K-Dramas Push Limits with Bold Content From ‘Buried Hearts' to ‘The Queen Who Crowns’



TV dramas are getting wild.

SBS 'Treasure Island', which premiered on the 21st, showed the intense kiss scene and bed scene of Park Hyung-sik and Hong Hwa-yeon. The two, who had a secret company relationship, had a strong exchange mentally and physically, but Hong Hwa-yeon betrayed Park Hyung-sik and Park Hyung-sik turned black. As a result, the viewership of the first broadcast was 6.1 percent (Nilson Korea, national standard). In other words, it has succeeded in attracting strong attention with its 19th gold start.

The tvN X TVing original 'Wonkyung', which ended on the 11th, has been talked about with an unconventional 19th-grade description. From the beginning of the play, Cha Joo-young, who played the role of Queen Won-kyung, was exposed to the chest, and the scene of sleeping was repeated, sparking controversy.




In particular, the production team's excessive progression of the 19th grade was a problem. There was no specific explanation for the level of exposure in the script, and actors recognized the 19 gold code at the conti stage before filming. The shooting took place in clothes, but the production team dressed the actors' exposure with CG and did not accept the agency's request for editing. The production team explained that each actor consulted on the level of exposure, but Lee Hyun-wook, who starred in the drama, said, `I was surprised and distressed when I watched the show. I think more communication was needed with the production team in that regard. I thought there might be some people who feel uncomfortable about that being highlighted", he confessed.

tvN 'Chunhwa Love Story' is a work based on a genre painting, Chunhwa, that contains sexual activity between a man and a woman. In response, Han Seung-yeon, Kim Taek, Lim Hwa-young, and Son Woo-hyun's bed scenes were released from the beginning.

The studio X+U drama 'Goodwill Competition' shocked Lee Hye-ri by showing her kissing Jung Soo-bin in the bathtub.

tvN 'Ask the Stars' was controversial with Lee Min-ho and Gong Hyo-jin's 'Universe Bed scene'.

As such, dramas in which the elements '19 Geum', which were considered taboo in the past, are openly inserted are coming out one after another. The bed scene is certainly an important device that can express the strong emotions and romance of the main characters. However, special attention should be paid to the expression of the level when exposure is going in. This is because even viewers may feel uncomfortable with the improbable 19th grade exposure. Only 19 gold, which is essential, can gain persuasive power, not just exposure for a simple topic.
