Actor Son Seok Koo revealed the secret to the "kiss scene".

On July 13th, on YouTube channel "China is a Class". A video of the title "[차이나는 밤샘토크] ‘키스신 장인’ 손석구씨, 창희 역할 탐났었다?! ＜나의 해방일지＞ 명장면 코멘터리 | 손석구 ep.3" was posted.

Son Seok Koo discussed the recently concluded JTBC drama "My Liberation Notes" with JTBC director Shin Ye Ri in the video.

Director Shin stated, "Since (the drama) is set in nature, there is only one kiss scene in the entire production, and it takes place in the middle of a mountain."

Son Seok Koo said, "After the kiss scene came out, a lot of comments said, 'What is this? What is this?' However, from the director's point of view, he did as much as he could, and in the script. Originally, we didn't even touch our lips, it was just like that. The director did his best though", he said, revealing the behind-the-scenes story.

In response, Director Shin said, "Nevertheless, after the scene came out, the fans gave him the nickname 'New Kissing Master'".

Seok Koo said, "I… I…Well", he paused "Not bad, the kissing scene", adding, "I don't like it, but I think I can do it well".

"It's also about being honest", he said when asked about the secret. "There are numerous kissing scenes that are obviously staged. I never do that. Because I prefer things that are more authentic. I'm not very good at being honest, but I do my best. I genuinely think it is real. I believe it is equivalent to action (acting). Even the kiss scene contains a line that makes me feel as though I'm not really experiencing it".

Producer Rhymer had a funny and proud moment on TV when he revealed that he got more screen time than actor Kim Woo Bin — and his parents couldn’t be happier.

On the May 1st episode of tvN’s variety show Handsome Guys (episode 21), cast members Cha Tae Hyun, Kim Dong Hyun, Lee Yi Kyung, and Shin Seung Ho were joined by guest Rhymer, filling in for Oh Sang Wook, who was away for the Fencing Sabre World Cup.

The team took on the challenge of suggesting lunch and dinner menus for hardworking office workers.

This wasn’t Rhymer’s first appearance on the show. He had previously joined a special episode focused on people born in the Year of the Snake, where he stood out with his unique and quirky charm.

During the episode, Cha Tae Hyun brought up how Rhymer’s screen time had felt a bit short the last time he appeared.

But Lee Yi Kyung jumped in, saying, “It seemed like you were on a lot,” and Rhymer agreed, adding a proud moment from home.

He said, “It ended up being longer than I expected. My parents even said, ‘You were on longer than Kim Woo Bin,’ and they were really happy about it.”

Rhymer’s lighthearted story had everyone laughing, showing how even the smallest moments on screen can be a big deal for proud parents.
