Korean media reported that, after Yuri's (SNSD) controversial photo taken on the breakwater, the new Disney+ TV series "Red Swan" starred Bi Rain and Kim Ha Neul. continues to be criticized for the same reason.
In episode 7, a female bodyguard of Fine Group climbed onto the breakwater (tetrapod) and took adulterous photos of Oh Wan Soo (Kim Ha Neul) and Seo Do Yoon ( Bi Rain ). After taking photos, she ran up to the wave to hide quickly, avoiding being discovered.
This seems like a simple scene, however, Ten Asia issued many warnings about incidents and accidents related to breakwaters.
This is because a breakwater is a concrete structure that absorbs wave energy to protect the coast from tides and storm surges. It consists of 4 horn-shaped legs, and is most commonly 4 to 5 meters in diameter.
Usually, it is stacked in 1 to 4 layers, so the depth of the gap can reach the height of the 2nd to 3rd floor of an apartment building. If someone hits their arm or leg on a structure while falling, they will suffer broken bones, and if someone hits their head, they can die instantly.
“It would be difficult for a person to climb out of this structure on their own. There are many slippery areas due to water or moss on the bottom of the tetrapod. Due to the nature of the structure, there is nowhere to grab or step on.
You have to wait until someone saves you, but the sound of waves around the breakwater is very loud, making it difficult to ask for help," Han newspaper warned.
Meanwhile, the Korean Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries (MOF) said that up to 462 accidents related to breakwaters have occurred in Korea in the past 6 years, with 65 deaths.
For this reason, the country's Seaport Law has imposed fines of up to 1 million won (18.2 million VND) when people enter some major ports and accident areas.
This is also the reason why the movie "Red Swan" received a lot of criticism. According to the Korean newspaper, although there is only one actress climbing onto the breakwater on screen, it is likely that there were many film crew members standing on the breakwater to film this scene.
“Unexpected accidents always happen. It's time to realize that many artists have even lost their lives because of the dangerous filming environment and the lack of consideration of the production team" - Korean newspaper commented.
Meanwhile, the audience also expressed concern when the cast had to film in potentially dangerous situations. Others cannot help but feel frustrated because up to now, the manufacturer has not yet apologized or responded to the above issue.
This is considered a difficult problem for Disney+ at present when recently released film projects such as "Artificial Meat", "Uncle Samsik"... or most recently "Red Swan" despite being first Big investment but the effect is not as expected.
Bi Rain and Kim Ha Neul 's new work has been criticized as a "mixed pot" with a series of content such as fighting, power struggles, adultery, trivia...
So, despite their efforts, the two Korean stars could not save the movie or the reputation of the broadcasting platform. The audience even said that this was a forgettable project in the careers of Bi Rain and Kim Ha Neul.
