Midnight interview with You’re Beautiful’s sleep-deprived but happy cast
The following video clip (watch below) and interview caught the cast of You’re Beautiful in a rare spare moment as they filmed busily — time is scarce and it looks like they’re in the thick of live-shooting by this point, with just three more weeks left till the series wraps. The cast also seems unusually close and always in good humor, based on the behind-the-scenes clips that have been released.
(Basically, my principal reaction to the interview was, “Jang Geun-seok and Park Shin-hye, just date already!!” Seriously, it seems like they’re always flirting, and it’s too cute.)
In the clip, Park Shin-hye starts by explaining the cast’s nicknames for each other (which are explained in more detail below), and then starts reciting one of her lines when Lee Hong-ki appears. Hong-ki takes over and imitates one of Mi-nam’s lines from the scene in Episode 1 where she’s drunk at the party, and Shin-hye acts Jeremy’s part. Jung Yong-hwa arrives and Shin-hye recites his line from the Towel Scene. And then everyone imitates Jang Geun-seok.
They only sleep one to two hours a night and are wrestling with last-minute script pages, but the You’re Beautiful team was asked for a short interview. The clock read 1:30 am. The reason the interview went longer than asked is because of those unstoppable “pretty boys.” At times serious, at times playful, their moonlit chatter doesn’t stop. This is the unstoppable relay between Jang Geun-seok, Park Shin-hye, Lee Hong-ki, and Jung Yong-hwa.
How would it be having a girlfriend like Go Mi-nam?
Hong-ki: “Go Mi-nam is a really pure and kind girl, although her appearance is boyish.”
Geun-seok: “I think I’d feel burdened. If we dated, I’d feel like she might get dirtier.”
Hong-ki: “I’d feel too sorry to her to date. She’s so kind that even if I did something wrong, she’d keep forgiving me. I like fun girls. Someone where we build up a lot of memories and affection by going through a lot of problems and incidents together.”
Geun-seok (in rapid interview mode): “Hong-ki, do you have an ideal woman among celebrities?”
Hong-ki (very seriously): “I do. Song Hye-gyo. What about you, Geun-seok hyung?”
Geun-seok (momentarily pausing): “I don’t. Um… Aside from Park Shin-hye, I don’t have anyone. Keke.”
Yong-hwa: “I like good-hearted girls. Someone who doesn’t lie, who shows her emotions on her face… I like Go Mi-nam, too. Since I’m Shin-woo.”
Geun-seok: “What if Park Shin-hye asked to date you?”
Shin-hye (suddenly solemn): “That will not happen.”
Yong-hwa (with a special smile): “I’d have to take care of her. Because I’m Shin-woo.”
HIGH CUT:: “Shin-hye sshi, between the prickly Hwang Tae-kyung, gentle Kang Shin-woo, and quirky Jeremy, who is closest to your ideal man?”
Shin-hye: “Choose between prickly, gentle, and quirky? Um… As a character, the most attractive is the prickly Hwang Tae-kyung?”
Geun-seok: “Ah… so Shin-hye shows her feelings for me again.”
Yong-hwa: “I’m telling you, no matter how much I cover her with that towel, it’s no use.” [Jung Yong-hwa earned the nickname of "Towel Guy" for the scene in the men's locker room for covering Go Mi-nam's eyes with a towel.]
Shin-hye: “Hwang Tae-kyung is the one to fall for the more you see him, Kang Shin-woo is the one who draws you the moment you see him, and Jeremy’s always fun to be with. To be honest, if I had to pick one between them it would be the prickly Hwang Tae-kyung.”
HIGH CUT:: “Do you like bad boys?”
Shin-hye: “Not exactly… um…”
Geun-seok: “If you ask women about liking bad boys, they will mostly deny it, but it’s true. They’d die before admitting it though.”
Shin-hye: “I never said I’d die before admitting it.” [Using Go Mi-nam's speech pattern] “Yes, that is true. You are attractive.”
Nicknames Renai-Jang, Avant-Hye, Hong-Star, Bolmae-Jung
Shin-hye: “There are nicknames we have for each other on set. Renai-Jang, Bolmae-Jung, Hong-Star, Avant-Hye…”
Geun-seok: “Shin-hye came up with Renai-jang, and I came up with Avant-Hye. Renai-jang comes from Renaissance Jang, because my ideal woman is a Renaissance type woman.”
HIGH CUT:: “Renaissance style? @.@”
Shin-hye: “Really feminine, very wifely and motherly. It’s like the style of women in the paintings drawn from the Renaissance to Rococo eras, when they wore dresses with small waists and large hips, and carried parasols.”
Hong-ki: “A woman in body and spirit, whose every feature is womanly.”
Geun-seok: “Shin-hye looks very boyish in the drama but in real life, she’s extremely feminine. At Chuseok time, the Mother Superior brought steamed chestnuts. Everyone was eating them by just biting into them, but Shin-hye had found a knife somewhere and was peeling them for us. It was such a feminine thing. Saying ‘You’re so Renaissance-like’ might make her feel nervous, so I called her ‘Avant-Garde Shin-hye’ instead, which is one step away from that, or ‘Avant-Hye.’”
Shin-hye: “‘Bolmae-Jung’ means ‘Yong-hwa Who Is Attractive Just As He Is’ [그대로 볼수록 매력적인 용화]. He is incredibly talented in songwriting and music, and he wrote the rap on the OST song ‘Promise’ himself. ‘Hong-Star’ is because he shines on his own. When I asked, ‘Hong-ki, what should we call you?’ he said, ‘Hong-Star!’”
Hong-ki: “I’ve been Hong-Star star since I was younger. It means I’d become a star, keke. That’s why Geun-seok hyung likes me a lot. Keke.”
A.N.JELL idols talk about idols
Geun-seok: “What is the concept of idols these days?”
Hong-ki: “These days, idols are young singers in a group. If a young singer comes out solo, they’re not an idol, they’re just a solo singer.”
Shin-hye: “In the past, it used to be that idols were 17 to 20 years old, but these days the range has broadened.”
Hong-ki: “The word idol is actually a really good word. It means the victory of teenagers. But if you don’t want to be called an idol and you start to be called it anyway, it can be difficult, just because of that one descriptor. Of course, celebrities have to manage their private lives, but the moment you become an idol, the restrictions increase. There are incredible things you gain, but also things you lose.”
Geun-seok: “There’s also the image that as an idol, you don’t live according to your personal life but that you’re a machine-like thing that moves according to the fans’ wishes. I haven’t tried being a singer so I don’t know for sure, but an actor absolutely cannot do that. To move according to the plans decided by the management company, like a flower in a greenhouse or a puppet, isn’t what an actor does. I’m a bit wild. If I go to the hair salon, I go alone. I really hate having a manager make an appointment for me or opening doors for me. Because this is my life. School, friends, that’s all on my own time, so I don’t understand why managers have to care about that and come into those areas.”
Hong-ki: “Because I am an idol, I feel the same way as hyung. Everyone dislikes excessive meddling, but there are aspects that you can’t control, because you’re one team. You can’t help it because it’s not about you.”
HIGH CUT:: “On the other hand, you get grand performances, hot popularity, and fans’ cheers and applause.”
Hong-ki: “That’s something you can’t forget.”
Shin-hye: “If you win some, you also lose some. Actors have our own lives too, but there are things like scandals and gossip that make people talk. You have to take responsibility for more things.”
HIGH CUT:: “As you act as A.N.JELL idols, do you ever get confused between reality and acting? Like you’re a four-member idol group yourselves.”
Shin-hye: “For me, after being with all four of us, when I find myself alone I feel empty. I start feeling down.”
Geun-seok: “Aside from an hour or two to shower, we’re together almost 24 hours a day. We’re really like an idol group.”
Shin-hye: “Actually, our lives right now are a lot like idols’ lives.”
Geun-seok: “Our shooting schedule is like an idol’s schedule. When we get the scripts, we barely have time to get familiar with them before we have to start shooting the next morning. Sometimes I feel sad about it, but finding your best within that is the skill of an actor. Everyone’s doing such a scary-good job that it’s startling.”
Hong-ki: “As we act, we barely have enough time to find own selves, but in the middle of that whirlpool we joke around and chat with each other. That may be an idol-like thing. Geun-seok hyung is good friends with a lot of idols. Shin-hye is good friends with me, and I’m an idol too.”
Shin-hye: “Of course! You’re the only idol I’m close to.”
In between the cast’s friendship and passion
HIGH CUT:: “Geun-seok sshi recently posted a message on the drama’s forum, which became widely talked about. The part about ‘It was my fault’ left an impression.”
Geun-seok: “My dongsaengs [younger castmates] had already written messages on the forums asking people to tune in. But I’m the eldest. This is my first time being the oldest on set. I thought that as the lead, I could have an influence on my dongsaengs, and it made me think about things more than the others. Rather than asking for people to watch, I thought that it might click more with people to express my thoughts about how things were, leading to the halfway point. It also came from feeling the burden. In any case, I couldn’t not talk about the ratings… I’m always like that to my dongsaengs, saying let’s not focus on the percentages but let’s have fun amongst ourselves. But because these guys are doing so well, I sometimes wonder if it’s a problem with me. As we came to the halfway point, I thought a lot about this and that.”
HIGH CUT:: “What’s your secret for gaining praise from viewers even while you’re wrestling with last-minute script pages and a killer schedule?”
Geun-seok: “All of us are pretty smart. We all know what ground we have to cover, our roles, and what we have to clearly express in each scene. If we are lacking in anything, it’s that we talk honestly with each other without reservations. That’s not regarding the acting, though… Also, when actors are working off each other, it’s difficult to maintain the same tension among all four people, but Shin-hye, Hong-ki, Yong-hwa and I amazingly are in tune with each other.”
Shin-hye: “Each of the four members has our own corner so the structure is like a rectangle, and a rectangle can’t roll. But it seems like we’re rolling along like a circle. We’re all similar in age, too…”
HIGH CUT:: “Because you each have an abundance of your own individual characteristics, it can’t be easy to roll along…”
Hong-ki: “I think we’re rolling along well because our personalities are pretty distinct.”
Shin-hye: “We make up for the gaps with the others, like fitting pieces to a puzzle. If a script comes out today that we’ll start filming tomorrow, we don’t have time to memorize it properly but when we work, it comes together so well it’s almost unreal. It’s amazing teamwork.”
Hong-ki: “When working with FT Island, when I get really tired, I can get bad-tempered. But here, when I get tired I joke around with Yong-hwa and Geun-seok hyung. When I arrive at the set in the mornings, Yong-hwa pounds on my car window. I’m a bit reserved, but we became friends right away. I’ve heard that people who are a little weird get along well. When I see Geun-seok hyung, he glares first. And I talk a lot with Shin-hye. I don’t have any time to feel depressed.”
Geun-seok (suddenly): “If you want to know what it’s like [in a sudden booming voice], KOONG!”
The three others (In perfect order, as though they were waiting for it): “JJAK!”
Koong-jjak is a sort of onomatopoeic expression of rhythm, like bang-thump.
Geun-seok (With Hwang Tae-kyung’s proud expression): “This is what our relationship is like.”
Shin-hye: “When Geun-seok oppa says ‘koong,’ we immediately say ‘jjak.’ That’s our relationship.”
What “You’re Beautiful” means in my life
Shin-hye: “It’s the best present to my 20-year-old self.”
Hong-ki: “It’s my best work after acting again as an adult.”
Yong-hwa: “It has a huge meaning that can’t be said in words. This is my first time on television, and I can’t forget it. There are the nicknames Towel Guy, even Milk Guy.”
Hong-ki: “Geun-seok hyung must feel so honored to have met Hong-ki…”
Geun-seok: “Um… It’s the fairy-tale-like story of young, beautiful kids. At some point, I’m sure I’ll change and go more macho, and my body will probably change. I want to pick out what the current, 23-year-old Jang Geun-seok looks like now, in this best time of life, the most beautiful time…”
Hong-ki: “The most ‘flower-like’ time. We’re flower buds, and hyung, you’ve bloomed. Keke.”
HIGH CUT:: “Shall we end this chat here for our flower-like young men?”
All four members: “Yes, thank you. Please don’t watch IRIS. Keke.”

I love PSH’s square analogy, it’s brilliant!
This cast is really really cool. They’re so full of energy. Judging by their superb performance, it’s hard to believe how they’d receive the script one night and immediately act it out the next day.
omgosh can all four of the just please come and BE MY BEST FRIENDS?!?! why are they all so cute!??!!
btw- I was always wondering.. did Jang Geunsuk and Park ShinHye ever do advertising for Etude House together? I remember seeing them both in Etude house CFs, but I can’t remember if they were ever together… hmmm
OH AND SHINWOO <333 his gold gauges look so hot. hehehhee him in a suit is my dream come true <3
I think Park ShinHye and Hongki should date.. because AS cute as she is with JGS… I want him and YongHwa for MEEEEE!! HAHAHHAHHAHA
Keke… this interview was so cute
. My You’re Beautiful hit for the week until Wednesday comes along…. Thanks JB!
ahahah…they’re all so funny. =D
@glitzyglam,
Yes, they did a series of Etude House CFs together… like this one:
I love how they’re like ‘please dont watch IRIS’ to end the interview. LOL
And I think Geun Seok & Shin Hye are really cute together!
Their affinity with each other is so, SO much fun to watch. You feel like you’re having fun with them, yet a bit despondent because you’re not one of them. Yonghwa reallllly got the Taekyung voice down! I love how Jang Geun Seuk imitates his own character, and Hongki did the bug-eyed face expression. This show is so well put-together, you would never believe they just shot it the day before. I’m glad they’re not worn out. Also, seriously our OTP are not even trying to hide the flirting. Could they be any more obvious?
I LOVE THIS SHOW.
Wow more YAB news!
I love this cast. They have such a great rapport and they’re having the time of their lives. While being exhausted that is. Also, I like the last photo of Shin-Hye and UEE. I wish she’s in the interview though! She’s doing a great job as a super, sometimes cartoonish villain.
Cute! pLEASE don’t watch IRIS hahahaha. they really have a sense of good humour.
Agree about the flirty vibes, esp from jang geun seok.
@JB – GAHHH!! that just killed me right there. like, in a good melting my heart sort of way (: kekeke <3
I just remembered that one JGS and GoAra cute little dancing one (I think for the peach line?) and didn't expect to see THIS kissy-smoochy one!! waaaahahahhaa
THANK YOU!
Thanks for translating!
I love the four of them together. Heck I love UEE as He Yi too. I hope A.N.Jell performs together but it shouldn’t conflict with FT Island’s activities.
It’s so sweet that they are so close. On another clip Geun Suk slaps Hongki’s ass twice, it’s hilarious.
I love it! That was such a great interview. The cast as a whole has such great chemistry. Thank you for posting this!
“There are incredible things you gain, but also things you lose.”
–Hong-ki.
For me, that was the best part of the interview.
Aside from JGS sort of implying that PSH is his Renaissance woman, of course ;D. I wish there were more behind the scenes! >.<
loools. watching them interact together was beyond adorable.
the clip above only shows a little part of it, right?
if true, does anyone know where i can watch the rest?
SO adorable. The video doesn’t work for me, does someone else have an alternate link?
Aha, I love how Jung Yonghwa refers so much to “towel guy” and that Hongki is so close to Jang Geunsuk.
How can a whole cast be so charming and adorable? I think this is why I enjoy the show so much, you can tell that everyone really gets along and is putting forward their best effort.
“Please don’t watch IRIS.” HA!
@JB – GAHHHH!!! that just killed me right there, in a good melt-my-heart sort of way, of course! I wasn’t expected THAT little kissy-smoochy CF after having that one JGS/Go Ara Etude House dancing CF embedded into my mind! O_O;; kekeke
THANK YOU!
btw- I really wish I could see these interviews being conducted.. I already feel the bright atmosphere reading it, it would be AWESOME to be able to see it live.
(:
Things like this really make me wish I could be a 연애인.. I really wouldn’t mind spending nearly 24 hours a day with this crew! People must seriously become really close after shooting dramas and movies..
Youtube links for the two clips:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0mK2TPRBYk0
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nkBa3l2Ifk
“Park Yong-hwa arrives and Shin-hye recites his line from the Towel Scene.”
LOL! Javabeans, don’t you mean ‘Jung’ Yong-hwa, not ‘Park’ Yong-hwa?
ahhh…i want more interviews about this drama >.<
Watching BTS clips, I see more flirting between Shinhye and Yonghwa.
Hongki is like in love with Geunsuk, haha.
LOL forever @ please don’t watch Iris.
LOL that KOONG JJAK thing is ADORABLY HILARIOUS!! i wish i could see that on video haha
PSH & JGS are so cuteeeee<3333! they're so flirty.
I'm gonna be so sad when this drama ends ): </3
"Please don’t watch IRIS." HAHA.
What an adorable interview
thank you for translating all this! I love the ending: Please don’t watch IRIS.
looks like despite the lack of sleep, all four are having fun and have great chemistry. and this line from JGS particularly struck me: “Um… It’s the fairy-tale-like story of young, beautiful kids. At some point, I’m sure I’ll change and go more macho, and my body will probably change. I want to pick out what the current, 23-year-old Jang Geun-seok looks like now, in this best time of life, the most beautiful time…” for the past few years, it felt like JGS is trying to see older than he is. nice to see him embrace his young age here and to make the most out of it!
I hope by the end of the series, Mi-Nyeo and Yoo Heyi can be somewhat friends. I bet that Yoo Heyi falls in love with the real Minam by the end. maybe he’ll get plastic surgery like Hwanhee to make himself look manlier.
they’re just to adorable,,
only 6 eps leftT_T
yes, you’re right maybe they have just dated hahahaha
it’s so hard to separate acting and real life
thanks JB
the little video clip of the cast interacting is adorable. their chemistry seems so genuine and they are able to joke around and play off each other. the filming must be so much fun!!
also, Shin-hye has the BEST JOB in the world (for the next 3 weeks anyway)!!!!!
I’m falling in love with all four of them!
Thank you, my dear crack-dealer, for delivering this wonderful interview.
So JGS does think PSH is ‘Renaissance-like’ …hmm…kekeke
omgosh, PSH and JGS are so adorable together! it makes my heart flutter! they should date! wowwwwww amazing chemistry! i wonder if he really means it when he says “renaissance like..” hahah SO CUTE.. GET TOGETHER
Geun-seok and Shin-hye just have so much chemistry together. This is the second drama that i love the whole main cast. They are just so cute together.
I wanted more Yong-hwa parts, lol.
Thanks for the post!! Can’t wait for the next episode!!
Ooh, thanks for this, Sarah!
” It’s the fairy-tale-like story of young, beautiful kids.”
My exact sentiments. It’s a fairy tale, it’s escapist fare, it’s awesome and magical!
To the four members: I’m not watching IRIS (yet), keke.
Thanks JB for the fix!
It’s good to see that they all get along and are having fun! Imagine spending so much time together with people you can’t stand…
I think it’s such a great project for young actors and entertainers…it’s true, as PSH said in a previous interview, she always had to play older roles, so being able to actually play young people when you’re young, that should be so much fun and yes, the best time of their life.
I thought it was interesting how she changed from thinking SW would be more her type in her previous interview to falling for TK now. Noone can resist TK! Not even HK! He just grows on you and you can’t help it!
I will be very sad when this drama ends, and as PSH said, it will feel empty. They really became part of our lives for these past few weeks! That’s the great accomplishment!
Thank you YAB for some of the best time of my current life too!
Ok, I’m sounding pathetic now…I did have some good times too beyond YAB, I’m just thankful I regained some youth watching this show!
This should help tide me over till Wednesday night.
I just can’t seem to get my sisters to watch this one no matter how I rave about it due to YB’s premise. When they ask me about the storyline, I usually lose them at “Its about a boy band and a girl who disguises herself as a boy to join the band.” I’m going to have to do a powerpoint presentation on its merits.
@asianromance
“I hope by the end of the series, Mi-Nyeo and Yoo Heyi can be somewhat friends. I bet that Yoo Heyi falls in love with the real Minam by the end.”
I’ve thought of that plot too which will be somewhat like Twelfth Night.
i agree JGS and PSH should date already.. all that flirting is going to waste.
anyway, i love the interview. as always thanks JB :]
“Basically, my principal reaction to the interview was, “Jang Geun-seok and Park Shin-hye, just date already!!” Seriously, it seems like they’re always flirting, and it’s too cute.”
LMFAO
I didnt’ think it was possible to fall more in love with this cast. But I do. I do. I do. I do.
Ahh my heart hurts to know that they are not getting the acknowledgement they deserve ie ratings.
It has been the best drama in over 2 years. I’m not exaggerating.
I can not wait for the lovey dovey scenes between TK and MN.
oh wednesday, please come faster
omg i wish it was subbed! there are sooo many clips on youtube but only a handful are subbed TT^TT. but guys you shud really watch the behind the scene clip of the bed scene! its sooo cute and JGS & PSH are both having a laugh in between takes lol. =D. obsessed with this drama! cant wait till friday so i can watch episode 11 and 12!!!!
OMG!
Park Shin Hye and Jang Geun Suk DO flirt like crazy!!
I watched that BTS clip where they were doing the fantasy sequence on the bed and even then, he was like “OMG, Park Shin Hye likes me!”
They’d make SUCH an adorable couple!
YAB team, FIGHTING!!!
cutttteeeeeeeeee
@crayon
“Watching BTS clips, I see more flirting between Shinhye and Yonghwa.
Hongki is like in love with Geunsuk, haha.”
I agree . Hong Ki seems to have the biggest man-crush on JGS.
HIGH CUT:: “Shall we end this chat here for our flower-like young men?”
All four members: “Yes, thank you. Please don’t watch IRIS. Keke.”
5 minute LOLS!!!! and the KOONG JJAK things is adooorable too <3
i'll be so sad when this drama ends, mostly coz their chemistry is really out there! …i think i'll be sad for the cast too, they look like they'd be devastated to have to separate at the end.
YAB FIGHTING!
JB, THANK YOU! Thank you so much for translating the long interview. I watched the video clips several times and could see that the bond between all four is really tight. It is nice how in the interview they talked about the uniqueness of their connection — that they recognized the importance of what they have.
I love the intimacy I sense between Hong Ki and Jang GS! They seem to genuinely adore each other, and I love how playful they are with each other.
And finally, OMG, I think it is a foregone conclusion that PSH and JGS will date, if they are not already dating! JGS has a massive crush on her! It is so freaking obvious. The “bed scene” clip is so completely and unabashedly a shouting from the rooftops “I like you” kind of moment! And it is only in the interview that now I see how much PSH likes him back. They have it bad for each other. So, so, so cute!
thank you so much for the translation! I’ve read another translation from Soompi.
They’re so close to each other & I love their nicknames LoL
All I can say is……… I can’t help but feel jealous T_T
I shouldn’t but I AM T_T but if they end up dating… I guess it’s alright since PSH is close to JGS’s ideal girl, who’s calm & feminine? something like that LoL
Hongki’s definitely got a huge crush on JGS XD I wonder how Heechul feels about that ROFL
I have mixed feelings about Hongki’s comparison of YaB cast & FTI. But it’s great that even Yong Hwa who’s new to the business got close to him immediately.
I wished there were more Yong Hwa parts too!!
“Please don’t watch IRIS..” LOL!
Love the interview, THANKS!!!
I love anything relating to YOB. Thanks again.
OMFG!! i have to thank whomever is translating this.. i really love and enjoy this movie more than ever.. most importantly the cast members.. like everyone else.. can’t wait for Wednesday and Thursday so we can watch YOUR BEAUTIFUL.. seriously, this interview thingy makes my day and helps with the waiting part
renai jang and avant hye
seriously who make a nickname for eachother if they’re not together? So cute
“Please don’t watch IRIS. Keke.”
HAHA, best closing line ever.
Ditto all … I love this cast to pieces! YB will linger in my heart and mind for a long time.
BTW, YB has generated an interesting phenomenon by contributors who unabashedly declare their ages from the younger generations–under 20s, 20-, 30-, 40-, 50- somethings. I’m a halmoni myself, way beyond the 50-somethings, and I’m just as proud as everyone else to be part of the YBA mania!
All four members: “Yes, thank you. Please don’t watch IRIS. Keke.”
Ha! That’s hilarious.
I love the cast of You’re Beautiful – they seem so cuddly and outgoing.
Thanks so much for translating this! Totally loved this interview!
It really emphasizes the fact that the drama is so addictive purely because of the real comraderie and chemistry between the cast. You can feel they’re having fun…so much so that it doesn’t even seem like acting…:)
I’m totally loving this drama!!! Wish it would never end!
KKOONG JJAK!
lol this cast is hilarious, I love their bonding… they even make me giddy watching their interview <3
LOL. i had to LOL at the last part.
‘please don’t watch IRIS.’
haha! and i really am not watching!
I won’t watch IRIS, I promise.
hey, I am already not watching IRIS, there is nothing to watch. Since i live inUSA, why I have to watch drama like hollywood movie. Korean drama has to have a korean style, not copying american spy movie. there are lots of american spy movie, why I have to watch korean spy movie. ke ke ke
I promise i won’t watch IRIS…so looking forward to YAB tomorrow!
Cute interview… thanks for translating it! They’re having so much fun it’s fun to watch.
I guess it’s kind of sweet (?) that they don’t really seem to understand the phrase Renaissance Man or Renaissance Woman, which is not about being domestic and feminine, but about being widely read and intellectually curious and accomplished in many different fields (ie arts, sciences, fine arts, etc).
Still, I’m glad to have something to look at while waiting for Wednesday!
waaaaaaaaah! these guys are killing me! [seriously].
specially Tae-Kyung Hyungnim!
[he resembles Jo In Sung and Lee Min Ho at times]. I should say he’s the hottest weirdo alive! bwahahahaah.
I love You’re Beautiful! It gives us complete package of drama, comedy and alot of romance! This is my most favorite drama so far next to BOF… well honestly, You’re Beautiful is much more fun than BOF since I got bored watching those unnecessary parts like Ji hoo’s grandfather and stuff. But all in all I still love it because of the F4, and Lee Min Ho aka Gu Jun Pyo! But yea, there are some scenes here in You’re Beautiful that reminded me of BOF like when Tae Kyung and Mi Nam were talking about stars… only better! TK and MN nailed that scene! waaaaaaaaah! [sorry for comparing the two dramas ehehehe].
I think the two have great chemistry and I agree to the one who posted this!
JANG GEUN SUK AND PARK SHIN HYE SHOULD DATE! … I’ve watched behind the scenes of You’re Beautiful and it seemed that the two are always flirting in a cute way . awwwww. c:
and, I ALSO PROMISE I WON’T WATCH IRIS!
OMG~~~~~~~~~~~~Their (a.n.jell) chemistry together is just so undeniable!!
I bet fans will literally faint when they perform live (which i hope they would)!
Thank you very much . .make me love YB even more.
I had a feeling these guys must all get along great, it really shows on screen. The 4 of them have great chemistry together!
Also I couldn’t get past ep 2 of Iris, it’s pretty dull.
“please don’t watch IRIS” LOL
these guys have such a great relationship it’s so addicting.
such a fun interview!!!
i love them.
YAB fighting!!!!
Cool! I’m glad they have each other’s energy to feed off of, because only 1-2 hours’ sleep is babo. Yes, babo. I think…
And, um, looks like PSH and JGS don’t have to struggle much with chemistry. HMMM… ^^
Anyway, they are doing a great job even without the hectic schedule. So, props.
Thanks for the crack-ifying post! Love it. 2 more days until my next fix… As you’ve said, this drama was perfectly cast with the right people, and it’s gratifying to know they really do get along so well in real life. Their closing line is epic–and believe me, I’m not even watching IRIS online because the first two episodes didn’t hook me.
As for Hong Ki & Heechul, I think Heechul and JGS are close (they did Inkigayo together), so I bet they all hang out and Hong Ki is the cutesy little dongsaeng to his hyungs. I like the PSH-JGS pairing, but if that ever fails, there’s always the JGS-LHK one
You’re Beautiful, fighting!
ooo… and the crack keep coming…
thank you for the interview JB…
i haven’t watched the video yet, but from reading the interview i knew they were close, like a ‘rolling rectangle’ (nice phrasing from JGS if i might add)
and LOL at the closing line…
[...] Do not hotlink, and take out only with proper credits Credits: Chosun + Dramabeans [...]
“‘Bolmae-Jung’ means ‘Yong-hwa Who Is Attractive Just As He Is’ [그대로 볼수록 매력적인 용화]. He is incredibly talented in songwriting and music, and he wrote the rap on the OST song ‘Promise’ himself.
“INCREDIBLY TALENTED IN SONGWRITING AND MUSIC”
WHAT….OMG!!!!!
Oh..this part really makes me fell in love with Yong Hwa…more and more…
(WOW,never thought i feel CRAZY over Korean Guys!!!hehehehe)
Thanks for the interview and the translations JB!! they really are so fricking cute and should totally date at this point haha. and the CF clip…OMO…omo omo omo… that’s chemistry. off to find some more CFs of them together…
Interestingly, in the previous behind-the-scenes interview, Park Shin-hye said she wouldn’t choose Hwang Tae-kyung:
Hmmmmmm I wonder what could have sparked this change?
Oh, I love this bunch! I’ll miss them after the drama wraps up. I hope they’ll perform like a real idol group, just to help us through our withdrawal period.
And yes! JGS ♥ PSH!!!
@nycgirl and crayon
I agree! Hong Ki does seem to have a non-sexual crush on JGS just as he does on Go Mi Nam.
Woooaaaaahhhhhh!!! i’m simply fallin deeper and deeper…
i’m spreading my addiction to my friends and family!
THANKS A LOT JB!!!
only three more weeks???
time really flies by when you’re enjoying. i’m going to miss them…a lot. Thank you guys!
javabeans: thanks for the news, keep them coming
@ JODRAMA 70: Yeah, Jung Yong-hwa composed some of his band’s songs too. Among the songs from C.N. Blue’s debut album (the only one that’s out so far), he wrote lyrics for “Love Revolution” and composed music & lyrics for “Just Please.”
@ soyjoy 72: It’s either because A) Hwang Tae-kyung’s character is growing on her; he’s getting less pricklier and/or B) two words: Jang Geun-suk.
“Watching BTS clips, I see more flirting between Shinhye and Yonghwa.
Hongki is like in love with Geunsuk, haha.”
THIS.though i totally shipped TK-MN onscreen, i think in real life PSH-JYH is so cute together..
though PSH-JGS is so comfortable together,i rarely see them hanging out together beside when they have scene together..and beside, the interaction looked like an oppa-dongsaeng relationship which JGS always teasing PSH..
PSH-LHK interaction is the cute playful type..they fooling around together..
but when i see PSH-JYH offscreen,it something different..it’s like PSH is always trying to have some conversation or some skinship with him..a little crush perhaps?and whenever u want to see JYH, search for PSH..u will found him..they always stick together..
i guess JGS spend a lot of his time offscreen with LHK..they are so cute together..i love how HK cutely said ‘hyung’ to him..haha..heechul must be burning with jealousy when his fav dongsaeng is now close with his friend..hongki is a cute dongsaeng..i guess that’s why heechul really likes him!
@ soyjoy 77: “but when i see PSH-JYH offscreen,it something different..it’s like PSH is always trying to have some conversation or some skinship with him..a little crush perhaps?and whenever u want to see JYH, search for PSH..u will found him..they always stick together..”
Can anyone blame her?
“i guess JGS spend a lot of his time offscreen with LHK.they are so cute together.”
I love the bromance between the two.
this is so freaking amazingly adorable i don’t even know what to do
DAMMIT SHIN-HYE AND GEUN-SUK NEED TO GET TOGETHER
i’m going to be so sad for them when the drama is over. you’re beautiful withdrawal symptoms
Love, Love the cast they are all so wonderful. But I especially like JGS and PSH they have such great chemistry which in my opinion makes the show.
Love this drama it has brightened up my life i have something to look forward to every week.
hahaha, “Please don’t watch IRIS!”
I would never! ^_^
Hmm, soyjoy’s right! hehehe.
I totally agree with 80. (mary). Their chemistry are sizzling together! I’m definitely rooting for TK/MN, SH/GS! haha They must be rather close to make such jokes with each other.
composed music & lyrics for “Just Please.”
@ ARY 76 No wonder,JUST PLEASE is my favourite in NOW aND NEVER albums..hahahaha…
Yong Hwa…Quickly go back to Japan..makes more Good Music..hehehehe
but,now…YAB gambate!!!!
Thanks so much for this… something to tie me over until Wed and stop me from going crazy with work…
Love the interaction between these young stars…being young is good… so cute.. and so much potential… They really each have their own style and appeal…
)
Wonder if JYH is really quietly cool/serious like that as he is in the photoshoot, maybe he is trying to stay “in character” SW… the other two seem more playful there…(totally age inappropriate gushing on my part
@Soy joy
I’ve been wondering that too… so curious what brought about the change?? she is acting so smitten with “Tae-Kyung” now!
@ Snikki…
and LOL at JGK slapping Hong Ki’s butt in the video… Hong Ki definitely has a crush hahaha…. their closeness is cute tho..
@36nycgrl
I’m glad i’m not the only one that thinks “Shakespeare” when watching this drama…thought i was going a bit crazy comparing a Kdrama and hong sisters’ writing to shakespeare in my head… the disguise and the deception leading to all sorts of comedy of errors… all the characters little “monologues”, the grand scenes of revelation… is really of “Shakespearean Proportions”
Also totally understand how the storyline when you tell it in a few sentences won’t really draw someone to watch the drama.. it sounds so cliche and cheesy..but it’s really so much more than “Its about a boy band and a girl who disguises herself as a boy to join the band.” They are missing out!
I’m surprised it’s ok for them to publish them saying “Don’t watch Iris” publicly… I thought it’s pretty funny tho…
#72 soyjoy — good point. what made the change? i think love is a-blooming…
i’m actually stuck on ep5 of YB and waiting to just watch the entire thing in a marathon. but i’ve seen some BTS. (i’m actually watching Smile,You) all that flirting is entertaining to watch.
#60 reluctantbutaddicted
“I guess it’s kind of sweet (?) that they don’t really seem to understand the phrase Renaissance Man or Renaissance Woman, which is not about being domestic and feminine, but about being widely read and intellectually curious and accomplished in many different fields (ie arts, sciences, fine arts, etc). ”
actually i was thinking the same thing. but because of their chemistry and such cuteness, i convinced myself that I was the one who does not understand “renaissance man/woman” hahaha.
thank you for this post, JB. you rock, as usual.
I’ll miss them too… 6 more episodes of watching them together. It will be bittersweet saying goodbye to these 4 adorable people and their characters….
It’s kinda funny. Whenever I watch a BTS of Minami, I feel like watching the actual ANJELL. Hongki seems to be a lot like his character, as do JGS and JYH. PSH is like the bolder Minyeo, but still has the cheeky cute Minyeo style. All in all, it feels like the actors are playing themselves, to some extent.
I woke up this morning with the worst YAB withdrawal. Later I switch on my laptop and with YAB OST playing on the b/ground, I click on this page (Dramabeans is now officially my first site to go when online). And there it was, my dose to survive until tomorrow! I’m so excited, and somehow felt a bit relieved to read another news about YAB. It’s like, ok, now I can breathe again. What can I say, I’m an addict. Haha. Thank you JB for the translation of the interview! Great job as usual!
All four members: “Yes, thank you. Please don’t watch IRIS. Keke.”
i love their teamwork!!! i’m going to miss them so much…you know why their ratings aren’t that good? i’ts because their viewers are mostly living outside Korea…
actually, they’re good and hilarious!!!
To all koreans….Please don’t watch IRIS!!! haha…love it!!!
I know they should just srsly go out 4 reals….lol they just look adorable 2gether & cnt deny their chemistry JGS and PSY !!!!
“pls dnt watch Iris” was funny…havent seen it and will prolly see it after YB wraps up just 2 see all the hype.
I wish they would extend YB!!!!!
Coz of YB i anticipate wednesday/thursday now…as in cnt wait 4 weekend 2 be over hehehehe ill be sooo sad when its over
lmao. ‘please dont watch IRIS. lollllll!!!
GAHH!!!I love GEUNSEOK and SHINHYE!JGS such a flirty! hehhehe
Javabeans!!!
LOVE YOU FOR TRANSLATING THIS!
AND I WANT TO GIVE THE WHOLE CAST A BIG HUG!
I think they’ll all feel lonely when they finally end this show… so… the should reunite for what we have been demanding all along…
A REAL A.N.JELL CONCERT! Woo hoo!
I do feel bad for UEE though. She has done an amazing job so far and she is the same age as these guys and they do have quite a few scenes together, so I wonder why the four never warmed to her. In the BTS for ep 9 in the club, in that one scene when all five are sitting at the tables, you can see the four of them joking (and JGS and PSH obviously flirting-bantering-back-and-forth even though they are at diff tables) and UEE kind of looks unhappy sitting there, left out.
But I guess some personalities click and others don’t…
It’s so interesting to see the BTS of UEE;s supposed kiss with JGS and the BTS between PSH and JGS. It is so obvious how much JGS is smitten with PSH! He was so professional and polite with UEE!
@ 93 Nom_kitten
Do you have the youtube link for the BTS between Uee and JGS and PSH you are talking about? =D
@94
here you go,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7KLY9PN6wI
I can’t find the TK and UEE “kiss” BTS!
All four members: “Yes, thank you. Please don’t watch IRIS. Keke.” –> Don’t worry guys I don’t watch IRIS. LOL!
The video clip was so cute. It’s a great way to start my afternoon.
Aaw.. they’re so cute together. It’s going to be sad for them when it is over. I’m really enjoying this drama, and they don’t have to worry about me watching Iris.
@ Nom_Kitteh
Kam sang mi da!!!
No worries, I have faith in the power of the fans in this comment blog, someone will post it up later =D =D
@Nom_Kitteh and Kryin
Is this the one?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yj8_Zpn9iVs
Aha! Their lips actually touched! Around 1:15…
lol
love the interview.
JGS AND PSH
PSH AND JYH
JGS AND LHK love their bromance too cute
they are so cute all of them together
KOONG JJAAK
After reading the various articles, comments by YAB addicts, watching BTS, I’ve come to the following conclusion:
All four (TK, SW, Jeremy and MN) have a crush on each other.
I guess all 4 must date each other.
Feel bad for UEE. She is gonna miss out on all the fun.
LOL. Pardon my silliness, it had to be said.
oh yes also I want to say that even tho i like JYH but I’m LOVING your brother Jung Kyung-ho in Smile,You lol
cute interview!
lol @ 101!
omg how can anyone not LOOOVE them?? all of them are super adorable and funny! they are just soo cute together and i love JGS and PSH’s flirting
loved the last line too “don’t watch IRIS” ahaha
absolutely adorable!
Thank you!
thanks KB for my crack dose. i sure hope this lasts until wednesday rolls in.. seriously, i think this drama would always be remembered by the 4 cast as the fun drama that they loved.
don’t worry YAB, i am not watching IRIS while YAB is still on, I can watch it probably next year..
YAB has my full support, and I think I am going to crown it as my no.1 drama of all time. it already won by a landslide the no. 1 drama of the year for me.
HAHAHA! I LOVE their chemistry together!! And the end when they said “Please don’t watch Iris”…HILARIOUS! They seem like a fun group in real life.
OMG . This is the episode 11 preview .
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2TgmrYvjSwg
OMG . Let my heart be still .
@onemorepls: hahaha, you’re a brave one to say that amidst a wave of excitable YB-ers. But I totally agree. ^_*
@thankyou: yes, they should! lols, A.N.Jell really are too cute together, and it’s wonderful to see casts bond like that – it stretches the drama into the real world.
It’s funny but I find the BTS of this drama to be more endearing and intriguing than the drama itself. After watching PSH and JGS acting around each other, I definitely think there’s some ambiguity with their relationship. lols. Love it.
Thanks jb for this post! I really love you’re beautiful. Anjell seem really close and I agree with you that JGS and PSH should date!!! They’re such a cute couple! ^_^
And is there a video for this whole interview? Not the video posted above. I hope there is so that I can see their expressions while they answer the questions..hahahahaha!
thank you Ash @108.. and can i just say to all you fans out there, I looove all your cute and funny comments.
Thanks so much for the interview.
I love these kids, especialy with their energy and enthusiam.
PSH & PGS have so much darn chemistry, it’s very endearing.
It’s as if they were a real group especially with the “KOONG JJAK” thing.
YAY! YAB!
OMG the preview!!!
@ Ash -108 OMO OMO OMO…. AHHHHHHH Why is this week going so slow! Can’t WAIT to see this episode. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
And javabeans I couldn’t agree with you more. Those two need to be dating because they are freaking adorable together in real life. I love it.
Unexpected but awesome, You’re Beautiful has definitely been my drama crack this year.
omg i love them MORE!!!!!!!!!!!
i really enjoyed reading the interview. Thanks for sharing with us dramabeans!
Tell me if I’m reading too much between the lines. but it seems like the drama is playing out in real life.
Yong-hwa likes Shin-hye but Shin-hye and Geun hyuk likes each other.
“Yong-hwa: “I like good-hearted girls. Someone who doesn’t lie, who shows her emotions on her face… I like Go Mi-nam, too. Since I’m Shin-woo.” (This is after Geun-seok making reference to liking Shin-hye. And Yong-hwa also said “…too”)
Yong-hwa (with a special smile): “I’d have to take care of her. Because I’m Shin-woo.” ”
He’s using his character as a cover up to answer the question. Understanding this, Shin-hye shut him down as to not give him false hope.
Geun-seok: “What if Park Shin-hye asked to date you?” (He used this question to see Shin-hye’s reaction mainly)
Shin-hye (suddenly solemn): “That will not happen.”
Poor guy. That’s just my assessment from the interview. crazy? or right on point?
I’m in the very peculiar position of shipping two people in real life. That’s never happened to me before, but Jang Geun-seok and Park Shin-hye are way too cute for words! Even without video, you can tell they’re adorable. (And then there’s that smoking hot CF. We just adds a whole other level to things.)
As for the preview… DAMN!
Wednesday never seemed so far away.
@116: Omg. After reading what you said… maybe that is the case. @_@
Or maybe they’re just playing around too…
Early this week i promised myself to try and avoid watching the preview.
But darn!
The preview made my heart burst! Thanks #108 Ash!
Preview Ep. 11 is out!
There is a kiss, no, its two!!

se you soon!
the vid is cuteeee and the interview too. i don’t know if i’m reading too much between the lines or whatever, but JGS and PSH seriously seem to have Something Going On.
i for one hope it’s a good “something”!
Your timing is impeccable, javabeans! Crack is just what I needed tonight
@17, I wanna become a celebrity too for that reason.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a spunky and charming cast, everyone is just so adorable.
Love the interview. The cast have such great chemistry especially JGS and PSH they are amazing hot together.
Thank you for posting this interview.
@93
“It’s so interesting to see the BTS of UEE;s supposed kiss with JGS and the BTS between PSH and JGS. It is so obvious how much JGS is smitten with PSH! He was so professional and polite with UEE!”
I’ve been following Uee in We Got Married and what I can see is that she’s not the kind who is bubbly and open with MEN she has just come to know.It took a while to see her warming up to her fake husband on the show.Whereas it’s different when it comes to the LADIES,on the set of 4Tomorrow’s CF/MV she was quick to be chummy and playful with the other 3 girls(BEG’s Gain,4Minutes’ HyunAh and Kara’s Han Seung Yeon.So I guess it applies the same way with the cast of YAB too;friendly with PSH but polite and profesional with the other guys.
And I SOO agree with what you said about the difference between the two BTS!LOL I was thinking what a consummate pro JGS was with Uee during the fake kiss BTS,but how PERSONAL was the fooling around with PSH,and on the bed nonetheless with PSH.
Ahh..just saw preview of Ep.11,and I’m soo hyped up for it!
as for me i think that LHK has a big admiration for JGS. like a brother. someone who’s been in the industry for a long time already. since the start i can see the chemistry between PSY and JGS. as for YW, i can see him a silent type person, even in some BTS you can really see that.
YAB FIGHTING!!!!
love this drama…cant wait for wednesday to come..but sad in my country only on thursday noon can i read JB recaps…
love JGS n PSH on and off screen…..and LHK n JYH
buts PSH might not consider to date JGS in real life…cause JGS so popular with a girls now..PSH might died of jealousy….hahhahha
but hopefull this pair will hooked in real life(finger croosed) – doing cfs and dramas together again …………..;P
omg a post on YB! was not expecting it!
so happy.
and yes PSH AND JGS should totally go together. heh. they make such a cute and wonderful couple!
“please don’t watch IRIS ” haha….
but i will watch IRIS first then You’re beautiful secondly…
A YB post! And a preview!! *is ecstatic*
I seriously love this cast…normally I don’t warm to one or two, but these guys are just awesome! I definitely think that the great chemistry they have offscreen contributes to the acting they do. Normally I stay off k-dramas cos the cast are always older and serious, so I love this fun, young cast and story!
PSH, like someone said above, you have the BEST JOB in the world right now. *is jealous* That said, GET TOGETHER WITH JGS ALREADY!! You guys are so cute together, I’ve never shipped a couple before (unless Ron/Hermione count XD) but you guys are an exception!
HongKi is so devoted to his GeunSuk hyung, lol. He follows him around all the time and mentions him in almost every interview, haha! Admit it, you totally have a crush on him! Oh I hope UEE interacts with them soon! She seems nice in real life.
I’m not watching Iris! Not even one episode!!
Thanks so much for the translations JB!
I’m excited for Wednesday to arrive.
omg!! they’ve become really close!! i’m so jealous of all of them
they’re so cute together and shinhye looks like she’s so hyped up in the clip!!
i’ll make sure i watch each and every episode of you’re beautiful!!!
thanks for sharing
I am loving this more and more. No I am now truly addicted to this. If I am not reading the soompi forums, I am rewatching the previous episodes. I don’t care that I am at work. Good thing I have my own little corner and so I am pretty isolated and can watch to my heart’s desire. My co-workers are just baffled that I am always in good spirit. It’s because of You’re Beautiful. In the interview, JGS and PSH seems to really click. Definitely the connection between the two is undeniable. JGS should just be bold enough and tell PSH that he really likes her. He is soooo flirting with her. I still remember the bed and taser scene when he was incessantly teasing her to admit that PSH likes him…..love that BTS by the way……love the camaraderie that this cast is showing……especially love their last bit DON’T WATCH IRIS. Without them telling me this I’m already a loyal fan plus, IRIS may have the ratings but YOU’RE BEAUTIFUL definitely has the mania following which will truly catapult this young cast to probably HALLYU status. They may not have that strong a following in Korea but they definitely have fanatics all over Asia and probably the world. JANG GEUN SUK & PARK SHIN HYE FIGHTING!!!!! A.N. JELL BASYA!!!!!!
Thanks again JB for giving my dose. I love reading articles about these adorkable cast of YB. JGS and PSH are so flirty. Their chemistry is amazing on and off the camera. I really hope they will date and do another CF.
@Fiona, welcome to the club. I myself, turned 50 . I’m not ashamed to admit that I’m a fan of YB. You can’t help to love this drama …. it’s perfect!!
I watched the preview for ep.11, all I can say is wow. Hope tomorrow is wednesday already.
ah JB you are trully my one and only awesome “CRACK” dealer in the world!
Just when i started to think YAB can’t be more adorable as a drama, it proved me wrong!.
I agree with most of you here, JGS & PSH should just date already! they’re are freaking adorable as an individual and as a couple on screen they’re are insanely cute!
I love all 4 of them.. it would be cute if A.N.JELL can perform in a stage like inkigayo as an actual idol group, even if it’s only a one time thing.
oh please! there has got to be a way to increase those 16 episodes into 20! but how????????????
i wish that i can date JGS in real life…but …JGS is all the way for PSH only…wow wat a weird imagination…hahhahr…besides i older than him by 5 years..;(
YAB totaly crack my life…wat a paintful to wait for next epi..
LOLLLL. i’m laughing so much aft watching the vid and reading the interview!! they are just SO ADORABLE. Thanks JB for translating it to eng! can’t wait for wed!!!
omg! lurve it!
Thanks so much JB!!! Unfortunately I became so giddy after reading this…
and now even more giddy after seeing the preview for episode 11!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
(spoilers….
KISS SCENE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
@116 ewin
I totally had the same assessment of the interview as you. Which I find depressing, since I’m so crushing over JYH. But I agree with @77 soyjoy assessment of PSH-JYH off-screen relationship too. I find that she’s more shy towards JGS who keeps teasing her, but she initiates a lot of contact with JYH – talking, touching…
Love it.
This is heartbreaking: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OV_37UvGu58
Sigh… sorry, I’m new to this Second Lead Syndrome…
#79 \
“this is so freaking amazingly adorable i don’t even know what to do
DAMMIT SHIN-HYE AND GEUN-SUK NEED TO GET TOGETHER”
I’m with you- so much energy coming out of YB that I’m shaking with it!
#72
) A slightly cynical part of me is saying it’s fan service, we all WANT to hear PSH believes in her character’s MN’s choice of TK/JGS. 
Ah well, fan service or not I squealed at it, and that’s good enough for me!
I noticed that too… I wonder if in addition to the two reasons (TK’s improving as a character and JGS is irresistable as a co-actor… and goodness knows I WANT TO BELIEVE it’s those!
#35
“Noone can resist TK! Not even HK!”
I second that one too!
And to all of you who are clamouring “For crying out loud, can PSH and JGS just get on with it and date for real?!”
I’ll add
“Please. Pretty please? Pretty please with a _cherry_ on top?!”
Yeah, ok, even cynical as I am, and knowing full well, actors and actresses need to play it up for the camera, I’m still not-so-secretly hoping that there’s such a thing as an on-screen crush and that you can’t really have your characters be so much in love and not at least have the smallest, wee’est, tiniest crush on the other person.
Even if it doesn’t ever come out, still it would be a bizarre sort of comfort to me that PSH and JGS inspire all this shaking and trembles from us and are not entirely immune themselves!
Wow!
Really cool team dynamics!
“All four members: “Yes, thank you. Please don’t watch IRIS. Keke.”
Oh don’t worry at all! I’m not going to watch IRIS! Hahahaha this last sentence is really cute!
@77 Soyjoy: hey not really.
There are other videos showing more interaction between JGS/LHK and PSH. I don’t know, JYH too into his shinwoo character? He seems to be cool and all in real life too, unlike JGS and LHK, who are totally naughty and fun lol.
And I totally agree that there is something on between Jang Geun Suk and Park Shin Hye!~ Did you all watch the behind the scene for the “bed” scene? JGS was totally flirting with PSH HAHAHA LOL. (:
Lee hong ki is sooooooooooooo cute too! Especially when he tries to stick to JGS hahaha.
OMG I JUST WATCHED THE EP 11 PREVIEW.
SPOILER ALERT: tae kyung is going to kiss minam! Argh, I cannot stand it! It is so hot when tae kyung grabs minam and kisses her.
SO HOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT.
Agree to all the comments above, JGS AND PSH sure have chemistry, they should totally date =D!
AND I LOVE TAE KYUNG. SO MUCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
CAN’T WAIT TO WATCH EP 11. KISS KISS KISS!!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95xI0zl_P0I
i m so excited for the kiss too
I’m impressed with this young cast. Despite the stress from low ratings and tough screening schedule, not to mention the lack of sleep, their acting has not suffered and they are in extremely good mood. And it’s good to see how close they all are. I think that does make a positive difference to the level of acting.
I like what JGS said about how women would die before admitting that they like the bad boys. I kinda like my man a little wild, not all goody and conforming. PSH is right, TK’s character just grows on you.
@77 soyjoy
“it’s like PSH is always trying to have some conversation or some skinship with him..a little crush perhaps?and whenever u want to see JYH, search for PSH..u will found him..they always stick together.”
Am I and r (#141) the only ones that agree with you?? I’ve been mentioning it but nobody catches on because I think everyone prefers the JGS/PSH pair. From the rehearsal BTS and pool BTS to the shopping in Myongdong BTS and even the High Cut video, they have this cute chemistry.
@ewin
I think JYH like PSH and JGS knows it and may be fishing PSH’s reaction. JYH has started to get shy when she starts playing around and touching him, which can be a sign. And we know guys talk if they are close so he might have told JGS.
And yes, people in Korea, don’t watch “Iris”!!
you know what, they actually said that if the ratings will be a success they will extend it to eps.20 but IRIS is ohgod!!!!!. whatever. i hate it.
( but YOU’RE BEAUTIFUL is the BEST drama so far this 2oo9, 
my god the preview for eps.11 is MYGOD!!!! EXCITED
this is so amusing and funny
hong ki is freakin cute!!!!!and they all sound so close!!!
i love it!!!
and “Please dont watch IRIS”
wahahahahahahahah
The kiss with JGS on Ep 11 may have changed her heart…wahahahaha…
I think JGS is a natural flirt, but he’s the type of guy who looks for that special girl…wahahaha…I LOVE THIS DRAMA!
Geun-seok: “I think I’d feel burdened. If we dated, I’d feel like she might get dirtier.”
Trust me love, most people here would give an arm and a leg for you to make them feel dirtier.
“Please don’t watch IRIS..”
that’s the funniest way to end an interview… sooooooo cute!
to my crack dealer…. thank you for this.
you are making the wait for wednesday some what bearable…barely….
Ha ha I love that part when yong hwa says “no matter how much i cover her with the towel …” hehe
@Fran
Geun-seok: “I think I’d feel burdened. If we dated, I’d feel like she might get dirtier.”
Ever get the sense JGS is a bad boy in real life. He must have gotten a little soiled by all his noona girlfriends.
Although I think JGS and PSH is a lovely and cute couple to watch, I do agree that JHW and PSH appeared to be closer in BTS.
Regarding the bed scene BTS, you would not openly flirt with your girl if you really have something going on with her. So it is probably for fan service…….loh.
===============================
Geun-seok: “What if Park Shin-hye asked to date you?” JOKING…..
Shin-hye (suddenly solemn): “That will not happen.” SHY SHY SHY……
Yong-hwa (with a special smile): “I’d have to take care of her. Because I’m Shin-woo.” WOW….EXPRESSING INTEREST………
===============================
So JGS is trying to help PHS and JYH lah……
I suspect JGS’s taste on girl may be very “special”…….that’s my guess.
Thanks JB for filling our emptiness before Wednesday.
Can the kiss be hotter than the preview for ep 11?….Let me imagine now….
i can feel the love vibes from hongki to geun suk lol!
their ending sentence was so cute. youth <3
[...] เอามาจาก dramabeans NewsDrama Movie Music [...]
Thanks JB for translating this! The four of them really have SUPERB chemistry. The interview looks so lively and fun!
I wish we can see the full interview process for this. I really want to see these:
Geun-seok (suddenly): “If you want to know what it’s like [in a sudden booming voice], KOONG!”
The three others (In perfect order, as though they were waiting for it): “JJAK!”
and
All four members: “Yes, thank you. Please don’t watch IRIS. Keke.”
It will be so funny!!! If anyone has the full interview clip that has all these, please share!
OMG! The moment I reached home, I went straight to dramabeans and ta-dah…
an article on YB! WOW!
But my webpage can’t load the video posted. Anyone know where can I watch this video?
And OMG!!!! (again)…i saw the preview of ep 11… TK kissed MN…
I can’t believe it…..*SCREAM*
And what’s going on between TK’s mum n MN’s aunt?
TK’s mum can’t be MN’s mum right??? NO! NO! NO!
OMG!!! I can’t wait for ep 11~~~
I’m so addicted to drama to extent that I thought of buying the phone they used. OMG!!!
LOL at the post script HAHAHHA
I have a question, though. Is the translation from a video interview or a written article in the magazine? I wish they had a video interview for this. It must be a lot of fun watching them.
Thanks JB for the translation!
This interview will surely give me a strength to wait till tomorrow and after that. I really wish Park Shin Hye and Jang Geun suk would really date in real life. They both together creates a magic. And i love Hong ki and yong hwa too.
And the way Park SHin Hye and Jang Geun Suk were flirting was really cute. THough i am a bit sad because this drama is going to end soon, I wish they could extend the episode (i don’t know how many times i have mentioned about extending the episode in other posts too…but i guess they won’t huh! I am so going to miss them a lot.)
Love this drama and yeah like they say , “DON’T WATCH IRIS”, hahaha…i haven’t watched Iris not even one episode, my eyes are all set on ‘YOU’RE BEAUTIFUL’. (I hope i am not sounding too obsessed).
AHHH!!!!
JGS LIKES PSH!!! He hinted that PSH fits his “Renai” style girl….
:D:D
THEY SHOULD JUST DATE ALREADY!!!
i hope they do after the show ends! or before it ends!
I wont be surprised… after all they are actor/actress and not idols!!! So they have more control over their lives!
i love this drama…seriously all four of them are so cute..like them a lot!! can’t wait to know what happen next on the drama..^^
@ash
ooohhh.. thanks for that link! I think my heart stopped and my jaw dropped.. i can’t wait! now wednesday seems farther away..
this interview is sooo cute! thanks jb!
rena jang and avant hye.. opposites attract! lol
looking forward to ep11 after the preview too! ahhHH this is insane.. YB is taking over my life. everything revolves around Wed/Thurs…
but i do concur that jyh and psh have this chemistry off-screen that makes me a little shy to watch.. not like the open flirting between jgs and her which just makes u grin widely =P
thank you for sharing this drama with me, because of you i woudn’t experience this crazee…even if it makes me feel old and wishing to be young again.
i just cant wait for the next episodes…..
how come you dont rave about iris? how good is the story compare to yb….
Hmmm…JGS and PSH flirting seems a bit like fan service to me, to promote their characters (which I don’t mind at all!); but they ARE terribly cute and seem to really have a great friendship.
For me, I feel more of a vibe between Hongki and PSH in the interview and vid clips of them—understated, but there. I’m not shipping in any direction for the real life actors…that’s just the feel I get.
Any takers?
Maybe I’m alone thinking that.
FYI, the preview for the next ep on sbs’s netv….sqeeheeeeeeal. I don’t want to spoil anyone who doesnt want to be spoiled….but seriously, o m f g
@155nycgrl: Definitely.
Geun-seok: “If you ask women about liking bad boys, they will mostly deny it, but it’s true. They’d die before admitting it though.”
He is evidently of the “treat them mean, keep them keen” variety. Love it! Love it! Love it! Guilty as charged. I don’t deny it at all….
-Fran from the “M” camp
salamat JB
(smiling) I’m speechless.
All four members: “Yes, thank you. Please don’t watch IRIS. Keke.”
*wink* *wink*
That’s one good, funny interview!
aawww…..so sweet….^-^
pls dont watch IRIS….lmao!!!!
although i prefer MN-TK tandem for YB, i think PSH and YH have a chemistry in real life, from the BTS, they seem to be always together or sitting near each other… and i think Hongki has a crush on JGS… he-he-he! Just kidding!
Thanks javabeans for the translation of the interview. really appreciate any tidbits bout YB to get me through in between episodes.
Dont watch Iris! he-he-he! Consider it done!
Just saw preview 11.
Looks promising.

I loved the last phrase! They are so cute together.
That CF you posted up – AHHHH. I want Geun-seok and Shin-hye together too!
The last comment: Please don’t watch IRIS… hahahaa, they’re so cute. So cute. I love the bubbly and fun atmosphere! I also LOVE how Geun-seok says Go Mi Nam, it’s perfect. The others couldn’t live up to it, you could totally tell the difference when he said it at the end..
‘”If we dated, I’d feel like she might get dirtier” — *bites lip* sounds so hot, hehehe…
Omo! They’re all so funny and comfortable w/ eachother! it’s so awesome how they’re so down to earth and quirky! haha!! thnks for translating this interview!!!
i loved it when they said “Please dont watch IRIS.” LOL HILARIOUS!! I’ve never even watched it honestly..haha! GO YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!! Whoo!!!
Thats it – i think i’m in love! I’m fan girling all over the shop for Park Shin-hye & i’m lusting so hard after Geun-seok, i want him BAD!!!
Those two are soooooo cute together i could die with all the flirting (Geun-seok is a baaaaad boy…hee hee) and i love how close the four leads are to each other, its the cutest thing in the whole world!
I reeeally love this show and sad that it will end soon but dying to see whats next.
@171 FRAN
“treat them mean, keep them keen”
ROFL. Oh my FRAN, love love love that comment. I love it so much, I’m gonna steal it and use it from now on.
Thank you
OMG, no WONDERRRRRR!!!
^@ 102 onemorepls: Jung Kyung-Ho is JYH’s brother!!!!! Jung Kyung-Ho totally rocks in Smile, You!!! What cuties they are =)
JGS: “I think I’d feel burdened. If we dated, I’d feel like she might get dirtier.” Ohhh, that just sealed it for me. He’s right on that girls like bad boy personality (guilty as charged)…
And ok ok all join in the YAB fan-craze fun–I’m rooting for JGS/PSH on-screen and JYH/PSH off-screen (b/c JGS and LHK’s bromance is so endearing…heck, throw in a HeeChul and make it a luuuurve triangle!)
**Love the pride and pure excitement the cast all have for the drama, it really pushes their acting to extraordinarily cuuuuute!
@ 181 Joanne
luv ur love triangle between Hong-ki, JGS and Heechul!
I agree with very few that maybe the flirting was for fan service. JGS…I noticed flirts with his love interest be it on his drama or cfs ..a lot(from bts that fans posted and subbed). Hopefully PSH is immune or maybe used to him from working with him before cuz she flirts back.
I see her more interested with JYH cuz of her body language.
I didnt know that JYH brother is that guy in Smile. I like him too!
Lol “don’t watch IRIS”. I love the fact that they’re comfortable together!! Something tells me it’ll be hard for them to go apart now.
OMG do they get these videos subbed anywhere?
I wish they knew how many international fans their show has. Anyways, I won’t even consider watching IRIS until this is over.
I’ll take bad boy JGS for a fling or two or THREE and then JYH as the long term bf. Pretty much I’ll have my cake and eat it too.
(Whew this noona is way too naughty considering I’m already married! I hope Mr. NYCgrl won’t see this post).
Thank you i love anything to do with this drama the cast are all fantastic!!!!!
@148 yvhsien (and a few others)
Thanks.
I was thinking I might be reading too much into the PSH-JYH interaction. Or projecting my wishful thinking, since personally, I’m not really into JGS and it’s heartbreaking to watch Shinwoo in the show.. 
On top of his personality being generally the quiet, reserved type, I think unlike his castmates (who have been in front of the camera since young), JYH is not that comfortable with the camera (and the media) yet. The Korean media prefers celebs who are more savvy & attention-grabbing (cos they need material for their story). JGS, PSH & LHK are already familiar with this. We see more of him in the BTS videos because I guess he’s likely to be already comfortable with the cast & crew there. But in the High Cut BTS, it seems like the setting is controlled madness with many cameras being on at the same time and he’s not so used to the people and what he’s expected to do there.
Javabeans, sorry I forgot to say this earlier… but thanks for translating the interview
Seriously, I’ve been lurking here for years reading your recaps… I can’t believe it takes an *idol drama* to bring me out of lurkdom. <insert Tae Kyung-worthy sneer here.. heheh>
@ 155 nycgrl
“Ever get the sense JGS is a bad boy in real life. He must have gotten a little soiled by all his noona girlfriends”.
Yep. And I think he did say he is a little wild. So even though he likes a feminine girl, body and soul, he does like them not too innocent. Thus his comment about being burdened because he’ll make her dirtier. As quite a number has pointed out, I think it does take a special kind of girl to open his heart – balance between feminine and sweet with a little of a wild streak?
after reading DB commenters here, I feel that PSH does have a crush on JYH but can’t resist the bad JSG. Like he said women lub bad boys especially handsome and charming bad boy. hehehe.
Hehe, thanks for your translations.
Ever since the first episode, this is like my drug every Wednesday and Thursday. So thanks for your recaps
I think they show a really big bond, and during the clip I couldn’t help but feel they were like a huge family together. It’ll definitely be hard for me to not see them together after the drama ends. Even I couldn’t let myself think that they were just filming a drama. I do hope that Park Shin Hye does end up dating at least one of them. They remind me a lot of the SoEul couple during BOF.
lol, please don’t watch iris.
hahah love this show and these castmembers. <3
Thanks for the interview
They are a truly entertaining bunch! Their last comment is epic and really made my day.
Oh PSH, what’s a girl to do, being surrounded by so many pretty guys? Being so young, it’s like a world of possibilities. I’m not comfortable real people shipping (because 9 times outta 10 it never turns out the way I want…that’s real life after all), but my two cents is that JGS is the type of guy who lives on people liking him. Nothing more thrilling than being able to make a girl smile. I think he’d flirt with anyone, but ultimately end up with someone older. He’s really mature himself, so he’s probably the sort who’d look for someone who can understand him in that sense.
And I suppose, if PSH is anything like other girls her age, she’d definitely have some sort of reaction to JGS’s flirtatiousness. I think it’s in the way she gets much more animated and restless when she’s with JGS. But with YJH it’s probably just to get some reaction out of him. I’ve had one or two guy friends who seem to have similar personalities as YJH (but nowhere as hot as him, whhyyy), and they are always attracted to those carefree types like PSH, who they can feel comfortable with. So I’m thinking YJH likes PSH.
That being said, JGS-PSH chemistry is just awesome. It’s wonderful watching a drama when the main couple obviously clicks. I usually suffer badly from 2nd lead syndrome (or sometimes, minor couple syndrome), but I’m really enjoying the main couple in this show.
@171 FRAN
“treat them mean, keep them keen”
5 minute lols!!!!!!!!!!! BAD BOY MANTRA. lol lol lol this wins!!
Love the interview…I wonder why YAB has no good rating in Korea. This drama is awesome. I’m here in the Philippines and I’m watching it. I love all the casts and storyline. kamsahamnida to all the cast and crew.
The interview was nice and great. Tanx
They really hit off very well! Like a bunch of very very very close buddies ! Love their attitudes totally <3 The ending line was funny, but I watch both keke.
“Please don’t watch IRIS. keke” Are they for real! too funny! hahahaha =))))
pwaahahahah!!! “PLEASE DONT WATCH IRIS!” FTW!!!!!
cant imagine i will be hearing these words from hongki
Hong-ki: “I like fun girls. Someone where we build up a lot of memories and affection by going through a lot of problems and incidents together.”
awww THAT’S SO SWEET!
lol this is freakin funny! i dont feel odd upon hearing go minam called yong hwa “HYUNG” lol!
LMAO I just couldn’t stop laughing!!! I love the end of the interview “‘The most ‘flower-like’ time. We’re flower buds, and hyung, you’ve bloomed. Keke.’” Hong Ki is so funny XD.
And “Please don’t watch IRIS” was hilarious XD!!!
Thanks for the interview!
Thanks so much for translating this. Could they be any more adorable? I love to watch stuff like this when the people really get along. I mean, I haven’t seen that many of them, but it must happen that sometimes the actors don’t get along at all, even if that video probably wouldn’t be released- which is when the acting reeeeally comes into play.
It somehow makes me happy to know that they’re actually having as much fun behind the scenes as it looks like they are on the show. (Also, it’s totally like the love rectangle is happening in real life!)
“Yes, thank you. Please don’t watch IRIS. Keke”
Ahahaha. this made me laugh.
Anyway.. the video doesn’t work anymore. any idea where i can watch the interview?
LOL!
I can’t believe they actually finished the interview saying
“Don’t watch IRIS, pleas!” HAHAHAHAA!
They are a truly amazing team.
ah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I LOVE THEM !!!
What was the script of them for? The one where she talks about analogy, &nd soo on. It’s not recorded? I wanna see it >.<'
i reallly enjoying reading this intervies,….they all are super cute…
Jung Yong Hwa and Park Shin Hye are together? Dating?
wahh loved the interview<3
and i have not and will not watch iris anytime soon!
I’m confused. The clip doesn’t show Jang Geun seuk talking to Park Shin Hye. Is there another link to the interview that transcripted here?
I want to see the flirting!!!
Thank you for sharing this!
I just want to ask, though, what is that “Go Mi-nam.. ” line of Tae Kyung’s that Shin-hye, Yong-hwa, and Hong-ki are impersonating in the video?
