SEOUL: Actor Ji Chang-wook has opened up about his hesitation over taking on his first-ever sex scene in Netflix's period drama The Scandal, admitting he used to wonder if he could handle such a role.
"I thought about it several times," Ji said during a recent interview.
"I wondered if I could actually do a sex scene. And if I did, what kind of project would it need to be? What would be my reason for doing it?"
The 39-year-old actor eventually took on the challenge to play Cho Won, a playboy caught in a web of complex relationships and heavy emotions.
He explained that playing Cho Won in The Scandal felt like the right choice, adding that working with director Jung Ji-woo gave him the confidence to go for it.
