Actor Go Kyu-pil candidly discussed his chemistry with Ma Dong-seok on the latest episode of KBS 2TV's 'Pyeonstorang'.
On the episode aired on the 29th, Go Kyu-pil joined as a special MC. Known for his roles in the drama 'Crash Landing on You', 'The Fiery Priest', and the film 'The Outlaws 3', Go expressed his gratitude, saying, "Thank you for having me," with a charming smile.
Lee Jung-hyun shared a special connection with Go, revealing, "My husband is close friends with Go Kyu-pil's high school friend. My husband often replays Go's scenes from 'The Outlaws' with pride." Go confirmed their friendship, adding, "We even have meals together."
Shin Ji praised Go, stating, "Successful projects always have Go Kyu-pil in them." Go introduced the new KBS2 drama 'Twelve', which premiered on the 23rd, featuring actors Ma Dong-seok, Sung Dong-il, Park Hyung-sik, Seo In-guk, and Lee Joo-bin.
'Twelve' is an action hero drama inspired by the Eastern zodiac, depicting 12 angels living as humans to protect humanity against evil forces. In the series, Go plays 'Donnie', the angel symbolizing the pig, while Ma portrays 'Tae-san', the tiger angel.
When asked about his role among the zodiac, participants guessed, "A rat because he's cute?" or "A rabbit suits him," but Go humorously confirmed, "No, it's a pig." Boom added, "The casting is perfect," eliciting laughter.
Go shared a casting anecdote, revealing, "Ma Dong-seok called and said, 'There's a pig role, and there's no other option but you.' It felt good, but not entirely," he admitted.
Chef Lee Yeon-bok jokingly lamented, "I should have been the pig, and you the tiger," to which Go replied, "I want to have a long career," bringing more laughter.
Having worked with Ma on four projects, Go noted, "Our food preferences don't match. Ma likes spicy food, but I can't handle it. He doesn't know that yet."
Regarding Ma's cooking skills, Go humorously added, "I haven't seen him cook, but he's good at opening packages," leaving the audience in stitches.
