This is the second time that Hyun Bin and So Ye-jin is rumored to be dating. The two are currently working together in an upcoming TVN drama entitled "Crash Landing On You."
Both of them have denied the rumors and said that whatever chemistry they have on-screen remains for the show only. Hyun-Bin and Ye-jin met each other last year in the set of "The Negotiation." After the movie launched, the two actors were instantly rumored to be dating.
On December 9, Hyun-bin denied the year-long issue saying "Me and Son are good friends. We always hear people saying we're dating but we just laugh about it. I don't even find it uncomfortable. I know her too well and I don't mind working with her again. I actually love working around her. When I was offered the job to do Crash Landing On You and I found out Son was going to be my workmate, I instantly said yes."
Son also said, "the same goes for me. When I first worked with Hyun-bin for The Negotiation, I've always wanted to do a rom-com or a drama series with him. I always thought it would be perfect. That's why I agreed to do this series and I can't wait for the viewers to watch it. I believe that we've developed great chemistry while working together."
Meanwhile, Crash Landing On You is a drama series about a South Korean heiress and high-rank North Korean soldier who falls in love with each other. Apart from the two leading actors, the plot of the drama is already garnering attention. A lot of people want to see how their love story unfolds especially that the two lead roles come from contrasting parts of the country.
"A lot of people are still uncomfortable with the idea, but the version of North in our drama is quite different than the real one. Most scenes are almost fantasy-like. However, some aspects are identical to the real North. When it was hard for us to shoot some scenes, we resorted to computer graphics," one member of the production team said.
"I hope Crash Landing On You will garner more than 10% viewer ratings on its pilot episode and the succeeding 15 episodes as well," he added.
Hyun-bin also said, "I hope everyone will support our drama and enjoy watching it as much as we enjoyed filming it."
Crash Landing On You's first episode will air tonight, December 14, at 9:00 PM KST.
