Here Is Actor Namkoong Min’s Weirdest Shower Scene That Shattered All K-Drama Cliches

K-Drama lovers know, when they see male leads strip and step into the bathroom, that they are about to be hit with one of the most cliche scenes of all time: The furious shower. These typical K-Drama shower scenes are often served with 1. an overly emotional character, 2. a pristine luxury shower stall, and 3. a lot of hot steam coming from a hot bod. Here’s vocalist-turned-actor Lee Seung Gi’s most recent shower scene from Vagabond for example. Emotional, check. Shower stall, check. Hot steam and hot bod, double check.

… and though this squeaky-clean visual was nothing Namkoong Min had imagined…

… K-Drama viewers adored the scene for its “hyper-realism”. Many a Manager Kims around the nation deeply related to this most humbling recreation of their average showers at home!
