IU Wrote Heartwarming Letter To Yeo Jin-goo, “You’re A Friend Who Gives Shade To Others”
Singer and actress IU expressed her extraordinary affection for actor Yeo Jin-goo, who worked with her in “Hotel Del Luna”
On July 2nd, the YouTube channel “B-siders” uploaded a new video featuring a talk with actor Yeo Jin-goo.
During the talk, Yeo Jin-goo shared, “I tend to think about what I would achieve when something while reviewing new projects rather than looking at my past works while resting”, adding “I try to develop a good life because many people have loved and supported me since I was young”.
Next, Yeo Jin-goo listened to the MC read letters from senior actors who worked with him. There were letters from Shin Ha-kyun, who starred in “Beyond Evil” with Yeo Jin-goo, and Ha Jung-woo, who appeared in “Hijack 1971”.
In particular, actress IU, who was Yeo Jin-goo’s co-star in the drama “Hotel Del Luna”, sent the actor a handwritten letter expressing her sincere feelings for him. She said, “As a younger brother, Jin-goo has a fresh vibe like a green leaf, but as actor Yeo Jin-goo, he’s like the root of a big tree that I don’t know how deep his thoughts and worries can be. Although I cannot see that from the outside, I believe that anyone who has been supporting you would know how hard you have worked to keep the ground firm”.
IU continued, “Jin-goo always gives comfortable shade to people who look for you and makes the pleasant sound of leaves. Even trees sometimes need shade, so I hope you have your friends and reliable people to lean on. Of course, I’m also one of the friends who appreciate you. Sometimes, the fact that you seem to have nothing to worry about makes me feel worried. I’m sorry that I haven’t done much for you. As I’m writing this letter, many moments when I felt grateful to you come to my mind”, adding “Thank you for making me laugh with a lot of compliments every day when I lacked confidence. Thank you for pretending to make mistakes when I kept making NG scenes. Also, thank you for teaching me how strong and great kindness can be through your actions”.
Expressing her affection for Yeo Jin-goo, IU shared, “I really appreciate the time I acted with you, talked with you behind the camera and had personal chats with you outside the work. I will always look forward to you and support all the warmth, coolness, specialty, shade, cuteness, despair, silence, handsomeness, etc. that actor Yeo Jin-goo shows.”
After listening to IU’s letter carefully, Yeo Jin-goo confessed, “My writing skills are not good enough for me to respond to you. When I think of Ji-eun, I’m always curious about what more charms she can have. She’s already so talented and has diverse colors. She expressed her gratitude to me, but I was also very grateful to her. She always takes good care of people around her and this is what I want to learn from her”.
