Before the dating confirmation, their co-workers also couldn’t stop praising their professionalism and chemistry. Actor Kim Jung Hyun (Gu Seung Jun in Crash Landing on You) lauded both Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin in an interview.
Son Ye Jin and Hyun Bin are both amazing when they act. During rehearsals, there’s no “pinky-atmosphere” as the reports say. But when they begin shooting, he looks at her with so much love, and I was amazed by it. It made me think how lucky I was to be working with such talented seniors. They’re the people you call “professionals”

5. They care for each other
Finally, it’s obvious from their interactions in real life that they genuinely care for each other. Hyun Bin, for instance, always makes sure Son Ye Jin is comfortable in front of the press, like giving up his spot for her…
…and helping her sit down.
In her Instagram post following the dating news, Son Ye Jin shyly referred to her boyfriend as “a good person”. Her words came straight from the heart, confirming their genuine feelings for each other.
I don’t know what to say, but I feel like I have to say something to you guys…It’s very awkward ^^ I’m thankful for meeting a good person and I will also try to take care of myself…I will always keep the love and support you all send me in my heart.
