The released footage begins with Woo Seul Gi enjoying a bubble bath.
Yoo Jae then enters the dimly lit bathroom, removes her robe, and joins her in the tub.
Woo Seul Gi is visibly startled by Yoo Jaes unexpected bold move.
Yoo Jae asks, Youve never done this before, have you?
her voice tinged with mystery, causing Woo Seul Gi to freeze.
Yoo Jae then smiles playfully and clarifies, I mean taking a bath with a friend.
However, Woo Seul Gi seems even more flustered, as if she had misinterpreted the question.
Blushing, Woo Seul Gi hurriedly responds, It must be the hot water…
I feel warm, thats all.
Yoo Jae, pushing further, teasingly asks, You werent thinking anything weird, were you?
as she gently caresses Woo Seul Gis lips with her fingers.
Yoo Jae then slowly moves closer and kisses Woo Seul Gi.
The intense background music amplifies the tension, drawing viewers into the characters emotional journeys.
So I had no concerns about performing it.
I felt that the scene was essential in explaining the relationship between the two characters.
Chung Soo Bin also commented, This drama feels like something never seen before in Korea.
The script breaks away from conventional drama formulas.
Director Kim Tae Hee revealed, I accepted the offer almost immediately.
Meanwhile, ‘Friendly Rivalry’ is set to premiere on February 10 via U+tv and U+Mobile TV.
