Ha Ji Won thinks that female viewers will fall for her co-star Lee Jin Wook when he appears in their upcoming drama "The Time I Loved You, 7,000 Days."
In an interview for the Korean media outlet Newsen, the actress spoke about Lee Jin Wook and how he compared to some of her previous co-stars.
"I think he's the most appealing so far," she said. "All the women are going to fall for him.
And she has had some attractive co-stars to compare him to. She romanced Hyun Bin in "Secret Garden" and Lee Seung Gi in "King 2 Hearts." She also co-starred with Ji Chang Wook and Jo Jin Moo in "Empress Ki," both of whom she went on to describe as "unexpectedly charming."
Her male co-stars often praise her. In 2012, Lee Seung Gi described her as his ideal co-star and woman.
Ji Chang Wook, last seen in "Healer," also chose her as his ideal woman. On a "Section TV" segment he described her as a good listener and always cheerful.
The actress is known for her ability to bring out the best in her leading men. How does she do it?
"I look at my partners with loving eyes and then I think that viewers do the same," she said in the Newsen interview. "So they look even better. I don't have anything else up my sleeve."
Ha Ji Won described Lee Jin Wook as having the most sparkling eyes when he acts.
"The Time I Loved You, 7,000 Days" is a remake of a popular Taiwanese drama. Ha Ji Won plays Oh Ha na and Lee Jin Wook plays Choi Won. They have been friends for 17 years and during that time they have discussed their inability to find the right person to love. What they can't or won't admit is that they are perfect for each other. It may take the presence of a very suitable suitor for Lee Jin Wook to realize his true feelings for Ha Ji Won.
Yoon Gyun Sang, last seen in "Pinocchio," will play a very appealing free-spirited pianist that seeks to win Ha Ji Won's heart. The drama also stars Choo Soo Hyun, Shin Jung Keun and Seo Ju Hee. Infinite's L plays Ha Ji Won's co-worker.
The drama begins on June 27. Jo Soo Won, who directed "I Hear Your Voice," "Gapdong," and "Pinocchio," is the drama's director. Min Ho Jung, who wrote "Cat On The Roof," is the screenwriter.
