry water. Because, the BTS wherein all three of them were there and fighting over the notebook was a totally different scenery/frame. Anyway, Rowoon was cleaning his Noona's hat. Rowoon was clearly BOXING OUT NYS. He wasn't even supposed to be in that scene where NYS was protecting LEE Hwi from laundry water? Right? hahaha.

He was always trying to get PEB's attention. It is soooooo funny: Rowoon's actions to get close to and get PEB's attention.

 

IG

Really? Could you please post the picture here of that guy that wanted to take a picture with PEB but Rowoon changed places/positions with him? I would appreciate it very much! Thank you for this!!!

I noticed the shyness too and based on KSW he definitely doesn’t seem shy with those scenes on SWNK so it only tells us one reason why he is shy and has butterflies.  He was even biting his lips after the sunset kiss.  Anyways my delulu acting up again

I remember in the Hanna radio show, I think PEB mentioned she maybe be ready to try a romcom.  I got surprised hearing that and wondered what changed and made her ready

 

To be honest, if we really think we understand KSW, I think that bed scene is something, KSW may be very shy about.  He hasn’t talked about it.  Maybe he doesn’t want to.  I am not sure.
He besties did talk about his experience in BP and how him and the FL were comfortable with each other and trusted each other so they agreed to film that scene.  

I wonder how it works sometimes lol.  I do remember some restaurant posted a picture of KSW eating there and shortly, it was removed so something is definitely happening.  Has other other couples be validated? I am not familiar with dispatch and how good they are to the truth 

Maybe, Penny can help with that question. And where is Cherry? Why isn't she posting??? Help us out Cherry. Where have you been Cherry. You are so helpful, too Cherry!!!  hahahaha.

 

So Penny, where the other couples that Dispatch said they were going to reveal.......... finally revealed? That post was posted on Feb 2023. Have dispatched revealed the other couples yet?

 

Well, if they show confirmed photos that these are the people they say they are. Then it must be the truth. Right? Pictures and vids don't lie (unless very blurry and unwatchable). hehehe.

Hahaha same here I was like why just now??? I’ve watched EAW on 10/2022 as well and I was so clueless that there was TKA ahead of it. Damn!

 

Let our imagination entertain us  They might go to Disneyland, nothing is impossible hahaha who would not want to go to Disneyland with your “special friend”! She’s so adorable, isn’t she? She seemed so innocent yet so feminine, so talented yet so humble. That made her even more beautiful in my (and Rowoon’s) eyes  

Re: tweet about dating news - the owner of that account who retwitted was not surprised at all, sounded like k netz and a lot of people were already suspecting that. And yes, same thoughts, I guess agencies have that power to stop the rumors, as you said “catch-and-kill” the story type. 
 

@Pen G You have to check The Negotion and Crash Landing on You so you’d meet the older version of RoBin  Hyun Bin and Son Yejin LOL. Just a short story about them since we mentioned “dating news” here. At that time (after their 1st drama) they were rumored to be dating but both agencies kept mum about it. Just like Rowoon, Hyun Bin’s personal wish after The Negotiation was to work with SYJ again then came Crash Landing on You! They were spotted in the US doing grocery together but still no confirmation from both sides. Then one day, Dispatch released a photo of them - HB in the van with SJY about to get in the van on her golf attire (maybe they received a “go” signal to do so hahaha) WHAT IF???? (yes I’m manifesting) Another project for our RoBin is on the way??? Even last one (please for heaven sake!) before they hide and not share anything with us   

 

Agree 5,367,149%. 

 

If I was a MAN, I would definitely want to marry PEB.

If I was a WOMAN, I would definitely WANT to BE PEB. hehehhehe. Such a great woman. What an ANGEL.

Yes, I understand the HOW. 1) Body Double 2) Dark - it probably was not Rowoon 3) they probably discussed it off-camera 4) shooting was not as romantic as it came out on TV 4) actors/actresses are protected

 

My question is WHY? Why would he "cross that line" and do or at least imply that he was doing a BED scene?

Especially, if PEB whom he respects, admires, asks advice from and looks up to; has not done a SINGLE BED SCENE in her career. But is very, very successful in her career.

 

Shy About the Bed Scene

Yes, he seems to be shy about the bed scene. He has not talked about it. He probably will in the future, but not now when it is still fresh.

So, if he is shy about it. Why did he do it in the first place? Was he forced to do it? Did his contract state that he was to follow the script no matter what? He respected the PD nim and the scriptwriter, that he felt he needed to please them? Did they think it would result to more viewing hours? Did Rowoon think that if he did not cooperate, he would be blacklisted by the production company, the PD nim and the writer? Was he taking ONE for the team? He is not as big as PEB yet therefore he can NOT be as picky as PEB? Or ALL of the above?

 

Wiz has given me her thoughts. I just wanted to know yours? Thank you for your thoughts

I have seen an enlightened version of the „bed scene“ and I can assure you that no body double has been used :-)

I must admit that unlike some of you here I don‘t have any issues with this scene. It was beautifully done, especially with the use of lightning, and it merely lasted 60 seconds.
It just showed the ultimate bonding of two people that were longing for each other for a long period of time (300 years, according to the script :-)).

In recent „another magazine“ interview KSW stated “I want to appeal to producers and directors – not just as a pretty face but able to show the full spectrum of emotions inside me, to portray the different types of people that exist in the world“. So I agree with your point number 6) about him wanting to tackle roles and dimensions of characters he has not previously done.
And yes, he‘s recently become bolder, which has also been shown by him choosing to portray a gay man in his cameo alongside his friend Ahn Hyo-seop in „A time called you“. 
So I also agree with your statement about his choices being „A sort of Declaration of Independence“.

And by the way, I am sure that also PEB wouldn’t turn down a script just because it contains an intimate scene. If she were convinced that it was important for the character development, then she would surely not basically refuse to do it…

Okay, thank you for your thoughts. Much appreciated.

 

And I guess even if PEB has NOT done bed scenes but has been very successful in her career for 26 years. Rowoon did say: "He is not PEB" in one of his Japan fan meets. So, I would think that even if he respects PEB , her career and her advice. Ultimately, he is the one that choses what he wants to do and the direction his acting career will take.

 

Really? You would think PEB will not say NO to a bed scene if it was needed for her characer? I can't imagine it. But possibly. Maybe, after she gets married. Maybe, she will get bolder and braver. hahaha
