WHAT'S THE SIGNIFICANCE OF PK TO HJ & MM?
To pave way for the upcoming Playful Kiss DVD Cut release in Japan on March 27 which coincides with the blog's 7th monthsary (wooohooo), let's reminisce the happy moments of the couple and examine the significance of Playful Kiss in HJ & MM. I've heard from some long-time fans of HJ that he changed a lot during and after PK. I'd like to share my observations of some of the significance of PK for the couple since I started being a fan of them.
I'll skip the "during" PK because I've covered most of them in my hints but if given enough time and for special occasions, we'll revisit those wonderful moments. I'll start with their first interview after PK...
Here's an excerpt of HJ's interview published by Nate and HanCinema:
Kim Hyun-joong confessed that he also learned
responsibility as an actor from this drama. “I learned how hard it was to lead
a drama by oneself. I don't regret my work since I did my best. I love to have
high viewer rating but I don't cling to it. I rather try to do a drama that I
can proudly show it to my son/daughter later in my life. 'Naughty Kiss' will be
one of them.”
My POV and probably most HyunMin fans share the same sentiments: If HJ is with another woman, would he have the guts to show a drama where he shared dozen of kisses with his leading lady to his children? Come on, really??? And wouldn't that be offending to a wife?
And here's an excerpt of Elle magazine's interview with MM after PK:
Q: Are you
compatible with Kim Hyun Joong?
MM: He has his own stable world and thoughts, but
the process of knowing each other is funny. If he is a person who is outgoing
with everyone, I will not have such a feeling. But he isn't, so I really thank
him so much, and we get well with each other.
Q. Think of
something he has always found it difficult to get people to doubt, he is with
you?
MM: Very well, I have so little character, for
example slightly: we can laugh with these conversations that other people do
not feel funny.
Q: The way he
thinks is a little different and people find him difficult (to get along with), how do you get along with him?
MM: We get along well. I have a different
personality too. For example: we can play around and laugh at things that other
people do not find funny.
My pov on MM's reply 1: when do actors care if their co-actors are outgoing? mmm... and I ponder on the last 2 questions.
^^We post, you observe, you conclude!^^

PK is that important to HJ that some memorabilia from PK like the scripts, shoes and even a bts photos from a YT episode are displayed in Jaksal. He also included PK poster and or scene from the drama as one of the game segments at his FM in Taiwan, Hongkong, Bangkok, Singapore to name a few:
 |
| PK memorabilia in Jaksal branch |
 |
| PK Poster at his FM in BKK |
 |
| PK poster at Lotte FM in 2012 |
 |
| PK poster at his FM in Peru |
As I've mentioned in one of my previous hints, he could've used memorabilia from BOF or his previous shows since PK was not well accepted in his homeland but why PK???
Now if you're his gf, wouldn't you at least be suspicious with the memorabilia displayed in one the Jaksal branches? Mind you, the caricature girl print on his tank top looks very much like *ehem-ehem*.
