Hong Seok Cheon had asked him out for some ramyun, which could be easily misunderstood as the famous Korean pickup line, “want to eat some ramyun before you go?” Thankfully, things were cleared up. Hong Seok Cheon had been referring to a famous ramen place nearby. Although the place was closed and they didn’t get to eat any, Hong Seok Cheon asked Cha Joo Wan out for drinks instead!
Cha Joo Wan still remembers the episode clearly, although it has been nearly 5 years since it happened. Hong Seok Cheon must have left a great impression!
