Being a celebrity is more complex than one might actually think. Professionalism, readiness, and confidence are the key to ace any role they are given. Many South Korean stars had to shoot intimate scenes with their co-stars even when they were still minors. Here are some South Korean stars who had to film kissing scenes-not just a peck!-when they were underage.
Sulli
The late singer-actress Sulli had her first on-screen kiss when she was only ten years old in the drama "Banjun."
She was one of the brightest child actresses in the industry, which could be the reason for the in-demand and much anticipated kissing scene.
The following year, the singer-actress turned 11. Sulli shot another kissing scene in "Ballad of Seodong." Despite being a kid, Sulli showed immense passion and deduction for her work.
Kim Yoo Jung
Without a doubt, Kim Yoo Jung is one of the most successful stars in the industry today. The actress began her career as a child star.
When she was 11 years old, she filmed a kissing scene while lying down with her co-star in the series "Road No. 1," which caused an uproar in South Korea and the international Hallyu scene.

At 17, Kim Yoo Jung's roles continued to stir controversy over her passionate on-screen kissing scenes with co-star Park Bo Gum in "Love in the Moonlight."
Yeo Jin Goo
Like Kim Yoo Jung, Yeo Jin Goo is a former child star who became one of the household names in the industry.
In the sitcom "Potato Star," Yeo Jin Goo shot an intense kissing scene with a senior when he was just 17 years old.
But unlike Kim Yoo Jung and Sulli, the actor's first kiss was only a peck on the lips.
Baek Seung Do
Only 12 years old, child star Baek Seung Do filmed a very intimate kissing scene with a 25-year-old actress in the romance drama "Drama City."
The netizens heavily criticized the drama, with many considering it "indecent" and "pedophilia."
However, the production unit of the drama countered the argument using the drama's storyline, which follows the story of an adult trapped in the body of a boy.
