These celebrities aren’t afraid to show their friendship on TV
❖ Kim Ki Bang x Lee Kwang Soo x Kim Woo Bin x Do Kyung Soo
These actors have been known for their friendship for a long time, and now they are filming a show together. However, the friendship of the ‘GBRB: Rep What You Saw’ cast is a bit unusual, as they have a big age difference but no age-hierarchy was shown. Rather, the charm of “GBRB: Rep What You Saw” is that it feels like it is an equal relationship between friends, which is different from Korean age-oriented culture.
❖ IU and Yoo In-na
IU and Yoo In-na are widely known as the “IU-Inna” duo. In particular, the two first met on SBS’s program “Heroes” in 2010 and became best friends despite the 11-year age gap.
The reason why the two became close was the common interest and IU’s maturity. Yoo In-na said, “I think that IU has grown up a lot and is very old. We have talked about too many topics that run through my life 10 years ago, and these days, we just talk about nonsense things.”
Meanwhile, IU’s affection is great to the extent that she mentioned Yoo In-na in her acceptance speech.
