During the broadcast, MC Shin Dong-yup posed an engaging question that prompted a thoughtful discussion, “You’ve worked with many actors in dramas. They’re all charming and excellent actors, but out of ‘Queen of Tears’ Kim Soo-hyun, ‘Crash Landing on You’ Hyun Bin, and ‘Reborn Rich’ Song Joong-ki, who do you personally find most appealing?”
Without any hesitation, Kim Jung-nan chose Song Joong-ki, revealing her admiration for him.“He’s exceptionally good at taking care of people around him”, she stated, highlighting his charisma and leadership qualities. “He’s manly, charismatic, and has great leadership. There’s something about him that brings everyone together”, as quoted by Kbizoom.

This sentiment supported by Kim Jung-nan, who continued to praise Song Joong-ki’s character and professionalism.
She elaborated, “When you’re the lead actor, there’s a lot of responsibility that comes with it. He knows very well that the supporting actors need to perform well for the lead to shine. That’s when I realized just how smart he is”. Her comments not only showcased her respect for Song Joong-ki but also underscored the importance of teamwork in the film and television industry. Through her words, it became clear that Kim Jung-nan holds Song Joong-ki in high regard, both as an actor and as a person who fosters a positive environment for his colleagues.
