Cha Joo Young said her father was so upset after seeing her nude scenes, he left the house.
Cha Joo Young revealed in an interview that she wasn't really nude in certain scenes. She wore coverings over her breasts while filming the scenes and then fake larger breasts were added by CG during post production. Joo Young said they had to do that because her character of Choi Hye Jung had a breast augmentation procedure in the story, so they needed to make her breasts look much bigger. She admitted this because sites posting the nude scene kept stating it was actually her breasts.
Cha Joo Young said that in order to achieve a more voluptuous figure for her role as flight attendant Choi Hye Jeong, she ate her heart out and gained around 6kg.
