Han So Hee's agency clarifies 'My Name' bed scene controversy, only raises more red flags

Article: Han So Hee reps clarify 'My Name' bed scene filming "Consent was obtained prior to filming"

Source: Insight via Instagram

"The scene in question was first discussed during the pre-production stage. We talked about how there was a possibility of a bed scene to express Jiwoo's change in emotions. The script wasn't finalized at the time so we talked about how we would decide whether or not to film the bed scene depending on how the character's emotions were developed throughout the series. [...] Ultimately, the scene received consent from the actor and the producers. What she meant by 'I found out about the scene in the middle of filming' was that the scene was finalized mid-filming after prior discussion of whether to include it or not."

1. [+206] So all they basically told her was that there may or may not be a bed scene... the script wasn't finalized at the time so she wasn't aware of the details of it. That's still wrong. Prior to signing the contract, she should've been given the full extent of what the bed scene entails and how much skin exposure and skinship will be involved.

2. [+188] Wow, seems like the director pressured them into putting out another statement now that the controversy's getting bigger 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮

3. [+171] What does this mean? Did this conversation only take place between the director and her agency or what?

4. [+122] That doesn't sound like consent. That sounds like they just informed her. 

5. [+52] If they just informed her in the middle of filming, it puts her in a difficult situation to turn down the scene if she doesn't want to do it. All of this should've been talked about beforehand. 

6. [+47] I'll always love and support you, So Hee unni ❤️

7. [+35] It's unfair to just set up a bed scene and tell her like "Oh yeah, we have a bed scene today, that's fine with you, right?" What kind of assh*le behavior is that?

8. [+31] The bed scene did feel random

9. [+5] So they told her there "might" be a bed scene ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ... which also means there "might not" be one either ㅋㅋㅋㅋ.. They should've decided whether there will or will not be one before asking for her consent ㅡ.ㅡ

10. [+3] If the bed scene was added mid-filming, it makes it harder for the actor to turn it down if she doesn't want to ㅡㅡ who do these guys think they are?
