Love is not the only thing that comes back to you. Violence and suppression is bound to come back to you too so Kim Ha-neul who played Ji-eun in film "You Are My Pet" is getting quite embarrassed these days. And it is because Jang Keun-suk, who played In-ho who is bought as Ji-eun's pet and got abused in all sorts of way, has been looking for chances to take revenge on her at official events. At the showcase for "You Are My Pet" held at Lotte World in Seoul on Monday, he continued to report of Kim's evil deeds as her pet Momo. However, as if having developed a tolerance to most of his attacks, Kim rather responded, "It was fun tackling him" and "I was happy when he was in pain after I hit him because it would mean I hit him properly." And to this, Jang ended up appealing to his Japanese fans by saying, "Hon-mo-no do-es-da! (She's a real sadist!)."

Yet since fans are only human, they are bound to respond stronger to their own pain than that of anothers. It was when the two talked about their kissing scene that the audience really stirred. Jang, encouraged by his fans who screamed at the mere sound of the word 'kiss,' put on a serious face and said, "I didn't even know how to kiss but I think Kim led me well." Thanks to that, Kim gave an embarrassed laugh while covering her face with her hands and Jang triumphantly added, "I only know about what goes on at shooting sets, the library and my home." But maybe it is because his fans are like him, utterly honest, that boos of mistrust burst out here there. I mean, he is someone who once again showed his shuffle dance on the red carpet of the Busan International Film Festival and confidently declared, "I've become good friends with LMFAO now. And who'd spread this dance if not me?" The story of how these two overcame their repression and came to kiss will soon hit theaters.
