MBC’s “The Red Sleeve” has shared a look behind the scenes of Episode 15!
“The Red Sleeve” is a historical drama about the imperial romance between emperor Yi San (played by 2PM’s Lee Junho) and the strong-willed court lady Seong Deok Im (played by Lee Se Young).
The clip starts with a disappointed Junho as he expresses sadness that Lee Se Young won’t look at him because she’s already so immersed into her character. Later, the two show off their chemistry and close relationship as they play along with each other’s jokes.
As they brainstorm ideas and rehearse the next scene, the director asks the duo, “Should we try at least touching the coat string?” They readily agree and try it out as the director adds, “Honestly, if you move backwards, it’ll come untied.” Junho agrees, telling Lee Se Young, “You can’t move forwards or backwards.” After they rehearse the scene, the director worriedly asks about the drama’s age rating, “This is okay for 15+, right?” and the actors reassure her that it’s fine.
On another night, the cast and crew film outside for the scene where Yi San sees that Deok Im has returned. After seeing the King so close to Hwa Bin, Lee Se Young makes everyone laugh as she jokes, “Please give me poisonous medicine,” before adding, “I’m so, so angry.”
Next, Lee Se Young films with Yi Seo for the scene where Hwa Bin hits Deok Im on the back of the legs with a rod. Although the rod is specially made out of soft materials, Lee Se Young adorably expresses fear while everyone else on set giggles that Yi Seo is practicing by hitting a cushion. After the two diligently finish the scene, Yi Seo immediately apologizes while Lee Se Young reassures her that it didn’t hurt at all.
The end of the clip features other snippets from set, such as the actors cheering each other on, singing, doing each other’s nails, and Junho teaching Lee Se Young a dance.
