00:00I'm going to come up.
00:01Well, now she knows, so...
00:12Hi, my name is Hangwan Lee. I play Minho in Exo-Kitty.
00:15I am Jia Kim, and we are here to play
00:18How Well Do You Know Your Co-Star with Marie Claire.
00:22Come on, Dane. Bring it on.
00:25You might not know any of these answers.
00:28I would be very impressed if you knew all of them.
00:30Go on, man. I feel like I know a good few.
00:33What movie did I watch obsessively in middle school?
00:39Middle school? Oh my gosh. Give me a year.
00:44There are options, though. Give me some options.
00:46Okay, I'll tell you a genre. It's drama.
00:49Drama? Drama? Not even rom-com?
00:52No.
00:54I know. This is going to be hard.
00:56I don't think you'll know. It's not something I watched with you.
00:59I watched it by myself a lot.
01:01How am I supposed to know this?
01:03Exactly, so this is hard.
01:05It's a Steven Spielberg movie.
01:07We have a DVD of it at home.
01:09Steven Spielberg movie?
01:14We have a DVD of it at home.
01:16Is it drama drama? Is it sad drama?
01:18Sad drama.
01:22If it's drama drama, then I can't think of it.
01:25It's the color purple.
01:27Oh my gosh.
01:29Yes, you were obsessed with that.
01:31You remember?
01:33I remember the film. I remember watching it.
01:35I can't remember if I watched it with you.
01:37I was going to say Jurassic Park.
01:39I don't know. Indiana Jones?
01:43What's the first outdoor activity that I enjoyed as a kid growing up in Hong Kong?
01:50My first outdoor activity.
01:52How old?
01:54Well, think about my first outdoor activity.
01:56In Hong Kong.
01:57I'm not talking about running, mate.
01:58Baseball?
01:59Or skipping. What?
02:00Is that your answer?
02:01No, no, no.
02:02No, that's your answer.
02:03No, no, no, no, I revoked, I revoked, I revoked.
02:06Wait, wait.
02:07Baseball?
02:08Because you were four when we moved to Hong Kong.
02:11I'm not saying, but let's see what you can do.
02:14It's an outdoor activity that I enjoyed.
02:17In school?
02:18It doesn't matter. We'll see what you can say.
02:20Ah, volleyball?
02:24Yes.
02:26Damn it.
02:28Yeah, volleyball is a game that I played a lot in elementary school.
02:31Where all you need is a ball and a wall.
02:35Especially like a tennis ball.
02:37And tennis ball is like the best one because it bounces off the wall.
02:40And the whole point of the game is you hit the ball with your hand or your palm, whatever.
02:45Any part of your body.
02:46And then you hit the floor once.
02:48And you gotta hit the wall once.
02:50And then it has to come back to the ground.
02:54Then you can hit it again.
02:56Basically like squash, but with your hands.
02:59With your hands, but yeah.
03:00We used to play some severe, intense wall balls.
03:04I know you.
03:05Okay, one nil.
03:08This is not a competition.
03:10Is it? Not?
03:12How many tattoos do I have?
03:21If I remember correctly.
03:25Unless you do.
03:27No, I don't think so.
03:28You might have got two.
03:32You have more than two tattoos.
03:34I have four.
03:36What?
03:37What?
03:38When did this happen?
03:41I want to tell mom, but I'm like.
03:43Your mom doesn't know about this.
03:46The other one you don't know about.
03:49That's why I knew you would get this.
03:51Well, obviously.
03:54I think this isn't supposed to be.
03:57You're supposed to at least let me actually guess.
04:02Now you know.
04:03The whole point of this game is so that we find out new things about each other.
04:07At the same time, it's supposed to be a game where I'm able to guess things.
04:12Not like things like, oh, what film did I watch alone that you don't know about.
04:16How am I supposed to answer that?
04:18Well, now you know.
04:19How am I supposed to answer that?
04:21How many tattoos do you have?
04:23There is one more.
04:24I don't want to know that.
04:27It's on my hip.
04:29And it's a flower.
04:31I can't remember what the flowers are called in English.
04:35But it says.
04:39Which means.
04:40What's in Korean?
04:43When did you get this?
04:46It means when you bloom and wilt.
04:49Bloom and wilt like this flower.
04:53Which I don't know what it is in English.
04:55I'm going to tell mom.
04:56Well, now she knows.
05:00I'm going to tell mom.
05:01I'm going to tell mom about this.
05:05You will not get this one.
05:07Let's see.
05:08What was my first job that I got paid for?
05:11I actually got paid for it.
05:13Is this like a one-time thing?
05:15Or are you talking about a job that you did continuously?
05:18My first job that I got paid for.
05:20It's not some kind of a job that my mom gave me.
05:23And I got paid to do that.
05:25It's not that.
05:26It's official.
05:28I actually got paid.
05:30A good amount of money.
05:32I was like, oh wow.
05:33And I got paid.
05:35The internship.
05:36What internship?
05:37At the pharmaceutical company.
05:39No.
05:40No?
05:41No.
05:43You already guessed that.
05:44Wrong.
05:45Where is it?
05:46I was still in school.
05:47And it was during summer.
05:49The summer break.
05:50Where the counselor gave me this.
05:52Sort of like an internship.
05:54I worked in this.
05:59So you know there's a lot of yachts in Hong Kong.
06:01I worked in a yacht supply company.
06:04And I worked there during the summer.
06:07And that's when I actually got paid.
06:09A good amount of money.
06:11I was like, oh wow.
06:12I worked from 9 to 5.
06:14I think I kind of remember.
06:16It was every day during the week.
06:18That was my first official job I got paid for.
06:23What is something on my bucket list
06:25I ticked off in the last few years
06:27not related to acting?
06:31Recently.
06:32In the last few years.
06:33Last few years.
06:34I think I know one.
06:36You definitely had this in your bucket list.
06:39And you ticked it off.
06:41It could be multiple answers.
06:43But this is definitely one.
06:45I'm quite confident.
06:47Bungee jumping.
06:48And that was definitely one of your bucket lists.
06:50And you did it with me.
06:52I did, but you know what?
06:53No, no, no.
06:54But that was one of the bucket lists.
06:55I was confident.
06:56It was, but I feel like that bungee jump didn't count
06:58because it wasn't high enough.
06:59What?
07:00It was scary.
07:02I don't know.
07:03For me, I want to do a bigger one.
07:05You want to do skydiving.
07:06But not that one.
07:07But you definitely did skydiving too.
07:09Okay, but okay.
07:10If there was another...
07:11Scuba diving.
07:13No, that was during...
07:15I did a lot of things off my bucket list, actually.
07:18Yeah, see?
07:19But that was in Korea.
07:21That was in LA.
07:22There was still scuba diving?
07:23It was during the pandemic.
07:24In LA.
07:25Oh, in LA.
07:26Fun school.
07:28Oh!
07:30The marathon!
07:31Yeah!
07:32The marathon.
07:33Remember?
07:34You trained, I remember.
07:35And I was thinking, you persuaded me to do it.
07:37And I was like...
07:38And I was like, hell no, I'm not doing it.
07:40What did I have in elementary school that I loved,
07:44but had to get rid of because of school regulations?
07:47In elementary school?
07:49Your tail?
07:50Yeah.
07:52I got it straight away.
07:53He had like a little mouth, tail, hair.
07:57Oh, I can't believe I remember that.
07:58I'm so proud of myself, actually.
08:00Yeah, I was...
08:01Okay, you know what?
08:02I was kind of surprised that you remembered that.
08:04I got it straight away.
08:06Straight away.
08:07So, I had this, like, tail on my back of my hair.
08:11It was cute.
08:12And it was like, I kind of like made it really long.
08:15And it was like one of my signature haircuts I had.
08:18Did you have it for so long?
08:20And everyone knew what...
08:22Everyone knew me because of that hair as well.
08:24But then one of the principals came into my class and said,
08:28you gotta cut that off.
08:29And I was like...
08:30And then as a kid, I didn't really ask why.
08:33I was like, okay then.
08:34And then I cut it off.
08:35It was a bit sad, but yeah.
08:37From childhood, we were very close.
08:39And we really bonded over similar things.
08:42Like, we would watch the same movie obsessively together.
08:46There are a lot of movies that we still to this day quote.
08:49And we do, like, quote-offs.
08:51And, you know, someone would jump into a line
08:54and then the other person would come into the scene
08:56and then we would just rip off of each other.
08:58Like, we do that a lot.
09:00And we listened to audio books together.
09:02We did, yeah.
09:03Whether we were eating dinner.
09:04We enjoyed listening to Harry Potter audio books.
09:09And other books, yeah.
09:10No, but then especially that one.
09:11We were so eager to turn it on whilst we were eating.
09:15I think that was the far most nerdiest point I've ever had in my life.
09:18It became a ritual.
09:20And I think that's on part of our mom
09:22because when we were growing up trying to learn English
09:25as our second language,
09:26listening to audio books and reading it along with it
09:29was a big part of our learning experience.
09:32So I guess listening to audio books became a big part of our growing up.
09:36I saw the open call and then as soon as I saw the breakdown,
09:40I was like, I'm going to go for this character.
09:43But this character, I can definitely see my brother selling really well.
09:46So then I sent him the same thing
09:48and we auditioned from different places.
09:51I sent in my tapes earlier than he did.
09:53But then, you know, so we were kind of moving at different speeds.
09:56But then he went, like, really fast and he was confirmed, like, first.
10:00I had to wait a little longer before I was confirmed.
10:02But we were both really hoping that both of us get it
10:05and that there was no love line story between our characters
10:08because that would not be OK.
10:12It all worked out.
10:13So we're both very grateful for that.
10:15That was the time when I got confirmed and I said,
10:18OK, you know what, like, worst case scenario,
10:20if you don't get it, then I'll give you, like, 25%
10:25or like 30% of what I paid for.
10:27I'm sure you didn't say that high.
10:29Bro, I didn't.
10:30Shut up.
10:32He was going to give you something.
10:33I was going to give you so much.
10:38I would love to see, obviously, Minho not being a playboy,
10:43but, you know, finding his true, you know, first love moment.
10:50Oftentimes when someone is a playboy,
10:53sure, they can be flirty by nature.
10:56But I also think a part of that comes from being hurt in the past.
11:00And that's just a way of being defensive and protecting their heart.
11:05So I feel like I would love to see a character like Minho
11:08go all in, even if it means getting hurt in the end.
11:11Yeah, I just want to see more of Yuri and her mother
11:15and her father getting along together
11:17or showing some good moments.
11:20Like warm family moments.
11:22Yeah, rather than the most typical, like,
11:26oh, rich families have bad relations between the parents and the son
11:29or kids, whatever.
11:30But yeah, I just want to see a happy moment from them.
11:34So guys, thanks for watching.
11:36And make sure you check out XO Kitty on Netflix
11:39if you haven't already.
