"The Moon that Embraces the Sun's" Kim Yoo Jung Names Kim Soo Hyun as Her Ideal Type

During yesterday’s episode, MBC’s “Section TV” caught up with “The Moon that Embraces the Sun’s” child actress Kim Yoo Jung. When the interviewer asked who her ideal type was among the flower boys in “The Moon that Embraces the Sun,” she answered without hesitation, “Kim Soo Hyun oppa.”

Despite her love interest being child actor Yeo Jin Goo in the series, she chose adult cast member Kim Soo Hyun, piquing viewers’ interests. Kim Soo Hyun also sent him a short video message, “ Soo Hyun oppa, it’s really cold these days, but film well.” She added, “While it was hard acting in a melodrama, I really did love Lee Hwon in that moment.”

Last week, Kim Yoo Jung also humorously stated, “We don’t need [Yeo] Jin Goo oppa. Soo Hyun oppa is the best! He’s so handsome and thoughtful. Way better than Jin Goo oppa,” during an episode of MBC’s “Good Day.” 

Netizens who saw the clip commented, “Kim Soo Hyun really is the hottest actor these days,” “Awww, it’s not Yeo Jin Goo,” “She’s left the young Crown Prince,” and more.
