South Korean actor Kang Ki Young recently shared his thoughts on working with Lee Jong Suk and Han Hyo Joo in MBC's recently concluded "W - Two Worlds." In the hit fantasy drama, the 33-year-old star portrayed Kang Seok-Beom.

Kang, whose screen time was decreased in the second half of the drama, said he is not bothered by the lack of screen time given to his character. He added that he was happy to be part of a cast, which includes some of the A-list stars in the entertainment industry.

"It was alright because the work came out well," Kang told Soompi when questioned about his minimal appearance in the drama. "It was great to be able to be a part of the project. I trusted in the director."

Although he just filmed two scenes with the "Pinocchio" actor, Kang could apparently tell that the former has a lot of aegyo. The said term refers to a cute display of affection expressed through a baby voice, facial expressions and gestures.

"When we met, he called me 'Hyung' and say 'You're here!' as he hugged me," Kang revealed, adding that it was hard to get used to it at first. "Everyone, including the writer and director liked that side of him."

Despite the fact that Kang had the privilege of working with the "Doctor Stanger" star, he stressed that his on-screen chemistry with Han was remarkable and fantastic. The "Come Back, Mister" actor called Han a superstar, revealing that it was easy to work with her since she makes everything comfortable.

Helmed by Jung Dae-Yoon, "W - Two Worlds" aired its finale episode on Sept. 14, with a recorded 10.9 percent ratings in the Seoul National Capital Area. Right after its successful run, screenwriter Song Jae Jung revealed the significance of the drama's title.

To begin with, "W" stands for "who" and "why," as it is the two key questions Kang Chul (Lee) is trying to answer after his family was suddenly killed, The Jakarta Post has learned. From Dr. Oh Yeon Joo's (Han) perspective, it signifies a "Wonder World," as the heroine unexpectedly entered the conflicted webtoon universe, which her father (Kim Eui-Sung) created.
