Winner of the 2008 MBC Drama Awards - Female Top Excellent Award for "East of Eden", Lee Mi Sook Speaks Out on BYJ


From Kang Ho Dong Star Battle Feb. 4, 2009
(translated from the Japanese captions by flowerbossa)


Lee Mi Sook a woman of unchanging beauty, drama personified. In works such as "Untold Scandal" and "Besa Me Mucho", even big stars like BYJ were under her control.

"The lovers in my works were often younger than me"

With Bae Yong Joon-ssi too...


Was that before the Hanryu boom?
It was just around the time the boom started.


Did you think that he would get this big?
BYJ-ssi is a really deligent man. I couldn't possibly imitate him. I even asked him "do you want to kill yourself?" I guess he is a perfectionist.

Did you think that he would lead the Hanryu boom?
I had no idea. When someone from the production company of "Untold Scandal" said that BYJ-ssi might become famous in Japan, I said to them, what a joke. I regret it.

You should have tried to become more intimate with him then.
Oh well, too bad.

Do you have anything you want to say to BYJ-ssi?
Yes - that I'm sorry I said that back then. When we were playing golf, we really got serious over the game. As a grown-up, I should have let him win. I really had my mind set on winning. Sorry.

So you played golf together? And got heated?
For us, things like me being a woman or him being a junior doesn't matter. We consider each other serious rivals. Winning is all that counts. We don't even talk to each other until the game is over.

You both are really competitive, aren't you?
He doesn't even go easy on me when my ball gets stuck in the ditch. He could be a bit more easier on me, you know.


What happens if BYJ-ssi makes a similar mistake?
I ignore it too. I even tell him "get out of my way".

You should have given in.
I regret it.
