Apink revealed amusing anecdotes regarding kiss scenes. Recently, in a special video titled 'Apink COMEBACK' released on the YouTube channel 'Cheers Brother, Shin Dong-yup', the members shared their recent updates. Apink stated, 'The atmosphere of music programs has changed significantly from before,' and added, 'In the past, there was a natural connection between groups within the broadcasting station, but now it’s a challenge craze.' They continued, 'We filmed about 70 challenges this time. It was strange to watch.' They also reminisced about their early debut days. The members mentioned, 'When we were rookies, we didn’t have mobile phones and received notes in the waiting room. We even received them on the plane, and sometimes they were communicated through staff,' recalling the analog fan culture. Among this, the youngest member, Oh Hayoung, made a bombshell statement that drew laughter. She referred to the kiss scene between Jung Eun-ji and Seo In-guk in a past drama, saying, 'I cried thinking if that kind of scene would be okay to broadcast.' She continued, 'Even though they were seniors we shouldn’t touch, I was so surprised and cried. I was 17 at the time, so I couldn’t think about broadcasting. I thought kissing meant getting married.' This caused a burst of laughter. The other members were surprised, saying, 'Hayoung is now at the age to do kiss scenes too,' and Park Chorong joked, 'Didn’t she say it was her time to do it?' Hayoung recalled her experience in the play 'Romeo and Juliet,' saying, 'The male lead had kiss scenes 15 times. At first, I asked the co-actor, 'Is it okay to do this with a senior?'' This also drew laughter. She added, 'Later, I learned that this was acting and work. So now I tell them to do it when I’m not there,' causing another round of laughter. The members joked, 'Hayoung looks for such scenes too much,' and 'She doesn’t even watch the important works till the end,' while Hayoung accepted it with laughter. The conversation flowed from the cultural differences felt in music programs to their innocent debut days, and continued with real talk only the members could have, shining a light on Apink's strong bond.
