Jan 29, 2019

“The Last Empress” dropped a behind-the-scenes clip of the cast being playful with each other!

In the latest making video, Jang Na Ra, Choi Jin Hyuk, Shin Sung Rok, and Shin Eun Kyung are in the middle of filming the scene where Jang Na Ra and Shin Sung Rok defend each other from Shin Eun Kyung. Jang Na Ra, Shin Sung Rok, and Choi Jin Hyuk converse good-naturedly while waiting for the filming to start. Shin Eun Kyung cheerfully joins the team as she calls out, “Hi! Mom is here!” Jang Na Ra points to Choi Jin Hyuk and tells her, “He’s happy I’m about to get hit.” Then Choi Jin Hyuk jokes, “Please do it well,” making everyone burst into laughter.

During rehearsal, Shin Sung Rok says his lines in an overly sweet manner, and Jang Na Ra grimaces in a joking way. Meanwhile, Shin Eun Kyung and Choi Jin Hyuk are quietly laughing at them in the corner. Then Shin Eun Kyung appears and pretends to slap Jang Na Ra in the face. Shin Sung Rok starts to say his lines when he starts laughing at Choi Jin Hyuk’s fiery glare and points out, “He’s really mad.”

The next scene to be filmed is the one where Jang Na Ra does martial arts. When she flips a stunt member onto his back, she becomes pleasantly surprised. With practice, Jang Na Ra is easily able to master her martial arts skills. She also rehearses the scene with Choi Jin Hyuk, and she is able to smoothly flip him onto his back as well.

All four actors come together again to film the scene where Shin Eun Kyung becomes flustered that Jang Na Ra and Choi Jin Hyuk didn’t die in her scheme. Despite the fact that Shin Eun Kyung is the greatest villain in the drama, the three actors can’t help but admire her cute acting. Choi Jin Hyuk comments that she’s adorable while Shin Sung Rok starts imitating her behavior as the wicked yet silly queen.

In a bonus clip at the end, Jang Na Ra loses her earring, and Shin Sung Rok starts searching for it, just like how his character searched for the couple bracelet in the drama. The earring was eventually found in her hair, and Shin Sung Rok imitates the scene where he found the couple bracelet by raising his fist in the air and excitedly crying out, “I found it!” Jang Na Ra laughs and says, “You really found it this time.”
