At a drama press conference designed for fan engagement, one actor’s unexpected moment stole the spotlight and sparked buzz.
On January 27, the press conference for tvN’s Wednesday–Thursday drama Our Universe brought together the directing team and cast members Bae In-hyuk, Roh Jeong-eui, and Park Seo-ham.
Our Universe follows in-laws Seon Tae-hyung (played by Bae In-hyuk) and Woo Hyun-jin (played by Roh Jeong-eui) and their nephew Wooju (played by Park Yoo-ho). When photo assistant Tae-hyung and job-seeker Hyun-jin suddenly have to raise their nephew together, the trio’s chaotic adjustment and heartfelt growth unfold.
During the event, Bae In-hyuk and Roh Jeong-eui shared stories about working with child actor Park Yoo-ho. Bae said, “While we were filming and I was holding Yoo-ho, he suddenly grabbed my face and gave me a kiss. In that moment, I felt like I had the whole world.” Roh added, “Wooju is so adorable that I kept breaking into laughter during takes.”
Later, when Park Yoo-ho appeared cradled in Bae In-hyuk’s arms, the mood instantly brightened. A moment when Bae handed him a phone captured the little star’s full attention, drawing smiles across the venue.
Netizens reacted with comments like, “I’m getting total dad vibes from Bae In-hyuk,” “The two seem to have gotten really close,” and joked, “It’s the first time I’ve seen an actor on their phone during a press conference—but Wooju gets a pass,” “Bae In-hyuk’s chemistry with the child actor is too cute,” and “My cheeks are going up.”
Meanwhile, the heartwarming chemistry of Bae In-hyuk, Roh Jeong-eui, and Park Yoo-ho will be on full display when Our Universe premieres on February 4.
