Actor Park Bo-gum was deeply devoted to 'Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo'.

On the 16th, on KBS 2TV's 'Gureumi Revisited', Park Bo-gum, Kim Yoo-jung, Jin Young, Kwak Dong-yeon, and Chae Soobin embarked on a trip to commemorate the drama's 10th anniversary. This journey was organized by Park Bo-gum. The five reunited after a decade, reminiscing as they once again saw the costumes they had worn ten years ago.

Before officially starting their trip, they created nicknames for each other. Chae Soobin was dubbed "the fierce herbivore." Kwak Dong-yeon explained, "She has spirit and speaks loudly, but she still seems like a herbivore." Kim Yoo-jung was called Oh Eun-yeong (Dr.). The members remarked, "If things go wrong, she could scold the older men. She's like Oh Eun-yeong (Dr.)."

Park Bo-gum took on the role of Jeon Gyo (Chairman). This nickname suited him well, as he is known in real life for his upright image and being a model citizen. Kim Yoo-jung gifted Kwak Dong-yeon the nickname "youngest uncle," saying, "He jokes around a lot and is fun."

Jin Young was praised for his batting skills. "The younger ones love to tease me," he said with an awkward smile, then revealed, "The villains are Dong-yeon and Yoo-jung." Kwak Dong-yeon expressed affection for Jin Young, saying, "He makes me test myself. How far will I go?"

While sharing a meal, Park Bo-gum said, "I think Yoo-jung will be married in ten years. Still, I hope we all live next door to each other. I want to travel together even after ten years," gazing affectionately at his fellow cast members. In fact, Park Bo-gum drank so much alcohol he couldn't eat because he enjoyed the company of his members so much.

Park Bo-gum recalled, "It was the first time in my life I came home the latest that day. It's amazing there were still open shops at that hour," reminiscing about the night they stayed out drinking until dawn. Kwak Dong-yeon teased Park Bo-gum, saying, "You drank too much that day. Didn't you finish every single drink?" eliciting laughter from everyone.

The five members enjoyed rafting and challenged themselves with diving. Especially Chae Soobin and Jin Young, who were afraid of water, succeeded in diving thanks to the encouragement of their fellow cast members. On a hot summer day in August, the 'Gureumi' quintet reunited after a long time, spending happy moments swimming and splashing in the water together.

After water activities, dinner consisted of chicken soup with ginseng. Kim Yoo-jung quickly prepared potato pancakes and kimchi pancakes. Park Bo-gum's bibim-myeon and Jin Young's YangGalbi were also served. The five enjoyed their evening meal in the courtyard of a traditional Korean house (Hanok), engaging in another heartfelt conversation.

Especially, recalling the filming ten years ago, Park Bo-gum said, "Back then, I had so much responsibility and pressure. But Yoo-jung handled it well. Even when I was struggling, I thought she must have been just as tired. Raon was a character with intense emotional shifts. Yet, even on set, she took great care of everyone." He praised 17-year-old Kim Yoo-jung for her performance.

Park Bo-gum's love for 'Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo', which aired in 2016, is well known. On August 22 this year, he shared behind-the-scenes photos from the filming set and pictures of himself receiving 10th-anniversary wishes on his SNS, leaving a message: "Back then, now, always #MoonLoversScarletHeartRyeo."

This one-night, two-day trip also came about at Park Bo-gum's suggestion to commemorate the 10th anniversary. Lee Young's 'Gureumi fever' continues unabated after a decade.
