There, Kim talked about his "Doctors" character, most unforgettable scenes from the SBS drama, and his plans for the future. He detailed why he chose the SBS drama as his first melodrama in five years since 2011's "A Thousand Days' Promise."

To begin with, Kim stated the range of character he worked on these past few years have generally been more serious or had a darker tone. In the SBS drama, he portrayed the renowned neurosurgeon, Dr. Hong Ji-Hong, who restarts his career as a biology teacher.

"Hong Ji Hong from Doctors is totally different," Star 2 quoted Kim as saying before thousands of fans. "He is very lively, not so serious and very vibrant. Also, the drama itself has very vivid colors. These were what appealed to me when I decided to take on the drama."

The "Love Story in Harvard" actor then shared his most unforgettable scenes from "Doctors." Though the SBS drama has too many memorable scenes, Kim revealed the claw crane machine scenes were the most fun.

"The scenes with the claw arcade machine were the most fun," Kim stressed. "Park Shin Hye kept making fun of me: 'Why are you turning so red?'"

The 12th episode of "Doctors," which aired on July 26, saw the romantic lip-locking scene between Hong Ji-Hong and Yoo Hye-Jung (Park) that took place on the claw machine. The said episode garnered a national TV rating of 21.1 percent.

Given the Hallyu star will celebrate the 20th anniversary of his showbiz career, Kim revealed some of his plans for the future. For the second half of his career, he hopes his passion and love towards acting will grow stronger.

"What I really desire is to work on a touching project like Roberto Benigni's 'Life Is Beautiful' (1997)," Kim added. "That movie was a major influence in my acting life. I must have watched it 10 times already. I hope to be able to produce that kind of show one day."
