A surprising fact about Song Hye Kyo and Jang Ki Yong’s kiss scene in “Now, We Are Breaking Up”

How long do you think Song Hye Kyo and Jang Ki Yong’s passionate kiss in Now, We Are Breaking Up was filmed?

After the first 4 episodes of Now, We Are Breaking Up, Song Hye Kyo‘s acting has received mixed reactions because many viewers claim that her acting was monotonous and no different from previous dramas. However, the chemistry between Song Hye Kyo and younger male co-star Jang Ki Yong gets a positive response. Although it’s only been 4 episodes, there are already a bed scene and 3 kissing scenes between the main couple, in which the kiss at Ha Young Eun’s house (Song Hye Kyo) in episode 3 is the most noticed.

This is a nearly one-minute long kissing scene with two consecutive kisses when the two leads want to be with each other but are bound by psychological barriers. This defiant and passionate kiss has received much praise from the audience because it is filmed in a realistic and visually pleasing way. Unexpectedly, although this kiss scene had different camera angles when it was broadcast, it was only filmed once. 

While shooting this kiss, the two actors had to move a lot, but the scene was not interrupted. Song Hye Kyo and Jang Ki Yong must have been extremely focused and well-prepared before the cameras rolled. As expected of professional actors, especially an A-lister like Song Hye Kyo. 

Now, We Are Breaking Up airs every Friday and Saturday on SBS.
