Super Junior's Choi Siwon opened up about his ideal type and thoughts on dating.

On the September 1st episode of TV Chosun's 'Sikgaek Heo Young Man's Baekban Journey,' Choi Siwon and Jung In Sun, co-stars from the drama 'DNA Lover,' joined the show for a food adventure in Seoul.

During the episode, Heo Young Man asked Choi Siwon, "Why aren't you dating, Siwon?" Choi Siwon hesitated before responding, "It's not that I can't date…" He then jokingly reflected, "Am I the problem? Do I have issues?"

Jung In Sun playfully suggested, "You should take breaks sometimes," to which Choi Siwon laughed and said, "Sometimes? But we’ve been doing well," and added, "I think dating is all about timing."

Heo Young Man, however, teased him, saying, "At 38, it’s not about timing anymore." Choi Siwon, pretending to feel a bit of indigestion, shared, "I want someone who can be there for me when things are tough. Even if they don’t see me as Choi Siwon, it would be nice if they could say, 'Don’t worry, I’m here. Do what you want to do, oppa.'"

When asked if he’s looking for someone like his mother, Choi Siwon cleverly replied, "I genuinely respect my mother as a woman. I haven't met anyone like her. I think my father’s greatest blessing was my mother, and his second blessing was having me as a son," which brought some laughs to the conversation.

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.
