"Brother Shin Dong-yup" stars Lee Min-ho and Kong Hyo-jin. Shin Dong-yup said, "In the past, when I played a villain, viewers would hit me on the back and call the broadcasting station to bully the main character.
Lee Min-ho said, "After the first episode of 'Boys Over Flowers' aired, my mini homepage was filled with insults. I was accused of bullying Geum Jan-di.
"My mini homepage, which usually only had a few thousand visitors, was suddenly flooded with 500,000 to 600,000 people writing nothing but negative comments," he recalled.
"At that time, I thought, 'What did I do wrong? Has something gone wrong?'" he said.
However, after EP2 aired, the amount of dislike I had turned into love." When Kong Hyo Jin said, "If it were now, I would have sued," Lee Min Ho replied, "It wasn't a case of suing, it was impossible to air the show.
I think so. There was a story about school violence and a scene where a fire extinguisher was thrown around. Even now, there are a lot of memes about it. When I think back to those days, I think everyone was a little crazy. I was a little crazy.
"When I saw his hairstyle, it was insane," he said with a laugh.
