The most recent episode caused quite a sensation by featuring a nude scene in which Kim Ha Neul's naked body was mosaiced. Kim Do Jin (played by Jang Dong Gun) listens to a recording of Seo Yi Soo's voice on his recorder. Listening to her talking to herself in the bathroom, Do Jin begins to imagine what she looks like in the bathroom.
The nude scene, which shows Seo Yi Soo changing after her bath, is shown as a part of Kim Do Jin's fantasizing; nevertheless, the censored body surprised viewers.
