Was Han So Hee Unaware Of The Intimate Scene In ‘My Name’? Find Out Here!
On the 20th of October, actress Han So Hee had a video call interview on her hit Netflix series "My Name." In the interview, the actress talked about the bedroom scene with her co-star Ahn Bo Hyun.
"I heard about the scene while we were in the middle of filming. At first, I wondered, 'Will this be okay?' I thought it might distract from the overall storyline and become a distraction for Ji Woo's overall goals. But after discussing it with the writer and director, I interpreted it as a scene where Ji Woo could show a more humane side of herself," Han So Hee revealed.
Due to her statements, the interview later turned into a hot topic online. Thus, 9ato Entertainment, Han So Hee's agency, was forced to drop a statement regarding the scenes of Netflix's "My Name."
As of writing this article, today on the 2nd of November, Han So Hee's agency, 9ato Entertainment, dropped a statement regarding the misunderstanding that was caused by Han So Hee's recent interview on her bedroom scene on Netflix's "My Name."
9ato Entertainment's full statement is as follows:
"Hello. This is 9ato Entertainment.
We want to correct the suspicions that a certain scene from the Netflix series 'My Name' was 'decided on set without prior consent.'
We've concluded that a previous interview from October 20 in which actress Han So Hee stated, 'I heard about the scene while we were in the middle of filming,' could cause some misunderstandings depending on the listener's perspective, so we want to reveal the decision process behind the scene in question to correct the facts.
The scene in question was first discussed in the pre-production stage, and we exchanged conversations about there being a possibility of filming a bedroom scene in order to express Ji Woo's (Han So Hee's) emotional change.
Afterwards, since the script wasn't complete yet, it was discussed that the decision on whether to proceed with filming or not would depend on the character's emotions while filming. Later, it was discussed that the scene could show Ji Woo's humane side and explain Ji Woo's emotional fluctuations in the events that followed, so it was ultimately carried out with consent from the actors and staff. Furthermore, the director and writer discussed and considered in length the ways of expressing the scene.
The phrase, 'I heard about the scene while we were in the middle of filming,' meant that the final decision for the scene in question was made in the middle of filming after discussion and careful consideration, and Han So Hee later explained [in the interview] the director's and writer's concerns and intentions as well as information about her consent.
We inform you that all scenes were carried out after sufficient discussion between the director, writer, production team, and actors.
We wanted to directly address the suspicions because we know how much thought and hard work the production team and peer actors put into the project. In the future, we ask people to refrain from having false assumptions and misunderstandings about this matter. Thank you."
Han So Hee has yet to release another statement to further supplement her agency's announcement.
