Recently, Byeon Woo-seok appeared on the tvN variety show You Quiz on the Block. During one particular moment, he was asked to describe his bond with his co-star. For this, he had nothing but good things to say about her. He revealed how genuine and caring she is through her actions, even behind the screen.
"Without Hye-Yoon, I wouldn’t have been able to portray Sun-jae’s emotions as well as I did. The emotions Kim Hye-Yoon conveyed on set felt genuine, which helped me express myself better."
He further mentioned that, on set, when he would get exhausted from the shooting schedule, everyone would start resting him by calling him a "weakling." However, it was Hye-yoon who would bring various snacks and jellies for him to regain his energy.
He also sent a personalized video message to her on the show, saying:
"Hye-Yoon-ah, I learned a lot from you, especially from your attitude on set and the energy you gave me. Thanks to you, I was able to portray Sun-jae well. If you ever want to eat something delicious, just let me know. I’ll treat you anytime. Thank you so much.”
