Actor Jang Dong Gun created buzz for calling soccer player Park Ji Sung 'hyung' (older brother) on 'A Gentleman's Dignity'.
In the prologue of SBS's weekend drama 'A Gentleman's Dignity' on the 21st, the four main characters watched a premier league soccer game together on a morning in 2010.
The appearance of Park Ji Sung, who is associated in England's premier league with Manchester United, on the television screen during his match captured the attention of audiences. At this time, Do Jin (Jang Dong Gun) remarked, "Who knew that our nation's athlete would become a part of the premier league? And with Manchester United at that. Ah, I'm so proud of Ji Sung hyung."
Choi Yoon (Kim Min Jong) replied dumbfounded, "Hyung?," as Do Jin continued, "If you participate in the premier league, you're a hyung. He's my hero these days."
Following, Jung Rok (Lee Jong Hyuk) appeared with a Taekwon V miniature cake and introduced the character as his hero. The other three continued by saying that Superman, Spiderman, and Batman were their childhood heroes.
Audiences also laughed at Yi Soo's fellow Park teacher (Nam Hyun Joo), as she mentioned her husband in front of Do Jin, "Everyone says he looks like Jang Dong Gun."
