Actress Jeon Yeo Been Films Kiss Scene With Ahn Hyo Seop Amidst Screaming Tourists In Netflix’s “A Time Called You”

In an interview about the Netflix K-Drama A Time Called You, actress Jeon Yeo Been shared some behind-the-scenes stories, including her experience filming a memorable kiss scene.

A Time Called You is a mystery romance drama that tells the story of Jun Hee (played by Jeon Yeo bin), who slips back in time to 1998, where she encounters Si Heon (played by Ahn Hyo Seop), who looks identical to her boyfriend who passed away a year ago. The show is a remake of the popular Taiwanese series Someday or One Day.

In the show, Jeon Yeo Been’s character Jun Hee finds herself in the body of a high school student named Min Joo, who looks identical to her. She effectively portrayed two characters with similar appearances but contrasting personalities and navigated the complex time slip storyline, earning praise from viewers.

During the interview, Jeon Yeo Been discussed various aspects of her role and the production. First, she mentioned that some scenes in the K-Drama were simplified compared to the original webtoon, and certain family scenes were omitted, which she found regrettable.

She also praised her co-stars Ahn Hyo Seop and Kang Hoon, saying that they are both very nice people and that their synergy on set was excellent. She added that the two actors were the “mood-makers” of the set.

When asked about Ahn Hyo Seop looking handsome while playing Si Heon in his 40s, Jeon Yeo Been mentioned his height.

Hyo Seop looks good in whatever he does because he’s tall. He’s handsomely tall.

When asked about a memorable scene, Jeon Yeo Been mentioned that she particularly remembered the scene where the team had to change filming locations spontaneously because of the wind.

In the rooftop scene when Min Joo returns to school, the wind was blowing too much so it was difficult [to film]. So we changed our location to the gymnasium.

She also mentioned the difficulties encountered while shooting a scene on Jeju Island where tourists shouted while watching her film a kissing scene with Ahn Hyo Seop. In order to not be distracted by the cheering, she needed to focus on the sad emotions.

The last place Jun Hee and Si Heon traveled was Jeju Island, which was a fight against time. We had to film it within the given time, but there were so many tourists. When we filmed the kiss scene, people around me shouted, ‘Oh my! Oh my!’ and I really had to concentrate. (Laughing) In the midst of such cheers, I only thought of parting with Si Heon.

Jeon Yeo Been reflected on her career as an actress, expressing a desire to continue working diligently for a long time.

I’m fortunate to be able able to do what I love, but that doesn’t mean every moment is easy. I never take anything for granted and try to do things a little more calmly… I’m so thankful, so I also think to myself, ‘I’m going to try harder, so how should I try?’

The first episode of A Time Called You aired on September 8 on Netflix.
