On the YouTube channel 'MMTG Civilization Express,' produced by SBS News, a video titled 'Is Kim Jae-wook Really Beyond Sexy? (w. Shin Hye-sun, Gong Myung, Kim Jae-wook)' was released.
In the video, Shin Hye-sun, Gong Myung, and Kim Jae-wook, stars of 'Secret Gratitude,' shared various behind-the-scenes stories. The cast engaged in a heated discussion about the source of sexiness, agreeing that it stems more from appearance than personality.
Shin Hye-sun particularly highlighted an anecdote where Kim Jae-wook's mere walking on set drew gasps from the crew. She reported that even the camera director praised Kim's aura, saying it exuded a vibe beyond sexy. Gong Myung also agreed, applauding Kim's unique presence.
Contrary to his intense image, Kim Jae-wook's real life is revealed to be healthy and harmonious, providing an unexpected twist. During his high school days, he was immersed in band music and aspired to live the life of a short-lived genius, confessing that his harmonious family was a complex for him at the time.
Shin Hye-sun shared that Kim Jae-wook diligently participates in family traditions like making kimchi and returning home for holidays. Kim recently took his mother on a shopping and hot spring trip to Fukuoka, Japan, showcasing a peaceful life starkly different from his past aspirations.
Beyond acting, Kim Jae-wook has ventured into film distribution, demonstrating his expertise as a cinephile. He has shown a unique attachment to films by renting a favorite café for promotional video shoots and personally hosting GV (Guest Visit) sessions, despite budget constraints.
Shin Hye-sun praised his excellent sensibility, while Kim humbly stated that he is doing his best within his capabilities.
Meanwhile, Shin Hye-sun, who was once skeptical of dating shows, shared an intriguing story of how she came to deeply resonate with the authenticity of the program 'Transit Love' while filming the drama 'Welcome to Samdalri' to immerse herself emotionally.
