Were you with Lee Minho when that happened?

Really?

I was with Minho and other close friends.

For the first time in my life, I went on a trip

without telling my parents.

It was right after the audition for "High Kick!"

The final audition.

Not knowing I had passed,

I was going on a trip

when another car

crossed the centerline and hit my car.

It sounds like a big accident.

I was in the hospital for four months and a half.

Minho was in the hospital for a year.

- Really? / - Was Minho working as an actor?

- What? / - Minho...

- He was working as a child actor. / - I see.

When I woke up,

my mom asked me, "Do you know where you are?"

Apparently, I said, "I am at Soonpoong Clinic."

I don't remember that.

It must have been the effect of the audition.

You only had Kim Byungwook in your mind.

Yes. It must have had an impact.

For four months and a half,

I got treated for fracture in my hip and leg

concussion, and cerebral hemorrhage and

- Partial memory loss / - It could've been disastrous.

My wrist was crushed too.

I was in the hospital for four months and a half.

The sitcom aired at 7 p.m.

back in the days.

But the schedule changed before "High Kick!" aired

to 8:15 p.m., which is the time slot for daily dramas.

Thus, the shoot got delayed.

That was the only reason why I got to star in the show.

My goodness.

- Thank goodness. / - I went

to see the director before the shoot began.

But I was only a newbie actor.

Revealing the extent of my injury

would have cost my job.

So I told him that it was a small car accident.

I lied.

I got scolded so much.

I cried in the car every day

because I was in pain.

I took painkillers every day

- for the shoot. / - You struggled so much.

Have you been friends with Minho

- before your debut? / - Yes.

Minho and I have been friends since high school.

- Really? / - We went to neighboring schools.

I saw Minho for the first time

when I visited the festival at his school.

From afar, I saw a student whose face glowed.

"He is the best-looking one in this school."

You recognized one another.

Comedians recognize

- each other. / - "He is the worst-looking one."

"He was born to be a comedian."

- "He is the worst-looking one." / - "He is my kind."

- "He is in charge of jokes." / - "The funny one here."

Minho told me that he knew about me.

You knew about each other.

We became friends

and decided to pursue our dream of becoming an actor.

We were very close.

Good-looking students hear words

- about each other. / - That's right.

- That's right. / - Minho is...

There are many good-looking people in the world, right?

Minho is very considerate.

He is thoughtful.

We got into a car accident together.

I received love with "High Kick!",

but Minho was in the hospital.

I felt really bad.

(Ilwoo felt really bad for starting out first.)

I felt like it was my fault.

Then Minho left the hospital

and gained popularity through "Boys Over Flowers".

- He was so popular. / - I was so happy for him.

- I congratulated him. / - It was a matter of when

for the two of you.
