Actress Yoon Eun Hye revealed a surprising behind-the-scenes story from her legendary drama Coffee Prince, and it’s making fans feel nostalgic all over again.

On the May 10 episode of MBC’s variety show The Manager, Yoon Eun Hye visited her manager’s grandmother in Taean. While chatting in the car, she asked her manager which scene from her dramas was the most memorable.

Her manager instantly said the “house date” scene with Gong Yoo in Coffee Prince, saying, “It was kind of sexy. You put your hand on his back… and Eun Chan was leading. How could you lead like that?”

The comment made both of them laugh, and Yoon Eun Hye admitted, “It really does look quite sexy now,” while shyly covering her face.

She also shared that her personal favorite was the royal night scene with Joo Ji Hoon in Princess Hours.

“Watching it again made my heart flutter,” she said, reminiscing about how cute the scene was — including a playful moment cracking eggs and removing her traditional wig.

But what really caught attention was a story she shared from Coffee Prince that fans had never heard before.

Yoon Eun Hye revealed, “After a kiss scene, there was a rooftop dinner. While we were talking sweetly, I leaned on Gong Yoo’s back… and I kissed him without even realizing it. It wasn’t in the script, and it wasn’t supposed to be filmed — but I just kissed him naturally.”

To her surprise, the cameras actually caught the unscripted moment. Actress Chae Jung An, who also starred in Coffee Prince, later asked her, “Are you two dating? That’s not the kind of acting just anyone can do.”

Yoon Eun Hye smiled as she recalled the moment, saying, “At that time, Chae Jung An’s character Yu Ju seemed a bit jealous. She looked so pretty, I started wearing more feminine clothes too.” Her emotional attachment to the character went so deep, it started blending into real life.

The unexpected confession left viewers amazed by her deep immersion into the role — and just how real the chemistry between her and Gong Yoo felt on and off screen.

The hit drama Weak Hero 2 is taking over both streaming charts and fans’ hearts—and now it’s bringing massive attention back to the original Naver webtoon Weak Hero.

According to Netflix's Tudum Top 10 update on April 30, Weak Hero 2 pulled in a huge 6.1 million views (based on total watch time divided by full runtime) just three days after its release. It grabbed the #1 spot on the Global TOP 10 Non-English TV Series chart.

That’s not all—right after it dropped, the drama soared to the top of Korea’s TOP 10 Series and even made the TOP 10 charts in 63 countries, including Brazil, France, Mexico, Belgium, Morocco, Greece, Indonesia, and more.

This follows the success of Weak Hero 1, which previously ranked #8 and stayed on the global chart for five weeks straight.

With all eyes on the new season, fans are now rushing to read the original webtoon, leading to a massive jump in popularity.

The webtoon, which first started in May 2018 and wrapped up in November 2023, is famous for its intense storytelling and emotional depth.

It tells the story of Yeon Si Eun, a quiet and seemingly weak student who turns into a top fighter at a violent school—giving fans a unique and gripping coming-of-age story.

After Weak Hero Class 2 aired, many viewers started reading or re-reading the webtoon from beginning to end. As a result, sales of the webtoon have shot up more than 20 times compared to its average monthly sales after completion.

The series has also been turned into printed books, a mobile game, and even emojis, and has been exported to 9 countries, including North America.

When the first season of the drama premiered on Wavve in 2022, it held 45% of the platform’s total viewing share, proving its wide appeal.

Fans are now hoping for a new sequel season of the webtoon, and the franchise is being praised as a perfect example of how a strong original story can keep growing through great adaptations.
