1. [+927, -5] So they think it's okay because it was a stunt double and not Kim So Hyun?

2. [+728, -5] What kind of stupid clarification is this... they're both human beings and I'm sure the stunt double is a woman too... so Kim So Hyun can't do it but it's perfectly okay for the stunt double? In this freezing weather? Why do you even need a stunt double for a scene where all she's doing is going in the water?? Do these directors realize that stunt doubles are people who feel cold too?...

3. [+683, -3] Does the director not think the stunt double is a human being???

4. [+37, -1] He must think that stunt doubles were born with polar bear skin or something

5. [+26, -0] Statements like this just show the class system in the industry. Unless your one passion in life is acting, please just stay out of the industry or you'll be subjected to sub-human treatment like this unless you ever make it.

6. [+25, -0] Well I hope the stunt double didn't catch a cold

7. [+24, -6] She doesn't have a professional mindset... why would she need a stunt double for that scene?

8. [+22, -0] It's blistering cold outside to the point where it cuts your skin ㅠㅠㅠ I feel so bad for that stunt double...

9. [+19, -1] And who would bear the responsibility if the stunt double had a heart attack underwater?

10. [+19, -7] Disappointed in Kim So Hyun... I thought she was more professional than this. She really couldn't just do the scene on her own?

11. [+17, -0] They really must not consider stunt doubles as worthy human lives. You can tell how this director must treat his supporting roles and stunt doubles with this statement. Was it even necessary to include this scene when the weather's this bad?

12. [+16, -2] His statement just shows that he views stunt doubles as nothing but accessories or props. He's basically saying "our holy actress-nim is safe and sound so don't worry"

13. [+15, -2] Kim So Hyun wore a super thin see through dress in freezing conditions to an award ceremony yesterday so why does she need a stunt double for her own scene?

14. [+14, -1] Whether it's Kim So Hyun or a stunt double woman or man, how could anyone think it's okay to even have an underwater scene in this freezing weather? How can you be a human being and think that asking someone to go underwater wearing nothing but a thin piece of clothing is okay at all???? It's -15 out there right now ㅡㅡ

15. [+13, -1] He's got a rotten mindset... why does it make the scene okay because a stunt double was used ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
