Senior Korean drama fans will never forget him. Kim Hyun Joong has rarely appeared in formal events in recent years, but he is quite active on the YT channel and often shares interesting videos with fans. Recently, he reunited with his junior Ding Haiming, who had co-starred in “Boys Over Flowers”, and the two re-interpreted the classic “Jihoo, do you like her?”14 years apart.
The two exchanged greetings first, and Kim Hyun Joong also explained that he debuted as SS501, and that his junior Hae Myung also debuted with the group two years later. Hae Myung is currently living in Beijing, and is also starring in Chinese TV dramas and becoming an actor. He also joked that the acting and gestures at that time were directed by Kim Hyun Joong, which made Kim Hyun Joong quickly deny it. However, during the conversation, he revealed that Kim Hyun Joong really wanted to try and see China develop, and Hae Myung was also very supportive.
Before Hae Myung returned to China, Kim Hyun Joong invited him to the open space on the roof of the company to relive this classic dialogue again after 14 years. At that time, Hae Myung played the role of a boy who had a crush on Kim Hyun Joong (Yoon Ji Hoo) in “Boys Over Flowers”, but when he saw Ji Hoo taking good care of Jin Si Cho, he asked Ji Hoo if he liked Jin Si Cho in a jealous mood. Since the character played by Hae Ming in “Boys Over Flowers”was not Korean at that time, the director also deliberately wanted his pronunciation to be slightly strange. This feature was retained in the reproduction of the original voice. Please take a look at the comparison in the video:
Kim Hyun Joong pretended to be serious about the scene at first, but after the last line of dialogue, he burst out laughing. Memories from more than ten years ago came to mind. Are the same for everyone who has watched “Boys Over Flowers”?
