Kwak Dong Yeon Says He Put Park Bo Gum On Scrutiny After Getting Suspicious Of His Perfection

C. Hong November 3, 2016

The November 3 episode of KBS’s “Happy Together” featured guests Lee Joon Hyuk, Han Soo Yeon, Ahn Se Ha, B1A4’s Jinyoung, and Kwak Dong Yeon in a “Moonlight Drawn By Clouds” special.

During the recording, the guests talked about lead actor Park Bo Gum and shared stories about his now-famous kindness and good manners. However, Kwak Dong Yeon reportedly took a slightly different approach.

“I’m a very suspicious person,” he said. “I once thought to myself, ‘Someone that perfect has got to have a flaw somewhere.'” He revealed that he once put his co-star on scrutiny to see if he could find that flaw.

When asked about the results of his ‘investigation,’ Kwak Dong Yeon said, “When he eats rice, sometimes he spills a little.”

Although this made everyone laugh, the MCs scolded him for getting their hopes up and asked, “Don’t you spill rice when you eat?” and Kwak Dong Yeon quickly admitted he does.

B1A4's Jinyoung reveals in which area he earns the most money

By alim17  

B1A4's Jinyoung appeared on KBS 2TV's 'Happy Together 3' on November 3!

 

The MCs said they didn't recognize him as B1A4's Jinyoung in his drama, 'Moonlight Drawn by Clouds.'  Jinyoung acknowledged this with, "In real life, when I take off the traditional Korean hat, people can't really recognize me well."

The MCs then complimented him on his self-compositions, and Jinyoung said, "When I was a trainee, I wanted to be of help to the group and came upon a composing program on my laptop.  One day, I made a piano composition on the composing program on my computer and there was a feeling to it.  I turned it on furtively in the practice room. The members liked it, too, and the company thought of it as a title track."

 

Park Myung Soo asked, "As an actor, singer, and composer, in which area do you make the biggest profit?" and Jinyoung replied, "Composing."

 

You make some really great songs, Jinyoung!  A triple threat.

When I think of Ra On's dance in episode 4, Yoo Jung had the most beautiful, deadliest and biggest eyes I've ever seen.  It will forever be my most favorite scene in LITM.

I love how you phrased it: "That includes awareness of a man and a woman".

I'm a romantic but even I know when things get cheesy, so I was worried if MDBC could pull the love story off without being cheesy. And oh GURL... did writer-nim and PD-nim do so well and KYJ as Ra On and PBG as Lee Yeong did it so wonderfully. It was anything but cheesy or boring.

Just a beautiful love story of two people who suddenly had only eyes for eachother. And like you said they didn't waver in their love for eachother. You know I was a bit disappointed when Ra On's gender was revealed so soon but on the other hand I was very happy about it because I knew there was no time to drag the confusion between her and Lee Yeong any longer. Also a sageuk finally defying k-drama rules? How can I not be okay with that?

So yes I was very glad to see her gender being revealed so soon. But also, like you, I loved the fact that Lee Yeong wrote his confession before knowing about it. The message is clear: love is love. No matter what gender. For a sageuk that's a pretty strong statement. Of course for the viewer there was never a doubt in Lee Yeong's sexual orientation because we knew Hong Sam Nom is Hong Ra On. But for a Crown Prince at that time... the struggle was real. Especially when he is a man who has no experience with women but suddenly falls for a man. Something like that can turn a confident man like Lee Yeong into a insecure one. And that's why he became so angry as well to mask this state of insecurity and not knowing what to do with his feelings. But when he came to terms with them and made the decision to give in and confess his feelings it made me so happy he intended to confess to Sam Nom. The reveal of Ra On's gender in-between his plan to confess and then the kiss was the cherry on top.

Okay yet again this post is getting longer than I wanted it to be.

After rewatching, I noticed some more things in scripts, 

- Eunuch Ma and Princess's servant: Ra On explained to Crown Prince from her mind, it might be from her need to confess but she blocked herself that love confession might let a person be able to live even with separation. Even she might tell herself by speaking to Crown Prince but Crown Prince is the one who thought and applied with confession letter. If he could confess to Eunuch he loves to reflect his unconditional love, later it might be easier to keep on deeply loving traitor's daughter esp. he knew that she did not know about rebellion. 

- Little Princess who locked herself from speaking truth with guilty but fear and Crown Prince's sincerity to let Ra On: these made Ra On be brave to unlock herself to dress as a lady

- Compared to some other TV drama, lead roles might show their love to audiences in the sellable scenes as often kiss or hug BUT Crown Prince and Ra On had almost none skinship or intimacy but they treasured and cared with proactive notices for each other which made audiences feel much more of their love from acting with little things.

For example, Crown Prince dared not inform Ra On that he knew her female identity because Ra On served him as Eunuch while he was comfortable as Crown Prince, it was not proper treatment of lover.  

Ra On tried to let Crown Prince married without guilt as he can't avoid when she was Eunuch in palace or when she had to escape.

- Last but not least, as you mentioned cheesy or not. In my opinion, it depended on how lead actor and lead actress act, showing sellable acts or being the characters who do love each other so they naturally express their love. The latter is what Crown Prince and Ra On acted by Park Bo Gum and Kim Yoo Jung had done to let characters go with the flow of love expressions as a man and a woman who have realized their love.

After this high bar of natural love expressions in Moonlight Drawn By Clouds, I felt a little strange to hard-sales love scene formula in some other TV dramas.

'Moonlight Drawn by Clouds' actress talks about making Kim Yoo Jung cry on set

By alice101    1 hour ago    12,911    1,317    1

Actress Han Soo Yeon praised Kim Yoo Jung's passion for acting on a recent TV show. 

On the November 3 installment of 'Happy Together', actors from 'Moonlight Drawn by Clouds' made an appearance to discuss the popular drama that just wrapped up.

 

 

SEE ALSO: Kim Yoo Jung shares behind-the-scene stories from '1 Night 2 Days'

 

 

 

Han Soo Yeon talked about Kim Yoo Jung, commenting, "While filming, there was a scene where I had to slap Kim Yoo Jung in the face...Before the scene, she said, 'Unnie, it's okay to hit me really hard'...For the sake of acting I slapped her very hard, but I guess it was really painful. I found her crying in the corner."  

 

The actress added, "During the trip, I still felt bad about the slap, so I asked her about it. Yoo Jung said, 'Because of that, I could completely become Ra On.' Yoo Jung is really a mature and awesome actress."

Honestly, the three main broadcast stations' drama award shows are usually a farce. Basically those who attended would get an award and those (more deserving ones) who didn't attend didn't win anything. There have been exception of course, but I usually take these award shows with a grain of salt.

Nevertheless, I would still want to see our Moonlight main cast to attend the KBS Drama Award Show (especially the Moonlight main OTP), and it's a given that they would win Best Couple Award. I would be quite annoyed if they do give Yoo Jung a New Best Actress award or something like that just because it's her first female leading role.  The Director-nim should also win for Best Cinematography.

What you said about the  Korea Awards System being a farce for most part is true. Properly speaking,  it can termed more accurately as the KOREAN "RATINGS" SYSTEM AWARDS. In the Korean context, awards are like "thank you's" to the cast and crew for bringing in the ratings that would mean high revenues for  the stations. We all know that high ratings IS NOT automatically  synonymous with quality or excellence.  This is where MDBC IS an exception. From all fronts MDBC is undoubtedly a gem of a drama. The public and media  have  stamped the seal of excellence on the drama. So on Dec. 31 during the KBS awards, I am sure they will rake in many awards not only because of the ratings but MORE SO because of the stellar acting ,  direction, screenplay, cinematography, and musical scoring. MDBC for the win!!!

I think I'm the only one who hasn't watched DOTS drama (I am not interested - sorry). So I DO believe that the couple award will go to our BoYoo

Is there such a KBS Best Kiss Award?, it should go to Moonlight first kiss too !!

@PororoQueen I like your idea.  Maybe they should add this award.

Be it the kiss in the garden.. Or the kiss in ep 13... Or the one within the flower beds... Our heart will skip beating for 3.5 secs

The Best Kiss should undoubtedly be won by YeongOn couple by a landslide haha

I second that! The cinematography is one of the most beautiful that I have ever seen. They should win!

Love is love. It was very clever use of flashbacks. Because at the end of Ep 7 when they kissed, I remember we had a big debate about whether he already knew Sam Nom was female or not. I think after he rescued her from the Qing envoy, he already decided he wanted Sam Nom to always stay by his side. But he was conflicted about his feelings. How could he love a man?

Then the big reveal about Sam Nom in the beginning of Ep 8. The aha moment when we realized why CP smiled when Sam Nom closed his/her eyes for the kiss.

It was really naughty of CP to tease Sam Nom throughout Ep 8 and I am glad that the CP confessed his feelings within the episode.

I saw what you did there, @Grace1003!  

Agreed with you guys.

Drama TV Award for the deserved ones is still worth to watch and valuable recognitions to casts and crews esp. for their coming projects to be casted or approved. As we knew how influencial the main channels and the key cables are to the showbiz people. 

I thought no exact formula applied to all. Facts should be individually analyzed.

I objects some sour grapes who unreasonably attempts to create delusional theory to distort for their favorite ones. 

Production Budget, Rating and Quality might not have correlation. 

Some high quality including great acting as Moonlight Drawn By Clouds could achieve high rating and well response from audiences and medias.

Some low rating TV drama has also had low quality. 

Some Pre-Produced TV drama could be successful while some might not.

Some large budget Production might show quality while some failed.

I was watching the video where they mentioned bloopers within the drama, e.g. when Sam Nom as the dancer did not have the mask on during the dream dance sequence. Actually, kudos to the production team because there is more room for error when you film live and they only caught 4 bloopers?

1. dream dance sequence (Sam Nom sans mask)

2. the lost shoe in Ep 6

3. The missing beads on Yoon Sung's gat during the rain scene

4. The extra assassin sent to kill CP.

I remember the discussions after episode 7, @NRGchick.

To me when I watched the episode and I saw Lee Yeong smile my first reaction was "Don't laugh at her!". I knew his character and I knew he wouldn't tease her to kiss her when he doesn't mean it. But I really thought for a moment he was laughing at her. And I wasn't okay with that because closing her eyes is a big move. Ra On made herself vulnerable to whatever Lee Yeong is going to do.

So unlike other Moonlighters in the thread who were simply relieved that Lee Yeong knew Ra On is a woman before he kissed her. I was happy because the revelation of her gender in the flashback revealed the reason for why he smiled. First because their love isn't a lost cause but mostly because with Ra On closing her eyes it became clear she reciprocates his feelings. It was not a teasing but adorable and warm smile - okay maybe a tiny bit of teasing but only for second and then Lee Yeong went right in for kiss.

And yes he was quiet naughty in episode 8. Like I mentioned before while I believe it wasn't his intention to hurt her or to confuse her with his teasing. He was simply happy and in love and went for it. I'm also glad they didn't drag this state of confusion for Ra On. Also it's a trademark of Ra On's and Lee Yeong's relationship to resolve such conflicts right away.

 

I have just rewatched episode 7-9 continuously and analyzed their feeling from the beginning of confession to end of both's love acceptance, theirs could be as follows

- In secret garden, after he knew her woman identity, he still confessed as he decided after listening to Ra On even he was afraid of losing Ra On, he might smile from his happiness that Ra On felt the same. 

- He restrained to tell Ra On that he knew her woman identity because he dared not to from different status and gap of treatment as he mentioned in ep9. However, he wanna treat Ra On better and be sweet with Ra On as he felt so he did in umbrella scene. 

- I really like the scene when Ra On was jealous from Cho Noble Daughter in the garden getting rejected gift back from Crown Prince. This scene showed her woman's jealousy even she still hid her identity but she hoped Crown Prince would love only Hong Sam Nom. 

- This amazing scene too, In the bracelet giving, Park Bo Gum's acting was thoroughly presented even with his tears to be welled up in his eyes over conversations but not flowed down. Kim Yoo Jung's acting filled with changed emotions from hesitated, fear, uncertain, appreciative, and refrained. Thump Up to both of them.

For 3. I caught another mistake. I think Yoon Sung wore a different gatkeun (beads) in the store, then under the straw roof and later sans the gatkeun. I will confirm it or not as soon as I'm home where I can check it.
