South Korean actress Song Hye-Kyo is one of the most popular names in the Korean entertainment industry who thrives on her prolific filmography. Hye Kyo is the only actress to have a Deasang to her credit and is known for her exemplary screen presence which is evidently visible in her incredible filmography.

Song Hye-Kyo enjoys a massive fan base across the globe owing to her hit movies and shows, including My Brilliant Life, The Grandmaster, A Reason To Live, The Crossing, Camellia and several others. But are you aware that one of Song Hye-Kyo’s films got banned due to sensitive h*t scenes? Scroll down to read more about it.

In 2008, an American film called Fetish starring Song Hye-Kyo was banned from screening because of its h*t scenes. The film portrayed the Descendants of the Sun actress in the character of a Korean girl named Sookhy, who was a member of a pagan cult, possessing the power to curse. Sookhy got married and moved to the US to live with her husband Peter Kim, a Korean-American. However, later she fell in love with her Caucasian neighbor John Waits and ended up killing his wife Julie to live with John.

In the film, Song Hye-Kyo had a number of intimate scenes with Peter Kim and John Waits. She also had a lesbian scene with her neighbour’s wife that actually showed the actress in a different mood, contrary to expectations. However, despite such h*t scenes, Fetish failed miserably and went through a lot of difficulties when released in Korea. Eventually, the film was banned in Korea.

Though the film was stopped from screening, it was a different experience for the South Korean actress. But fans thought that Song Hye-Kyo must stick to her innocent girl image rather than to explore such explicit characters which may take a toll on her career.
