On January 15, producer Na Young-seok uploaded a video titled 'Watching Love Scout 4th Episode with Han Ji Min, the Romance Master' on his YouTube channel.
In the video, Na Young-seok and Han Ji Min discussed SBS' ongoing television series 'Love Scout'.
'Love Scout', Han Ji Min's most recent project, revolves around the romance between 'Kang Ji-yun' (Han Ji Min) and 'Yu Eun-ho' (Lee Jun Hyuk), the CEO of a head-hunting company and her secretary.
During their conversation, Na Young-seok asked Han Ji Min whether she and her co-star Lee Jun Hyuk knew each other before the series.
"No, I met him for the first time on this project. I get to meet many other actors through events like a wrap-up party for a movie. But in Jun Hyuk's case, I haven't had the opportunity to meet him before working together.", the actress remarked.
"It was before the project started. There was a photoshopped video of Jun Hyuk and me going around YouTube, and my acquaintances showed it to me. They told me, 'You two look so great together!', saying they would love to see me and the actor on the same project."
"Then, I was offered the 'Love Scout' script and learned that Jun Hyuk would be the male lead. I was surprised since it wasn't long after I saw the video of him and me. 'Is this destiny? Should I take it?', I thought to myself.", she remarked.
"Surprisingly, Jun Hyuk had little experience with romance projects. I was curious to know what his romance acting would be like. Plus, apparently, my fans wanted to see us together."
The actress smiled and added that she felt good about the series even before the filming began.
Following their initial meeting on KBS' music show 'The Seasons: Choi Jung-hoon's Night Park', the two began dating.
In August last year, Han Ji Min and Choi Jung-hoon admitted their relationship.
