Through an interview that celebrates the success of No gain, no loveShin revealed what Kim Woo Bin thought of the romantic comedy, as well as what he thought of the continued focus on their relationship.
According to Shin, Kim Woo Bin watched No gain, no love AND “I liked it.” As for public interest in her relationship with him, she said no “I feel uncomfortable talking about him or the relationship itself,” but he tries to abstain because he doesn’t want it to affect either of them’s work, as well as the viewers’ connection to the work.
To be honest, I don’t feel uncomfortable about the topic itself, but I’m afraid that it might influence what each of us is doing. For example, No gain, no love it was a romantic comedy and there were viewers who supported the main couple of the show. So I would refrain from talking about it [my real-life relationship] out of respect for my co-star.
