…K-Drama fans slammed the production team for “gatekeeping” such romantic moments.
Some questioned why the scenes were shot but not used…
- “Wow… F*ck, these are so good…”
- “Yikes. To think that we didn’t get to see these? Even after making them this good?”
- “How beautiful. Their smiles after the kisses make my heart race, too.”
- “WTF… These are so good and so beautiful that they make me even more angry. Why couldn’t these go in the epilogues?”
- “Why gatekeep these… And why are the ‘full versions’ still edited and cut short? WHY???”
- “I can’t believe they didn’t use any of these.”
…while others demanded the fullest, completely uncut scenes—claiming that even the special episode versions were still edited.
