Viewers have pointed out the lack of safety precautions taken in the filming of SBS's 'Incarnation of Money' as well as the wrong message it sends.  

On the 13th episode of the drama that aired on October 5, Gong Hyo Jin rides on the back of a motorcycle in one scene - but she does not wear a helmet.

Regarding this, a rep stated on October 6, "During production, we should have made sure she was wearing her helmet, but we failed to do so.  We will pay more heed from now on."

The top comments to the official statement read, "Although I do wonder whether people could be going too far when it's just a drama, it is on a public network that anyone could watch.. so I do think it's a given that people would criticize this," "In Korea, when doctors wear manicures and their hair blows in the wind... people always compliment it and shield it as long as the drama is fun... shivers," and, "While watching... I thought... that she did not wear a helmet... and it'd become a problem..."

What do you make of it?
