South Korean actor, Kim Woo Bin, who currently stars on KBS 2TV's "Uncontrollably Fond" alongside Bae Suzy, recently spilled the beans on his personal relationship with friends and how he prefers to spend time with them.
The 27-year-old actor apparently caught the attention of many, as he flaunted his mature and manly looks in the August issue of fashion magazine, Elle Korea, according to Soompi. In an accompanying interview, "The Heirs" star opened up about his surprisingly close relationship with actors Song Joong-Ki, Jo In-Sung, Lee Kwang-Soo and Cha Tae-Hyun.
"Having some drinks with friends somewhere quiet is the best," Kim told the fashion magazine, adding he favors soju over wine. "There is a big dining table at Jo In Sung's house which serves as [our group's] hideout, and we just have tea and talk."
Kim added that they turn out to be each other's mentor, stressing that they share advice to one another when going through hard times. When there is time, Kim calls anyone from the group to meet to ask some tips on how he should portray his character in a given scenario.
Kim, who came to prominence after starring in KBS 2TV's "School 2013," admitted that his family had a big influence on him on how he value other people. He said that he is the type of individual who always say "I love you" to his parents and other people, whether they are men or women.
Currently, Kim stars as a top actor-singer, Shin Joon-Young, in KBS 2TV "Uncontrollably Fond." The 20-episode pre-produced drama's ratings have been trending downward since it bowed on July 6.
One reason behind the ratings drop could have been competing from Lee Jong Suk and Han Hyo-Joo's fantasy drama "W - Two Worlds" on MBC. Both dramas currently airs during Wednesdays & Thursdays 10:00 PM (KST) time slot.
On Aug. 1, Kim posted a message on his fan café under the name Shin Joon-Young, expressing concern about fans who were disappointed with "Uncontrollably Fond," according to local news website News Nate. He also took the opportunity to thank his fans for the love and support in spite of his shortcomings.
