Yoo Seung Ho and Lee Hye Ri Showed off Their Unique Chemistry

Fashion magazine 'Cosmopolitan' unveiled the pictorials of Yoo Seung Ho and Lee Hye Ri, the main characters of KBS2's new Monday-Tuesday drama 'Moonshine', which will be aired for the first time on the 20th, through the January 2022 issue.

In the published pictorial, Yoo Seung Ho and Lee Hye Ri showed off their glamorous couple wearing uniform black outfits.

Lee Hyeri is seen wearing a black sleeveless dress adorned with sparkling crystals and held in the arms of Yoo Seung Ho in a sleek black suit.

Yoo Seung Ho created a strong mood with a hairstyle that slightly covered his eyes with bangs.

In another pictorial, Hyeri and Yoo Seung Ho are seen side by side with an object in between.

Yoo Seung Ho and Lee Hye Ri said, "It's awkward to see the two of us dressed properly after only seeing ouselves in hanbok for 7 months," but quickly resolved the awkwardness and completed a warm couple visual.

The drama 'Moonshine' is a fusion historical drama inspired by the Joseon Dynasty, when the prohibition of alcohol was imposed. . The drama depicts the process of two people meeting like fate and accepting each other.

Yoo Seung Ho said, "Hyeri's personality makes it easy to open people's hearts. I don't speak first, so Hyeri's (friendly) personality helped a lot."

He expressed his gratitude, "Starting with "Has Hyeri eaten every day?" and she asks me about this and that, so I can have something to say and continue the conversation."

Unlike Yoo Seung Ho, who has participated in historical dramas, Lee Hye Ri, who is challenging for the first historical drama this time, said, "I made a confession, (not a literal confession), when I was reading the script. I was a senior for a while, so I asked for help. It helped me a lot by telling me that if I have a little more time, a good work will come out.”

Yoo Seung Ho and Lee Hye Ri had been living together for 7 months, so they asked each other questions not only on the set but also during the interview, creating a perfect 'chemistry', and the laughter did not stop on the set.

Lee Hyeri shared, "Some people find it annoying when I keep asking about trivial things, but (Seungho) oppa is very good at it. Did you answer honestly?"

Then Yoo Seung Ho responded, "(When Hyeri's eyes shine) It's time to joke with me.. Even though her face doesn't seem to be smiling, there is already a smile in her eyes. It seemed like it," he said, drawing attention.

Meanwhile, the interview and pictorials of Yoo Seung Ho and Lee Hye Ri, who played 'Nam Young' and 'Kang Roseo' in 'Moonshine', and pictorials can be found in the January 2022 issue of Cosmopolitan and the Cosmopolitan website.

Lee Jun Young recently opened up about the emotional toll of playing a villain—and how one powerful scene made him break down in tears behind the scenes.

On the May 1st episode of KBS 2TV’s variety show Problem Child in House, Lee Jun Young appeared alongside co-star Jung Eun Ji to promote their new KBS drama Pump Up the Healthy Love.

During the show, Lee Jun Young was asked about the most unforgettable villain he’s played. He chose his role as Han Su Gang in the film Brave Citizen.

He explained, “It was really tough to film. I had to act like I was leading school violence, and there was even a scene where I bullied a grandmother.”

The hosts were surprised, pointing out how kind and gentle he seems in real life. Lee Jun Young shared how he transforms for such roles.

“I try to act as bad as I can, but sometimes the director says, ‘You still look too nice.’ Then I focus even harder and adjust right away.”

He also revealed that filming one particular scene hit him hard emotionally. “My real grandmother was sick at the time,” he said.

“In one scene, there’s a grandma selling gimbap, and I ad-libbed by stubbing a cigarette out on the gimbap. I was really into character, but after filming, I just broke down. So many thoughts came to me and I started crying.”

Fans praised his dedication to acting but also felt moved by how deeply the role affected him. Lee Jun Young’s honesty gave a raw look at how even fictional roles can hit close to home.
