Actor Choi Min-sik (65) sparked buzz after saying he thinks Choi Hyun-wook (25), who is 40 years younger, feels like his older brother.
On the 6th, the Netflix Korea YouTube channel uploaded a commentary video for the Netflix series Notes From the Last Row. In the video, Choi Min-sik and Choi Hyun-wook appeared together to share behind-the-scenes stories from the project.
When asked what it would be like if they were teacher and student in real life, Choi Min-sik said, "Rather than a teacher–student relationship, we feel like brothers. He feels like my older brother," sending the set into laughter. He added that Hyun-wook’s relaxed tone and unhurried pace make him feel like an older brother at times. He even called out, "Hyun-wook hyung" (Korean for "older brother"), drawing more laughs.
Meanwhile, the series Notes From the Last Row, starring the two, was released on the 26th of last month and is currently streaming on Netflix.
