Story told by a victim of school violence about Park Bo Gum, who is filming a drama with IU, draws attention 

The issue of school violence is attracting attention again due to the popularity of Netflix’s “The Glory”, and the story of actor Park Bo Gum during middle school resurfaces.

On February 8th, a post written by a victim of school violence about Park Bo Gum was shared on a Korean online community.

In the post, A, who stated that they were middle school classmates with Park Bo Gum, said, “I was in the same Class 14 as Park Bo Gum in the first year. I was an outcast in my class at the time. I was bullied by everyone, but Bo Gum was the only one who befriended me. I still remember that time. I was very grateful.”

A said, “After that, even after becoming a high school student, I was grateful that he always recognized me and remembered me whenever I passed by. After Bo Gum succeeded as an actor, I was also very happy. Just as you were the only one in my class who didn’t bully me, I’m always on your side even if people in this world curse at you,” cheering for Park Bo Gum. 

Netizens left comments, saying, “It’s against the law to have such a good personality with a perfect face”, “I always knew he is a nice person”, “Park Bo Gum has a handsome face and a good heart. He’s flawless.” 

Meanwhile, Park Bo Gum has been cast in Im Sang Chun’s new drama “You Have Done Well” alongside IU. “You Have Done Well” unfolds the adventure-filled life of Ae Soon, a ‘rebel’ born in Jeju in the 1950s, and Gwan Sik, a hard-working quiet man. 

IU plays Ae Soon, who dreams of becoming a poet even though she can’t even go to school, and Park Bo Gum plays Gwan Sik, who loves and respects only Ae Soon.
