Lee Min-ho and Gong Hyo-jin Share Insights on Filming Kisses in “When the Stars Gossip”
In a recent episode of a YouTube show, acclaimed actors Lee Min-ho and Gong Hyo-jin joined forces to promote their latest K-drama, “When the Stars Gossip” (formerly titled “Ask the Stars”). The light-hearted banter and behind-the-scenes revelations provided fans with a delightful glimpse into their working relationship.
Plot Overview and Character Dynamics
In “When the Stars Gossip,” Lee Min-ho portrays Gong Ryong, a skilled obstetrician and a potential son-in-law for the prominent chaebol family MZ. The character embarks on a unique adventure, culminating in a mission that requires him to pay a hefty fee for a tourist trip to a space station. There, he encounters Eve Kim, played by Gong Hyo-jin, a scientist whose expertise becomes pivotal in the story.
The Reality Behind the Romantic Scenes
Since a space station setting is integral to the plot, the drama’s kiss scenes presented unique challenges. Lee Min-ho and Gong Hyo-jin candidly shared their experiences during filming, revealing that creating the illusion of weightlessness was far from romantic in reality.
Gong Hyo-jin elaborated on the unconventional methods used to simulate the space environment, mentioning the involvement of stunt performers who supported them in mid-air during these intimate moments.
“Even during kiss scenes, they were holding us from behind,” Gong Hyo-jin remarked, playfully illustrating the support with her hands.
Lee Min-ho added to the hilarity by explaining that the stunt team would push them together to minimize the space between them as they kissed. Gong Hyo-jin humorously reflected on moments when she looked down during a kiss to see the crew members, who were effectively holding the two actors in place.

This candid approach illustrates how the passionate portrayals in “When the Stars Gossip” are not as romantic behind the scenes as they may appear on screen.
Personal Revelations
In addition to their insights on filming, Gong Hyo-jin shared her thoughts on a “disappointing” marriage proposal from her husband, Kevin Oh. Meanwhile, Lee Min-ho took the opportunity to express his perspective on marriage and his ideal partner, offering fans a deeper understanding of their personalities beyond their on-screen roles.
