“Habitual Liar” — Actress Han So Hee’s Past Misleading Comments Brought Back Into Spotlight
Han So Hee once starred in My Name, where she filmed a steamy sex scene with actor Ahn Bo Hyun. After the show aired, she claimed that she only found out about the scene’s inclusion during filming itself.
I only knew that there would be a bed scene during filming. At first, of course, I was doubtful if it would be okay. I wondered if it would hinder Jiwoo’s goal of revenge. However, I interpreted it as the first time she accepted human emotions and the only time Jiwoo was a human. Rather than love and affection taking flight, it was more of a moment where she became human for the first time and it was a device that made her want to live like a human. I didn’t think of it as a scene where her values collapsed.

Later on, due to the immense criticism that the director faced due to her comments, her agency had to clarify what she meant.
We would like to clarify the suspicions that the sex scene was decided on the spot without any prior consent during Netflix series My Name.
We believe that there may be some misunderstandings depending on the interpretation of Han So Hee’s words “I found out during filming” that she shared in an interview on October 20. Therefore, in order to share the facts, we would like to inform you of the decision-making process for this scene.
The scene was first discussed during the pre-production stage, and opinions were exchanged that there may be the possibility of a bed scene to show the emotional change of Yoon Jiwoo. As a result, the script was not completed at tat time, so it was discussed that the filming would be determined based on the character’s emotional path, and a scene later showed the human side of Yoon Jiwoo. After discussing Yoon Jiwoo’s course of emotions and how the scene could amplify the character’s emotions, we proceeded with the bed scene with the consent of both Han So Hee and the production team. The director and writers also had a lot of discussions about how to show the scene.
