If we are to make a quick list of the most sought-after Korean actors we love, Kim Soo Hyun and Jung Hae In would definitely be among our top picks. So imagine our delight when, in a recent interview with the cast of the hit tvN K-drama Queen of Tears, Kim Soo Hyun divulged some intriguing details about his off-screen life—including his surprising friendship with fellow Hallyu heartthrob Jung Hae In.
Kim Soo Hyun and Jung Hae In's Friendship
Talking about his past hobbies, Kim Soo Hyun candidly confessed to his former obsession with bowling, narrating how he used to "hit the gym, eat, head to the bowling alley, and stay there all day." The lifestyle naturally took a toll on his health, so he has since bid farewell to the pins in favor of a more leisurely sport: golf.

It's on the golf course where Kim Soo Hyun found a kindred spirit in Jung Hae In. Despite never sharing the screen together, the two actors have developed an unlikely friendship. Their first encounter was on the set of Jung Hae In's drama DP, where Kim Soo Hyun visited in support of his junior from the agency, Choi Hyun Wook. The Queen of Tears star reminisced, "We were both shy at first, but a passing director encouraged us to be friends. Ever since then, we've shared a strong camaraderie."
Their bond blossomed quickly, with Jung Hae In reaching out just two days after their initial meeting, inviting Kim Soo Hyun for another golf session and some post-game drinks.

The two actors have become quite close that Jung Hae In, along with two other friends, even surprised Kim Soo Hyun on the set of Queen of Tears by sending a coffee truck. In case you didn't know, in Hallyu culture, sending a food/coffee truck to an actor's filming location is a show of love and support.
