Of course, an actual relationship doesn’t come with out its bumps within the street, and a fancy being pregnant scare tangles up the heartstrings of Kitty and Min Ho in a while within the season, main them to interrupt up as a result of they will’t see eye to eye over what occurs.
“The breakup scene was honestly one of our most intense scenes that we’ve ever really shot together, and one of the most intense scenes, emotionally, that our characters have ever really experienced on the show in general,” Cathcart, who calls it a favourite scene, says. “I remember that day was also super intense for us, just as actors. We were so locked in with headphones on in between takes. We want[ed] to both exist in our worlds and figure this out and really treat this carefully.”
Eunice’s (Han-Bi Ryu) being pregnant scare mixed with Jiwon’s (Hojo Shin) optimistic being pregnant take a look at precipitated an enormous rift between Min Ho and Kitty when it wasn’t clearly communicated that Eunice had slept with Dae (Minyeong Choi) and never Min Ho in Paris on her summer season tour opening for Min Ho’s older brother.

Enough, I’m done,’ and then he slowly tells himself that I realize it’s nothing [that] I’ve done. It’s about it’s all [Kitty]. [She] just [doesn’t] have any trust in me.’ He sort of breaks it down himself, [and] it is a little heartbreaking to see that moment for him.”

For Min Ho, the dealbreaker is that Kitty doesn’t belief him and thinks that he may very well be the child’s father.
“It’s just heartbreaking for both characters, really. It was a really sensitive scene, but I think we did it well, right, Anna? Also, as a person, relating to him, I think I do that as well, where I try to analyze the situation before coming to a conclusion,” Lee provides. “It doesn’t mean it’s always a right conclusion, but I feel like that’s probably the part where I can relate to [him] most.”
Cathcart equally empathizes with each side.
“I do understand both their perspectives. I think Kitty has never been so scared to lose something, so that’s led her to be a lot more doubtful and insecure and overthink everything, but at the same time, I completely see why Min Ho’s so upset,” she says. “I think in my in my own life, it would hurt me so much to know that my person didn’t trust me and didn’t think the best of me, but rather expected the worst. I think that that’s a very real, hurtful moment. I totally felt for Mino in that moment, but it was a really fun scene to shoot.”
