SNSD's Jessica received both praise and criticism for her acting skill. In the tenth episode, Kang Jong Hee (Jessica) undergoes a severe seizure after she finds her cat brutally killed. She starts shaking violently and shouting nonsensically, and a heartbroken Mu Yeol (Lee Dong Wook) tries to calm her down by holding on her comforting her.
The scene revealed a completely different Jong Hee than the bright and cheerful girl viewers were introuced to in previous episodes. While she didn't receive much criticism when she protrayed the happy-go-lucky Jong Hee,
Jessica received mixied responses from fans for her 'seizure act.'
Some commented on her awkward expressions and lacking acting skill, stating, 'You call this seizure? I would't have known had they not told us,' 'It must be hard for her because she joined the drama later, but she still should have studied her character and craft a bit more,' 'She's simply trying to act prett,' and more.
Others defended the singer, 'She's improving every day. I can't wait to see more of her,' 'As an idol. she's definitely doing a great job,' and 'I was drawn into her emotions during her seizure scene.'
