Actor Im Si-wan, “Senior Byung-hun is a person with the right answers as an actor.”

Actor Im Si-wan explained (?) about visiting Lee Byung-hun's house as a professional visitor.

On the 30th, actor Im Si-wan from the Coupang Play drama 'Boys' Generation' appeared as a guest on Shin Dong-yeop's YouTube channel 'Sweet Brother Shin Dong-yeop'. In the released video titled 'Im Si-wan EP.16 What happens when you get in trouble at a drinking bar?!', Si-wan mentioned an anecdote about visiting Lee Byung-hun's house as a 'professional visitor'.

On this day, Im Siwan expressed his feelings about trying comedy for the first time through the drama 'Boys' Generation'. Im Si-wan said, “Personally, I was a little worried because it was my first attempt at comedy, but I think it came out really funny,” and Shin Dong-yup added, “Im Si-wan and Cha Eun-woo are famous for being funny.” To Im Si-wan, who didn't know what he meant, Shin Dong-yup joked, "Whenever these guys show up, the girls are laughing. They're famous for laughing and being funny no matter what they say."

Shin Dong-yeop asked Im Si-wan, "Don't you try to be funny in private with people you're close to?" Im Si-wan responded, "I tried to do that, but I've put it down a bit these days. Anyway, that's not my passion, so I'll hand over that area to Kwang-hee." He confessed honestly.

Im Si-wan, who usually likes alcohol, said, "My main drink is whiskey, and I kind of love whiskey. I like to compare, taste, pair, look for things, and study on my own." He also revealed an anecdote with Shin Dong-yeop in the past. Shin Dong-yeop visited Son Ji-chang and Oh Yeon-soo's house. In response, Im Si-wan explained, "Oh Yeon-soo's sister contacted me through SOS. She asked senior Dong-yeop what whiskey was right for her. So I gave her the whiskey I had at the time as a gift."

Im Si-wan, who is famous for being a 'professional visitor' and 'professional promiser', previously revealed an anecdote about his visit to actor Lee Byung-hun's house, and it became a hot topic. In response, Im Si-wan said, "I think he has that type of personality. I don't think it's easy to distinguish between them. I think senior Byung-hun is someone who has the right answer as an actor."

He went on to say, "Because he already has the right answer in the field he is interested in and wants to focus on, did that senior say to me, 'Let's have a meal?'? We have to go right away. Whether it's an empty comment or not, it doesn't matter to me." In response, Shin Dong-yeop joked, "From Lee Byung-hun's point of view, I said, 'Let's eat together,' but he ended up coming home," and Im Si-wan emphasized, "No, he said he would meet me at home. I'm not that tactless."

Meanwhile, the Coupang Play drama 'Boys' Generation', in which Im Si-wan appears, is a story that takes place in Chungcheongnam-do in 1989, when Byeong-tae, an Onyang loser whose life-long goal is to live without getting hit, transforms into Buyeo jjang overnight.
