He’s so soft-hearted!

Actor Park Bo Gum guested on Episode 43 of Jang Do Yeon‘s Salon Drip 2 to promote new film Wonderland. Things took an unexpectedly emotional turn.

During their interview, Jang Do Yeon asked a hypothetical question: “What do you want to say to the people who miss you if you’re no longer in this world?” Park Bo Gum thoughtfully responded, expressing gratitude to his fans and loved ones.

Hm… I’d tell them, ‘Thank you! You’re doing great!’ And other encouraging words like that. I’d also thank them for having loved me.

— Park Bo Gum

Yet, as Park Bo Gum spoke, he became teary-eyed. Jang Do Yeon took notice and quickly apologized for unexpectedly making him cry.

Jang Do Yeon: Oh, no! What have I done?! I’m sorry!

Park Bo Gum: It’s OK!

Jang Do Yeon: It seems you’re very expressive, though… So, I wonder why… I’m sorry!

Park Bo Gum: No, I’m sorry!

Jang Do Yeon was very apologetic. She and the staff even handed him tissues. Park Bo Gum continued crying and wiped his tears as he finished his response to the question.

Jang Do Yeon: No, no. I can’t believe I’ve made a deer cry… But, like I said, I think you’re actually good at expressing your feelings. Usually, the tears come when there’s a sense of regret. Regret that you’ve not expressed enough for the people you love. But Bo Gum, you’re such a good person to the people around you!

Park Bo Gum: There are times when I can’t express everything I feel, though. There are times… And to imagine an AI of me speaking to the ones I leave behind, I’d want it to tell them that I appreciated their love for me.

The moment showed just how kind, sensitive, and soft-hearted Park Bo Gum is. Netizens admired his wholesome personality.

JDY: What do you want to say to the people who miss you if you're no longer in this world?

PBG: Hm “thank you! You did well” those encouraging words. And also “Thank you for liking me”

And he can't hold his tears 😭 our soft-hearted bogum
