Tale of the Nine-Tailed: Have You Seen These, GB?

@Growing_Beautifully, @agdr03, @Phoenix, @Cleopatra and others,

Maybe I spoke too soon.

Maybe I should watch this kdrama with you after all.

Maybe I would have had a blast writing a kiss analysis of this scene.

🙂

I wonder how many people were involved in filming this. Without counting the actors, at least 10, I should say. There’s the director, assistant director, the director for photography, and his assistant, the gaffer who’s in charge of lighting, the grip who’s in charge of the tripods and cranes for the camera, the sound engineer (especially because we need to hear all the moaning and sighing), and the boom operator who’s holding the mic. There’s the make-up artists for both actors.

Also with this covid, I’m sure the crew were required to wear a mask. The actors might be asked to  spray their faces with some sort of disinfectant to kill the virus, then gargle with mouthwash after the kiss. Temperatures would have to be monitored. There might be a covid-protocol person on set, too.

The thought of what’s involved in filming this scene ruins the passionate kiss for me. Must focus on the kiss alone.

  1. @packmule3 Yes, I have seen these!!! I have made a comment on the other ep.13-14 thread on this bed scene already😛😛
    Haha..your vivid post Covid kissing scenario just about killed all the warm and fuzzy feeling for me. Was imagining them gurgling with mouthwash 🤣🤣🤣

  2. @Packmule3 They can kiss! I really liked the atmosphere of the scene we got to see! LMAO! We got a treat before the Disaster started…

    @GB I won’t let my warm and fuzzy feelings to be killed!

  3. Sorry my bad @Phoenix and not @GB!

  4. @packmule3, this post has me on hysterics
    So much for simulated intimacy. And just hope that the actors didn’t have kimchi breath. The mouthwash probably took care of that because it would be used before and after the scene. Apparently there have been small studies that have not been peer reviewed that say mouthwash kills the virus. Also, hats off to our actors who are literally putting their lives on the line for our entertainment to

  5. @Cleopatra My warm amd fuzzy feelings were replaced by laughter🤣🤣 Had so much fun imagining the behind the scenes of this kiss scene😜
    This is @packmule3’s trademark humor..only she can do a kiss analysis like that..you should go back and check the other kiss analyses we all have done at length over the years🧐🧐🧐
    There was even a memorable hickey analysis 🙈🙈

  6. @Old American Lady..true..I just read a news post which says Covid cases have spiked up in SK in the last few days and the Prime Minister has urged people to avoid public places.

  7. 😂😂 Mouthwash.

    Plus, they have to sanitize their hands before touching each other. And probably use a disinfectant face mist if they’re going to be rubbing faces against each other. 😂😂

    As @Old American Lady said, they’re risking their lives to film entertainment for us.

    Btw, I don’t check the Tale of Nine-Tailed so I’ve no idea what you’re talking about there. I just open the thread and leave y’all alone.

    I okay’ed @Anonymous to join the group because he/she seemed like a good addition.

  8. @Phoenix,

    Yes I have to check! As a newbie here, I have to get familiar with @Packmule3’s trademark Humour! I will catch up though!

    Where is that hickey analysis? I have to find it! LMAO!

  9. I know right, @OldAmericanLady. This COVID gives a whole meaning to “a kiss of death.”

    Anyway, the actors looked good in that kissing scene. They looked “earthy.” I wondered about it because the hero was supposedly a deity and an animal at the same time. Would his divine or bestial side come out? Would he feast on her or devour her? Would he relish or ravage her? 😂😂😂 And so on.

  10. @packmule3 Yes, divinity or bestiality – which side of Lee Yeon will show up in such a situation..interesting thought indeed🤔🤔 I hadnt realized before this scene that Lee Dong Wook had muscles at all, and I suddenly found myself noticing his biceps🧐🧐🧐 Looked very Jerry Yan like to me..was comparing them purely for the sake of analysis 🤓

  11. @Phoenix and @packmule3, Perhaps Lee Yeon would prefer nibbling to wolfing down our heroine. He does comport himself in a gentlemanly manner and is all sartorial splendor. He is literally and figuratively foxy. Given his canine ancestry, one would think he would leave a mark on her to demarcate his territory. Unlike that Imugi snake, Lee Yeon would probably leave the aforementioned hickey as opposed to the unsightly green scales. I am now going in search of the hickey post for the sake of further scientufic discourse andbthebenlightenment worthymof tjis god.

  12. @Old American Lady: That is my favorite post of all time🙌considering how deeply and insightfully we analyzed the hickey here🧐🧐 It should be archived under one of BoD favorite dramas called Love O2O – Xiao Nai’s famous hickey😍😍😍
    @agdr03 hasn’t seen the gifs on this post yet. I’m sure she would be as appreciative of these as I am as she was part of that hickey discussion too😛

  13. Shallow Islanders, Lee Dong Wook is noted for his abs.

    Of course I appreciate him for his acting skills, intelligence, and sensitive nature…right?

  14. Word is kimchi protects against SARS & Covid. I suspect they bathed and ingested kimchi before this scene as a precautionary measure. Just imagine them rubbing spicy, fermented napa all over their bodies. The crew did a good job of not leaving stains on those white sheets 🤣😂🤣

  15. @JohnL @packmule3 you are killing me…with laughter 😂.

  16. @Welmaris Oooh! That post makes my shallow heart so happy😍😍 I had always thought that Ladaw was a chocolate hero softie..had no idea he was hiding such muscles🧐

  17. @nrllee Me too🤣🤣🤣 Gives a whole new meaning to ‘Kiss of death’, as @packmule3 said. Sounds like an ad jingle:
    Eat kimchi and wash your mouth…if you want the Kiss of Love!!!💋❣

    @Cleopatra: Stick around here and ypu will have fun because we not only dissect dramas but also do hilarious discussions sometimes 🤣🤣🤣🤣

    LOLOL Sheesh! It was just an intimate kiss scene to me. Now I don’t know what it is. [The befuddled thinking face… (ര⸏ुര)

  19. Shallow Islanders, I suggest we adopt the following song as our anthem:

    https://open.spotify.com/track/1b16fqWAhRo9r13Q7KXVDp

    And when practical Bitches try to remind me of the reality behind the silver screen, I’m gonna mentally stick my fingers in my ears and sing this song or lalalala.

  20. Yaayyy @Welmaris: Love the song😍😍 As a permanent resident of Shallow Island, I’m fully willing to ignore all BTS reality pointed out by Cynical Islanders and ogle abs instead🤪🤪 I think we even had a shower scene in the first episode to gladden my shallow ❤

  21. @packmule3 and all of us Shallow Islanders, to honor the hard work and dedication of the actors and crew risking their lives to bring us a modicum of happiness during these harrowing times, I say enjoy every nanosecond of the love scenes they have so selflessly given us. We need them badly. they help us to endure. And I was thinking that instead of thinking of these kisses in morbid terms, I would like to now view them as the jaws of life to us all. They are rescuing us from the burning vehicle that is COVID-19 and giving us hope for another day.

  22. Ladies and gentleman, loved the killing of the mood and resurrection of this kiss/bed scene here! 😂🥰 I’ll sing to that @Welmaris! @Old American Lady, hope is my favourite word these days. Thank you! ☺️

    @Phoenix, Shallow Islander Forevermore! 🤣

    Usually I’m the first one to comment because it’s a kiss/bed scene but temperatures of over 40degrees on my and @nrllee’s side of the world made it too hot for me already. Couldn’t handle it! 😂

    I’m late as it is to watching it but I have time now. 😃

  23. Welcome back, girlfriend 🙌 Hope we have a happy ending with a longer kissing scene this week before the curtains fall💕

  24. Girlfriend @Phoenix, I’ll second that! 🙌🏻 We want Yeon to become human and just live a normal life with Jiah.
