K-drama fans started shipping Park Shin Hye and her co-star Lee Jong Suk as soon as their casting was announced for the upcoming SBS drama "Pinocchio."

And Lee Jong Suk's recent statements have done little to discourage fans from daydreaming about the relationship the actors might have in real life. The sincere way they complimented each other at the drama's recent press conference has fans drawing hearts around the stars' names.

Apparently they really enjoy working together. When asked about his co-star, Lee Jong Suk said, "She is lovely. Really."

And he is not shy about letting her know it.

"When I filmed scenes with Park Shi Hye, I told her she was pretty," said Lee Jong Suk. "Then she said that it was just lip service. But I said she was pretty because she actually is pretty."

Viewers who meet the actress in person are often surprised by how naturally glamorous and self-poised she is. But that may be because viewers have watched her grow up on screen. They may expect her to be insecure like her character in "You're Beautiful" or very shy like her character in "Flower Boys Next Door."

She's glamorous but she's also modest, relayed Lee Jong Suk, because she refuses to believe she was pretty.

"She kept telling me to stop lying, but I think she is lovely enough to be loved," he said.

When Park Shin Hye was asked about Lee Jong Suk, she said that he was "cool." She agreed with what Lee Bo Young said about him when they worked together on the paranormal courtroom thriller 'I Hear Your Voice."

Lee Bo Young and Lee Jong Suk had a close younger brother-older sister relationship on the drama set. And when the drama ended she invited him to her wedding with actor Ji Sung.

"I watched an interview that Lee Bo Young did," said Park Shin Hye. "I remember she complimented him and said he was 'so lovely.' He has great manners too. I think Lee Jong Suk contributes a lot to the good atmosphere on set. He must be tired too but he helps sustain a level of energy. I am enjoying the filming because of him."

She plays Choi In Ha, a young reporter who cannot tell a lie or she starts violently hiccupping. He plays her eventual love interest, the unfashionable but talented reporter Choi Dal Po. And according to Park Shin Hye the two have some chemistry.

"My heart would flutter from time to time when I saw a cool side of Dal Po," she said. "I think that the camera will translate that chemistry well."
