The romantic comedy Dynamite kiss has only aired 6 of its 14 episodes, but one particular scene from episode 2 has already gone viral and captured the hearts of countless K-drama fans.
In this much-loved scene, Gong Ji Hyuk (played by Jang Ki Yong) and Go Da Rim (played by Ahn Eun Jin) sit on the beach after Ji Hyuk fiercely defends Da Rim from her inappropriate ex-boyfriend. With a gentle touch, he heals a wound on her hand, wrapping it with his handkerchief. What follows is a tender conversation about their views on love, which effortlessly segues into a scene where Da Rim dances joyfully with light waves caused by bioluminescent plankton.
Every element – the soft light of the sea, Da Rim’s sparkling blue dress, the poetic cinematography, the moving soundtrack and the duo’s electrifying chemistry – comes together in a perfect moment. Ji Hyuk, dressed in a white dress, watches her with a loving gaze, resembling a modern prince fascinated by his Cinderella under a starry sky.
Clips of the scene exploded on social media, especially on platforms like Instagram and TikTok. A single reel, shared by @rojarosebliss, garnered millions of views in just a few hours. Fans from all over the world flooded the comments:
- “Tell me the name of this drama, please! That chemistry is crazy – I have to watch it now!”
- “This is what falling in love looks like.”
- “What kind of fairytale scene is this?”
- “I haven’t watched K-dramas in a while, but this brought me back.”
- “My heart was pounding just looking at his gaze.”
In another popular post by @kdramaswithrn, fans described the scene as “fascinating”, “cinematic”, AND “unforgettable.”
Dynamite kiss tells the story of a fateful meeting between a charismatic CEO and an ordinary woman during a short trip to Jeju Island. After two sweet days, Da Rim disappears due to a family emergency, only to reunite with Ji Hyuk under surprising circumstances: pretending to be a married mother for a job interview, unaware that he is her new boss.
While the drama includes familiar rom-com clichés, its success is largely due to the natural performances and sizzling chemistry of the main and supporting cast, which draws local and international viewers into its whirlwind of love, misunderstandings and touching moments.
