Actor Nam Joo Hyuk explained the "hand shape".

On the 31st of last month, on the YouTube channel "Management Forest", "I'm here to tell you… A video titled, "Reporter Baek Yi Jin’s test” was uploaded.

Nam Joo Hyuk said, "I know this", adding, "I can't forget this. My hand. I wanted to explain it” he said. "Let's go back to this time (2019 Blue Dragon Film Awards)” he smiled.

Nam Joo Hyuk continued, "Experts at this came (Hand printing expert). They put one in front of each of the actors there. I mean the plate. So, I asked what should I do?. He told me to push my hand in hard, and the liquid was only supposed to go around my fingers, but it covered them all".

Nam Joo Hyuk said, "I asked if it was okay, and he said he'll use only the bottom, so it didn't matter how it looked on top. I said okay and took it out, and that's how it looked. It came out okay (The palm) only on this part.”

The production team told Nam Joo Hyuk, "People asked if you had Ponyo hands…” he said. Nam Joo Hyuk asked, "Ponyo?” .

He added, "Is there such a thing? But my hand is honestly huge. I can't even make it look like that. How do you do that? How are you supposed to that? That wasn't a mistake. It came out fine. Yes. It's fine as long as it's funny” he said coolly.

Nam Joo Hyuk is appearing in the tvN Saturday drama "Twenty Five Twenty One" as Baek Yi Jin.

Hyun Bin is finally addressing the long-standing "ddongcha" (poop car) theory surrounding his character from My Name is Kim Sam-soon—and he's not holding back!

In an interview on the 19th with Star News, the beloved actor confessed, "I was wrong," responding to the reevaluation of his iconic role as Hyun Jin-heon from the 2005 hit drama. The "ddongcha" theory has been a subject of online debate for years, with many viewers critiquing Hyun Jin-heon’s character as overly arrogant and entitled.

Hyun Bin, who first rose to fame in My Name is Kim Sam-soon, took the time to reflect on the character that made him a household name. He shared, “I was just following the script; there were no personal opinions added to the character of Hyun Jin-heon. At that time, I knew Hyun Jin-heon was portrayed as a ‘bad boy,’ and the way it was expressed was different from today’s standards.”

With My Name is Kim Sam-soon now being re-released as part of Wavve's "New Classic" project, fans are revisiting the 2005 drama, and the character of Hyun Jin-heon is under fresh scrutiny. Director Kim Yun-cheol even admitted that the "prince on a white horse" and "bad boy" tropes that once worked in 2005 don’t quite match today's sensibilities, leading to edits in the 2024 version.

Hyun Bin humbly acknowledged his gratitude for his successful career and hit works, saying, "It’s wonderful and I am grateful to have so many hit works. I’ve been fortunate to work with amazing writers, directors, and actors. Thanks to them, I’ve received a lot of attention and love." He also shared a sense of humility, noting, “But I never know when that luck will come again."

Despite the dramatic shift in perspective on his character, Hyun Bin’s charm and dedication remain strong. Fans are eager to see him in his upcoming film Harbin (directed by Woo Min-ho), set to be released on the 24th.
