Amidst the tight competition in the Korean entertainment world, Park Hyung Sik and BTS's V have successfully established a good friendship. In fact, in an interview with the 30-year-old actor, he revealed the close bond he has with the band vocalist.
Park Hyung Sik detailed his friendship with V in an interview with the Japanese magazine Mokkan Henshu. Also known as Kim Taehyung, he is now one of the most famous K-Pop idols globally, so how does the "Juror 8" star manage to maintain their bond?
The ZE:A and ZE:A Five member admitted, via AllKpop, he still couldn't believe that his best friend is loved all over the world. He's not only a known singer, but he has also received some awards with his fellow BTS members from different American award shows.
"The Heirs" star is even surprised to see foreign fans singing Korean songs. But behind the fame, V is a cute younger brother for him.
They always exchange jokes when they meet up. In fact, despite being recognized worldwide, the singer-songwriter remains the same and is down to earth. "In terms of work, he is a professional, but he is usually an ordinary boy," he revealed.
Park Hyung Sik and V first became close friends when they did the Korean historical drama series "Hwarang: The Poet Warrior Youth." They, then, formed "Wooga Squad," along with other actors Park Seo Joon, Choi Woo Shik and the singer Peakboy.
As their group turned famous, the K-media started to dub them the "Representatives of the Entertainment Industry." From there, the friendship between the two became iconic, per Koreaboo.
They will usually treat their fans with their cute banters and funny interactions. In fact, their followers even saw more of their bond online when BTS opened their own Instagram accounts.
In fact, when V dropped the official soundtrack of "Our Beloved Summer" for his other BFF, Choi Woo Sik, Park Hyung Sik was one of the many people who commended the song. He personally shared a snippet of it from the drama, highlighting his pal's voice, on Instagram.
In the caption, he wrote, "Out beloved summer...with V," which showed how proud he was of his friend. So when V saw it, he quickly left a comment, saying, "Commenting heh."
Of course, Park Hyung Sik joined in the fun and responded to V's comment with, "Commenting on your comment, heh." By the looks of it, they have the same level of humor that makes their friendship a success.
