However, not everyone was able to separate the actor from his character. Many viewers of ‘Queen of Tears’ expressed their anger directly to Park Sung Hoon.

During his recent public appearances, he asked people to hate Eun Sung, not him.

While guesting on ‘You Quiz on the Block,’ he shared a story about a woman at a restaurant who hit his back, telling him to leave the main characters of ‘Queen of Tears’ alone.

In an interview with JoyNews24, Park Sung Hoon revealed that he saw many viewer reactions online and even received a lot of direct messages via social media.

The hate was so intense that he had to take a break. But as the Korean saying goes, the more hate you receive, the longer you’ll live!

“I got so much hate for the role, enough to last me a lifetime. I couldn’t even check my DMs for a while because of all the angry messages. But I’m not actually like that. I’m glad many people loved the show and had so much affection for the Hae In x Hyun Woo couple. It’s been a great deal of joy seeing the support,” Park Sung Hoon shared.

In an interview with The Korea Times, he explained why he didn’t mind receiving the hateful messages too much. He feels complimented, knowing he portrayed his character well. “I’m actually not bothered or hurt by those direct messages… Because they root for Hong and Baek, they have such feelings toward my character. That’s how much they love and put interest in our series so I enjoy reading the comments. Now I think perspectives have changed. Previously, people used to see the character as the actor’s real personality, but now, more people see it separately. So I try to think of it as compliments that I portrayed my character convincingly,” he said.

Park Sung Hoon will soon star in the second season of Netflix‘s hit Korean thriller series ‘Squid Game.’

He is excited to be then associated with the new character’s name. “I’ve been called Jae-jun then Eun-seoung. So next, I hope I can be called by the character’s name from ‘Squid Game,'” he shared.

BLACKPINK’s Jisoo shared a surprising story from her trainee days!

On January 29, the latest episode of Dex’s Fridge Interview was released on YouTube. During the chat, Dex asked Jisoo if she ever rebelled or broke the rules as a trainee. She confidently replied, “Not at all. The only rebellion I had as a trainee was eating.”

Dex then jokingly imitated her younger self, saying, “I’m perfect, so why are they telling me not to eat? I’m going to eat tteokbokki!”

Jisoo laughed and admitted, “Actually, I was really chubby back then. They kept telling me to lose weight, but I always said, ‘No, I need to eat. I like myself chubby.’”

She even recalled a moment with YG Entertainment’s founder, Yang Hyun Suk:
“The boss told me to lose weight, and I responded like that. He just walked away, thinking, ‘She’s a weird one.’ I literally said, ‘No! I like myself chubby!’”

Jisoo then revealed that after she debuted, she naturally lost weight. She added, “Later, after I debuted and naturally lost weight, he was like, ‘You didn’t lose weight when I told you to, but now that you debuted, you did.’”

Fans are loving Jisoo’s confidence and honesty! Meanwhile, her full interview on Dex’s Fridge Interview is now available on YouTube.
