The Beauty Inside: Obligatory Shower Scenes

I’m sorry to interrupt my marathon posting on 100 Days My Prince. But I must comment on this shower scene in Episode 2 before I forget about it. There was also another shower scene in Episode 3 IIRC.


This was not hot. It wasn’t even cool.

Really, I wish scriptwriters would stop doing this. Not because I’m prude (hey, at my age?! My motto is “Use it or lose it.”) but because it sends the wrong message. After all that filth in the entertainment industry that the metoo movement has exposed, shower scenes like this are an anachronism.

Besides, when I watched that scene, it looked to me like a tepid shower scene involving a rather skinny and hairless-chest guy. (Sorry, Lee MinKi.) It didn’t elevate my temperature one degree. In my humblest opinion ever, any steamy shower scene must include me and my sexagenarian bitch bod.

lol. Minus 60 points if you had to look up that word in the dictionary!

  1. Haha…yes my thoughts exactly about gratuitous shower scenes or kiss scenes or bed scenes – fan service irks me no end – my pet peeve. Got me in trouble for voicing in another forum when one shower scene was posted a total of 3 times in a page by fan girls… err…how was it even part of the plot? Everyone showers or at least I hope so? Some less than others I guess? #metoo (no to fan service)

  2. Shower scenes are one of my pet peeves. I blogged about it.

    To me, they indicate what the director and writer think about the acting ability of their actor. If the actor is scripted to do a shower scene in the first two episodes, then they see him as an eye candy or a lure to attract viewers and the ratings. Never mind his acting chops or his stage presence or his dramatic performance. Never mind the flow of the script and the other scenes to film which would develop the narrative and explain the characters. He should just strip and get into the shower! Pronto!

    As for this girls who seal-clap at this spectacle….I say, fine! Go ahead.

    But please I hope they’re filling in their brain with something more than a minute of salivating and ogling at the male body. If they were my daughters, I would send them to Florence for the summer to look at the human body as sculpted and painted by the great masters. Ha! I doubt they would be titillated again by a naked torso of an idol after they’d gazed at and studied Michaelangelo’s David. hahaha.

    The more these girls indulge in this silly “spazzing” over useless shower scenes, the more airheads they look to me. 😀
