Actor Choi Jin-hyeok spoke about his relationship with broadcaster Lee Gook-ju.

The MBC variety program 'Radio Star' (hereinafter 'Ras'), which aired on the 1st, was specially themed around 'Sons of National Team Players' and featured Ryu Soo-young, Choi Jin-hyeok, Yoon Si-yoon, and B1A4's San.

On this day, regarding the compliment of being called the 'Asian Prince', Choi Jin-hyeok explained, "I think they said it to make me feel good. The works I happened to do received a good response overseas, and that's how I became known."

He added, "This year marks my 20th anniversary of debut, so I held a fan meeting in Japan as a commemoration. It was a very good time."

When Kim Gura asked about his nickname, Choi Jin-hyeok replied, "I don't really have one. I call myself 'Jinsang' (troublemaker). When actors hold fan meetings, they usually sing 2 to 3 songs, but I sing 9. Since I tour 7 or 8 places, just singing and talking repeatedly might get boring, so I thought that even if I fumble a bit, if I practice hard enough, it might look exciting, so I've even practiced choreography."

Along with this, Choi Jin-hyeok also spoke about his connection with Lee Gook-ju. He explained, "Lee Gook-ju attended the first performance of the musical 'Those Days' yesterday to cheer her on. She came without even telling me beforehand and bought a ticket without any discount. I was surprised. She is truly a grateful friend."

He continued, "We first met during the drama 'My Son's Little Sister'. My mom really liked Gook-ju. She said, 'That child seems nice, I hope we can get along well.' Somehow, we ended up meeting. I wanted to get close without any hesitation, so I asked for her number, but later I heard she misunderstood and thought I had feelings for her. I never thought that way at all."

Choi Jin-hyeok spoke about his unchanging friendship with Lee Gook-ju, saying, "When Gook-ju held a fan meeting in Korea, she even served as the MC, and she came to my fan meeting in Japan to take photos with the fans. Because of that, my mom pressed sesame oil using sesame she grew herself in the countryside. When I gave it as a gift, she was so moved that she gave a gift to my mom as well."
