Koreans In Shock At ASTRO Cha Eunwoo’s Tongue Kiss Scene In “A Good Day To Be A Dog”

ASTRO‘s Cha Eunwoo is recently starring in A Good Day To Be A Dog. The K-Drama is about a girl who was born with a family curse if she gets kissed by a man, she instantly turns into a dog. It can only be solved by getting the same man to kiss her in dog form.

While the kiss in episode 8 was more cute than steamy…

International viewers praised the scene and the actors for their dedication to the art. K-Dramas often showcase bland kiss scenes which have been highly criticized by international viewers as “dead fish kisses.” Cha Eunwoo’s kiss scene was a refreshing change for many.

Wonder what Koreans think? Korean netizens are divided on the scene, with some accepting the new standards of kiss scenes in K-Drama, while others were put off by the visible tongues.

• There are tongues in other scenes too, so I think they just continued filming that way. Well, what’s the deal about tongues when they’re already smashing lips?
• I just watched it thinking, “wow, how intense,” and nothing much else.
• What…is this?
• Even if it’s acting, the actress could feel a little uncomfortable… They could film it without tongues.
• I don’t like the use of tongues… It’s so-so from the viewer’s POV.
• Why are people mad? I love it.
• It’s dirty… Did they have to use tongues like that?
• Wow, but Cha Eunwoo’s face is really moving me.
• Wow, hot stuff.

What did you think of the scene?
