Hyeri can't hide her jealousy of Park Bo Gum over When Life Gives You Tangerines' success, complains about joining Netflix late
Also read: Park Bo Gum made a request to Kim So Hyun years ago: 'Remember this when the time comes'; the story behind Good Boy casting
The trio kicked off their chat with plenty of behind-the-scenes talk from Good Boy—Bo Gum's second big project this year. The K-drama follows a group of athletes-turned-rookie cops. The three shared laughs, threw compliments around, and somewhere in between, Bo Gum casually mentioned he'd just finished watching Friendly Rivalry. He praised Hyeri for her performance, saying, 'It was so impressive yet surprising at the same time.' But instead of looking flattered, the Reply 1988 star pouted and playfully reminded him how When Life Gives You Tangerines stole the spotlight. 'We joined Netflix a bit late, and by then, Tangerines was already number one,' she said. 'But honestly, it's one of the standout works in Oppa's filmography. Everyone's just going to call you Gwan Sik now.'
In response, Bo Gum didn't downplay the success and instead thanked her for remembering the character. 'I'm grateful and honoured to have such a project in my filmography. Thank you for remembering me as Gwan-sik. Being remembered as a character is precious and meaningful for an actor.' He added, 'I hoped the story would warm the world, and I'm glad it resonated well.'
Bo Gum and Hyeri go way back to their breakout roles as Choi Taek and Go Deok Sun in the 2015 hit Reply 1988. The duo's off-screen friendship has stayed solid since, and fans got a sweet throwback recently when they showed up together at the 61st Baeksang Arts Awards—posing for a few couple shots that instantly reignited the nostalgia. Hyeri later took to Instagram, writing, 'It was such a valuable and honoured moment just to be nominated for the Baeksang Arts Daesang! I will continue to work hard in acting and repay you with an even better version of myself. Thank you so, so much!!!!'

In the later part of the conversation, Bo Gum didn't forget to pull Hyeri's leg and joked about the bump in her hair, which kept rising. He burst into laughter and suddenly called the producer to fix Hyeri's hair. 'I was looking at you and I thought you were wearing headphones.' While she got her hair fixed, the actor found a hairpin and offered, 'I'll fix your hair if it rises again.' To which his Good Boy co-star Kim So Hyun added, 'He's really good with hair.' Then Bo Gum revealed he has a certificate in hairdressing, which he earned while serving in the military. 'I got it in the military. I was a barber.' Hyeri curiously asked, 'Do you have to take an exam?' Bo Gum replied, 'You have to take an exam. You have to know how to handle hot irons and also know how to cut hair.'
