Excerpt from Kim Bum's interview where he mentions Minho, Ilwoo and Hyun Joong

Very interesting excerpt from kim bum's interview where he mentions MH, ilwoo and hyun joong:

"Recently during the world cup, i've tried wearing a mask and being a supporter on the streets" said kim bum. Kim bum who usually exercises and occasionally drinks says his alcohol tolerance is around 3-4 bottles of soju. In contrast to his pretty/delicate appearance, kim bum who has a high alcohol tolerance said "recently becoz of what happened during MH-hyung's fan meeting, reports saying that i'm a drinker emerged, although in reality I admit I drink more than MH and ilwoo hyung combined. MH-hyung can drink 2 cups (of soju), ilwoo hyung 3 cups. once they reach their limit, they have to go home." The person who can stand against him in drinking is colleague Kim Hyun Joong.

Kim bum, Lee min ho, Jung il woo, Kim hyun joong etc are all peers who are male actors, wouldn't a sense of competition arise amongst them?

"I've been asked this many times as to whether we'd be rivals. I usually meet ilwoo and MH-hyung the most 8 times a week, and when less frequently, 3 times a week. When the 3 of us guys meet, we'll eat together or drink tea. If we have a sense of competition between ourselves, I don't think we'd get together (match) that well. I think we got closer becoz we met as actors during the initial phase of our career. If we were to meet for the first time right now, I don't think we can become close," kim bum revealed his honest thoughts.
