Park Bo Gum revealed that Song Joong Ki is his go-to person for advice. "[Song] Joong Ki is a senior who gives me the most advice about acting," he said.

"I prayed a lot about it, but when I told Song Joong Ki that I didn't know what I should do, he cheered me on by saying that I should be confident in myself and have strength. I gained a lot of strength from him as we would meet up and have dinner together."
