A recent episode of the show Jinny’s Kitchen, also known as Seo Jin’s, featured a moment that perfectly illustrated the contrasting approaches of a K-Pop idol and a K-Drama actor when faced with cameras. The interaction involved BTS member V and popular actor Park Seo Joon, both part of the show’s cast.
The scene unfolded as Park Seo Joon was explaining his preferred method for cooking ramyun. He mentioned that he adds the flavored powder before the noodles, believing it helps the water boil faster.
Personally, I add the powder first. I heard it helps make the water boil faster?

While Park Seo Joon was focused on the ramyun and explaining his cooking technique, V, who was standing nearby, listened attentively. However, shortly after, V began to look around, seemingly searching for something.
This prompted V to ask Park Seo Joon a question about where they should be looking during their conversation, indicating his awareness of being filmed. Park Seo Joon’s response highlighted the difference in their professions:
V: Who are you talking to? (Which camera are you looking at?)
Park Seo Joon: Me? I’m talking to the ramyun.
V: Oh…
This brief but telling exchange quickly gained popularity among fans of both K-Pop and K-Dramas. It perfectly captured a fundamental difference between idols and actors: their relationship with the camera.
Actors, in the course of their work, rarely look directly into the camera. Their focus is on their scene partners and the narrative.

On the other hand, idols are often expected to engage with the camera, making eye contact, posing, and directly interacting with it as part of their performance and fan engagement.
Fans who observed this stark contrast shared their thoughts online:
Occupational hazards, huh? LOL. V is adorable, looking around to find the camera.
Look at him looking around. So cute!
I cackled, hahaha.
I think Park Seo Joon admitting that he was talking to the ramyun makes this even funnier. LOL.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Dang it.
Aww, LOL. These two are the cutest.
Differences in being an actor vs. being an idol, I guess. HAHA. This is so cute. I didn’t expect Park Seo Joon to be such a sweetheart.
It’s hilarious because both of them are so serious.
Talking to the ramyun, LOL!
Hahaha! V looking so lost, he’s adorable.
The interaction served as a lighthearted yet insightful moment, showcasing the distinct professional habits that V and Park Seo Joon have developed in their respective careers.
