In the show, Lee Min Ho and Park Shin Hye play high-school students, and their teenage love story was lauded by many.

Lee Min Ho said, “Since the kiss was the culmination of all the events and emotions leading up to it, there was no other alternative than to do it for real. I felt sorry that Park Shin Hye wasn’t told beforehand. Usually, female actresses are accommodated to a certain extent. So I think Park Shin Hye was caught off-guard by how it played out,” per Soompi.
The Doctors star Park Shin Hye also revealed that she grabbed Min Ho’s clothes as she was caught off-guard with the kiss. She said, “I was really surprised. While we were shooting the scene, I grabbed Lee Min Ho’s clothes. That’s because I was so surprised, and you can see it in the shot, too. We were shooting the scene for the first time, and the director said, ‘This time, you’re going to really kiss,’ at which I’m just standing in a daze, and then we did it. In the notes, it says ‘grabs and pulls her chin towards him,’ and when he actually grabbed my chin and pulled me in, it surprised me.”

The actress also mentioned how she did not have much experience of intimacy in K-dramas and the kiss scene was something new for her. She was glad the director took only one shot.
