On January 11, Nam Joo Hyuk sat down for an interview and talked about the MBC Wednesday-Thursday drama â€œWeightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo.â€

The actor talked about how the drama became popular for making viewers feel vicariously satisfied [through all the heart fluttering scenes], saying, â€œAfter seeing those kinds of reactions on the Internet, we started thinking, â€˜How can we film this scene so that viewers are vicariously satisfied and feel their hearts fluttering more?'â€

Nam Joo Hyuk also shared how he felt after the drama finished filming, saying, “After we finished [filming], it felt really sad. I think it was because filming on set was really fun, and I also realized in retrospect that the drama could have been more fun and cute.†While he thought it was a little unfortunate that ratings stayed at 5 percent, Nam Joo Hyuk explained, “Our goal was to focus on creating a good project with fun memories instead of dwelling on ratings, so I don’t feel sad about it.â€

Nam Joo Hyuk’s usual, everyday pictures have been gaining attention for reminding people of an actual boyfriend, and the actor has become popular for having “The boyfriend look.†He responded to this term, saying, “I think fans still see me in a very cute light. But my usual personality is not like that. While I do maintain the cute aspect, I have a great desire to show a more mature image. I want to show a more manly side [of myself].â€

In regards to the final episode of the drama, he revealed, â€œThe end of the drama will be showing a lot of lovable scenes between Joon Hyung and Bok Joo.â€

Meanwhile, “Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo†airs its final episode on January 11, 10 p.m. KST.

Kyung Soo Jin Shares Why She’s Proud Of “Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo†Despite Low Ratings

 

kyung-soo-jin.jpgAfter the end of her drama “Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo†on January 11, Kyung Soo Jin (who played Song Shi Ho) sat down for an interview to talk about the show and working with the cast.

Despite high anticipation and its popular love line, the drama’s highest ratings were only 5.4 percent (according to Nielsen Korea).

“I got a lot of questions about that,†Kyung Soo Jin said with a smile. “But I think that viewership ratings are just a number. At first the audience seemed to be limited, but word got around.â€

The drama began with 3.3. percent ratings and then rose to maintain a steady 5 percent throughout its run.

She added, “There are a lot of ways people can watch dramas nowadays. If you don’t watch it when it airs, you can watch it on VOD or DMB. Rather than viewership ratings, I think it’s important for a drama to leave an impression on the hearts of its viewers. In that sense, I was proud of ‘Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo.'â€

She also said, “People have told me that ‘Weightlifting Fairy’ is a drama that you can’t stop watching once you start. It’s addictive.â€

Although it was difficult for Kyung Soo Jin to accurately and convincingly portray the role of a rhythmic gymnast, she was happy on set. “It was a precious time because so many of my peers were the same age as me,†she said. “Lee Sung Kyung doesn’t seem like she’s younger than me. Whether it’s because she’s tall or not, she’s someone I want to lean on. When we talked, she could be very sincere. But she has a lot of energy too.â€

She added, “Nam Joo Hyuk is a lot like Jung Joon Hyung in real life. There are times when he’s playful, but when he’s acting, he’s focused.†Kyung Soo Jin also said that both Lee Sung Kyung and Nam Joo Hyuk have a lot of ambition towards their acting.

Kyung Soo Jin ended the interview by thanking all the fans of “Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo†for their support.

“Thank you for cheering on Song Shi Ho and walking with her through her character development,†she said. “My next project is a movie in which I play a shaman. I hope to be able to greet all of you with a new side of myself soon.â€

On January 12, while partaking in a wrap-up interview for her latest drama, “Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo,†Lee Sung Kyung showed just how much she adores fellow actress and close friend, Kim Go Eun.

“Kim Go Eun? Well, she’s the epitome of lovableness,†Lee Sung Kyung gushed about her friend.

She continued by sharing a story about Kim Go Eun’s reaction to her kiss scene with Nam Joo Hyuk: “Even though she was busy filming ‘Goblin,’ she still called me to say, ‘Family shouldn’t be doing things like that! What are you two doing?!’ Kim Go Eun is truly an innocent and adorable friend.â€

When asked if she’s been watching her friend’s drama, “Goblin,†Lee Sung Kyung replied, “I wasn’t able to watch all of it because of my filming schedule. Instead, I monitored it through video clips.â€

She continued by jokingly expressing her “jealousyâ€: “Kim Go Eun is showing just how cute she is with her acting in this drama. It’s the cuteness only I should be seeing. I’m worried someone might snatch her away. I demanded her to show that kind of adorableness only to me.â€

Lee Sung Kyung finished off by genuinely praising Kim Go Eun for being a wonderful friend.

“She tends to be shy when meeting new people. However, she is truly an endearing person,†Lee Sung Kyung said. “The girl that smiles like an adorable, innocent puppy in ‘Goblin’ is the real Kim Go Eun. On the phone, she steers away from the typical ‘Hello?’ and warmly greets me by calling my name. I want to make some time to quickly go and see her.â€

“Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo†aired its last episode on January 11.
