After hearing Hyun Jin's comment, Kwang Soo claimed Hyun Jin would only be exhausted with the pair up. Also, Kwang Soo divulged the reason as to why Spartakook has not married until now.

"If you are paired with Hyung Jong Kook, you'll be exhausted all day. Although Hyung Jong Kook chose not to get married, do you think there's no other reason?" joked Kwang Soo.

Of course, fans of the show would know that Jong Kook has no concrete plans to marry. He did however state that he would tie the knot before he reaches the age of 45. Kook expressed his plans of marriage after his close friend Ahn Jae Wook recently married. Hopeful fans are praying Kook reconciles with Yoon Eun Hye.

While some question Kwang Soo's personality on the show, if he's acting it all out, stars close to Kwang Soo claim his actions are all genuine. Fans for one love Kwang Soo's personality.

"Kwang Soo is proof that nice guys don't finish last," shared a 23-year old fan named Joshua Loi in a report by News Asia One, adding, "His appeal, even to guys, is that he's very down to earth, funny and has that 'poor thing' feel about him that makes you want to root for him. He has also shown that you don't have to go for plastic surgery and have superstar looks to be a superstar."
