Actor Nam Yoon Su is finally addressing the homophobic comments from fans against his character for his BL series ‘Love In The Big City’.
‘Love In The Big City’ is the TV adaptation of Park Sang Young’s best-selling novel of the same name which follows the Seoul queer scene as narrated by a young gay man in his 20s and 30s.
Speaking to Allure Korea in an interview, the 27-year-old actor addressed the comments he received following the announcement of his casting for the project.
Yoon Su said that accepting the role was not a difficult decision since he had queer friends growing up and has been open-minded from the beginning. He added that he thought of his character as an ordinary person. Yoon Su divulged that after the casting was announced, he received a lot of messages from fans from different nationalities saying thank you.
“Of course, there were some curses, but there were more who said thanks. They even fought in the comments. I was just sitting still,” he added playfully.
