"The director said to go by the script, and the script described the pasta as being steaming hot. Fortunately, Kim Hee Sun unni stood up for me and told the director 'her career is reliant on her face' and let me do the scene after the pasta had cooled down. I thought my jaw was going to snap off because it hurt so badly."

1. [+541, -7] What a weird director. Why would he expect her to get slapped with steaming hot pasta? Does he want her to suffer burns? She's an actress! CG is so advanced these days, any further detail could've been done through CG.

2. [+493, -6] So she got saved from suffering burns thanks to Kim Hee Sun stepping in. Throwing steaming hot pasta at anyone sounds horrible, why would you be crazy enough to think it's okay to throw on an actress's face;; what a foolish director

3. [+457, -10] First the kimchi slap, now the pasta slap... none of it is satisfying for the viewer, I don't know why they include such scenes...

4. [+49, -1] You really need to be at Kim Hee Sun's level to be able to speak up about any unfair treatment in the industry...

5. [+47, -0] The director should get slapped with it first before making his actors do it

6. [+44, -0] Is the director insane? A steaming hot pasta on an actress's face? He expects her to suffer burns for the sake of acting?? If Kim Hee Sun hadn't been there, I'm terrified thinking of what could've happened

7. [+35, -0] I bet the director wouldn't have listened if it wasn't an actor of Kim Hee Sun's level who stepped in. So glad she did.

8. [+30, -1] Why would anyone think it's okay to throw steaming hot pasta on someone's face?

9. [+27, -0] You can just slap someone, why do you have to slap them with kimchi and pasta? Just seems like a ploy to get media attention

10. [+16, -1] The drama's super fun though
