Actor Na Hyun Woo confessed his lingering feelings for Nam Yoon Su after shooting 19 + Boy Love (BL) K-Drama "Love in the Big City."
In a recent interview for the promotion of Viki's new series, released on October 21, Na said he couldn't stop thinking about Nam even after filming ended. He even appears in his dreams.
A series based on Park Sang Young's bestseller is about a gay man named Go Young (Nam Yoon Su) who learns to navigate his life and society.
The narrative with the most depth stems from Go Young's complicated relationships, primarily between him and his mother and more so between him and Gyu Ho (Jin Ho Eun), his lover.
But as Go Young heads to Thailand with a complete stranger, the journey soon becomes one of self-discovery.
Na Hyun Woo plays Go Young's second boyfriend, No Young Soo, and their turbulent romance is causing a lot of stir among the masses. Even though No Young Soo is being dubbed the toxic ex-boyfriend character, the chemistry between these two is delightful to watch.
In a recent interview, Na said, "I was fully immersed in the role."
Many find this remark an indication of how good or deep their connection was as far as the act in front of the camera as part of the characters is concerned.
As one X user said, "When you share deep intimate and close relationships with someone especially romantic and sexually you will have them on your mind and depending on how both parties take these emotions it's possible that they become a real couple"
Beyond the plot, however, the K-Drama has drawn attention for its exploration of LGBTQ+ topics – a thread that continues to prompt conversations about media representation in Korea.
