On August 27, Song Kang had an interview with the press following the release of his drama 'Love Alarm' in the previous week.

She said, "Song Kang had such a K-pop star-like look that I didn't even think that he was an actor."
To this remark, Song Kang responded, "I get that a lot. Before my debut, many people told me that I should try becoming a K-pop star, not an actor. But I've always dreamed of becoming an actor."

Song Kang said, "That's true, but I just couldn't imagine myself going into anything else other than acting."

He added, "My friend told me that it was JIN and I was like, 'Wow! So, that's how good-looking you have to be in order to become a celebrity.' JIN was literally shining."
