‘The Weird Father’ Kiss Scene Between Jung So Min, Lee Joon Causes Trouble

It seems like the kiss scene between Jung So Min and Lee Joon that took place in KBS 2TV weekend drama, "The Weird Father" is causing quite a ruckus. The scene is currently under review by the Korea Communications Standards Commission.

According to a report published by Allkpop, the KBS 2TV weekend drama, "The Weird Father" episode which aired on June 11 consisted of a scene wherein Byun Min Young (Jung So Min) was kissing Ahn Joong Hee (Lee Joon). The producers thought that it would be a good idea for the scene wherein Byun Min Young can be seen kissing Ahn Joong Hee on the cheek and then on the lips. Ahn Joong Hee ends up late, and a minute later he is seen with kiss marks all over his face. This was supposed to be a part of the story-line that was to follow next. However, it appears like the Korea Communications Standards Commission weren't too comfortable with this scene.

In fact, the report further goes on to suggest that there were many viewers who felt uncomfortable while watching the scene. The viewers apparently complained of the scene as representing sexual harassment. There were many comments that suggested that the two characters were forced to kiss at a workplace. Quite naturally, the viewers went ahead and filed multiple complaints thereby, also questioning the relationship that existed between the two characters. To note, Byun Min Young and Ahn Joong Hee are believed to be step-siblings, which makes things even worse.

Following this, the scene was sent for reviewing to Korea Communications Standards Commission. Bae Kyung Soo CP of "The Weird Father" also offered a clarification stating that while the two characters play step-siblings in the show, they are a real life couple and are not related to each other in any way.
