Actor Kim Do-hoon opened up about his recovery from a motorcycle accident injury.
On the 30th, a press conference for the TVING original series 'Dear X' was held at CGV Yongsan I'Park Mall in Seoul. The event was attended by actors Kim Yoo-jung, Kim Young-dae, Kim Do-hoon, Lee Yeol-eum, and director Lee Eung-bok.
'Dear X' tells the story of Baek Ah-jin (played by Kim Yoo-jung), a woman who wears a mask to escape hell and rise to the top, and the Xs who were cruelly trampled by her. It is a suspenseful melodrama about the downfall of South Korea's top actress Baek Ah-jin, who hides her cruel nature behind a beautiful face, and the love of Yoon Joon-seo (played by Kim Young-dae), who chooses hell to protect her.
Kim Yoo-jung plays Baek Ah-jin, a woman who wears a mask to survive, while Kim Young-dae takes on the role of Yoon Joon-seo, a man who believes salvation is love. Kim Do-hoon portrays Kim Jae-oh, Baek Ah-jin's blind supporter.
In March, Kim Do-hoon suffered a fracture near his left forearm muscle while practicing for a bike scene. He was diagnosed with a 24-week recovery period. Kim Do-hoon stated, "I have received excellent treatment and have recovered well."
He added, "I had a minor accident while practicing on the bike. I knew how to ride a motorcycle safely, so the injury was unexpected. This experience taught me to always be cautious. I have recovered well."
MC Park Kyung-lim jokingly remarked, "You came in motorcycle gear today," to which Kim Do-hoon replied, "I came by car today. I won't be riding a bike," eliciting laughter.
Meanwhile, the TVING original 'Dear X' will premiere its first four episodes on November 6th at 6 PM on TVING.
