Kim Ji Suk and Park Bo Gum have been good friends since they worked together for the SBS 2013 series "Wonderful Mama." As the two stars now have their solo projects, "Top Star U-Back" and "Encounter," they show support for each other.
Kim Ji Suk shared a screenshot of his conversation with Park Bo Gum on Instagram. "Even 'Encounter' star Park Bo Gum is going to watch 'Top Star U-Back.' D-1 till the first episode airs," the 37-year-old actor captioned the snap.
He also used fun hashtags and apologized to Park Bo Gum for using his name for the promotion of "Top Star U-Back." Kim Ji Suk even joked that he has been waiting for a moment when he could use his "Bo Gum chance." He also listed the brands the 25-year-old star endorses, saying it is his effect. "Bo Gum is love," he added.
In the conversation, translated by Soompi, Park Bo Gum told Kim Ji Suk that he thinks "Top Star U-Back" is going to be a fun television series. He even promised that he would watch the show. The "Love in the Moonlight" star then advised the "Problematic Men" actor to take care of himself as it is now cold in South Korea.
In response, Kim Ji Suk told Park Bo Gum not to lie because he is sure that he will watch "Top Star U-Back." He then said that he knows he is also busy filming "Encounter," and he has watched its "epic teaser video." "That wave was really something," he wrote.
Kim Ji Suk also promised Park Bo Gum that he would also watch "Encounter," as the latter vowed to watch "Top Star U-Back" even in reruns. They both thanked each other, and then the "Another Miss Oh" actor called his pal the "pure-spirited Kim Jin Hyuk."
Park Bo Gum will be playing the role of Kim Jin Hyuk in the upcoming tvN series "Encounter," alongside Song Hye Kyo as Cha Soo Hyun. The show will tell the story of a woman who never had the chance to live for herself and a man who has a pure and free soul. The show will air every Wednesday and Thursday starting on November 28, replacing "The Smile Has Left Your Eyes."
On the other hand, Kim Ji Suk will star in another tvN series "Top Star U-Back." He will be playing the role of an A-list celebrity U-Back who makes a big scandal and gets exiled to Yeojeuk Island. Here, he will experience the life living in the slow countryside and falls in love with Oh Kang Soon (Jun So Min).
U-Back will also meet the star of the island, Oh Lee Sang Yeob (Choi Ma Dol), who will return home on a "deep-sea fishing vessel." "Top Star U-Back" will air on November 16 on tvN.
