Korea’s little sister, Moon Geun-young also experienced a big accident during shooting Baram ui Hwawon (The Painter of Winds) episode 5, Oct. 8th. 2008.

Baram ui Hwawon is a historical drama that tries to show two of the most famous painters, Kim Hong-do and Shin Yoon-bok, in 1750s, Josun era.  Geun-young took the Shin Yoon-bok’s role although he is not a woman.  She had to disguise as a man and act like one but that is not true as far as real history concerns.  There are many people still think that he might be a woman but it doesn’t look that way, I think.  Just think as the drama producer wanted to make something more interesting than plain historical facts.

Geun-young fell through 3m down the well while shooting the scene.  She wore the wire but it was loosened and fell straight into the well.  It was a really dangerous moment for her but managed it well and got the minor injury on her feet and ankles because she fell on a rock and slipped.  She was moved to a hospital and got X-rayed right after the incident but couldn’t find anything serious on her legs.

Park Shin-yang starred as the Kim Hong-do role and went though a difficult day himself.  He had to piggyback the injured Geun-young and run and fall many times because of the many rocks.  He was lucky to not get hurt but I think it should be a serious matter that all the drama and film makers need to think about actors and actresses safety.  Fans wouldn’t want their stars get hurt especially under the poor quality of working environment such as at the shooting sets or on the road.
