Actor Kim Woo-bin released a Dubai business trip vlog, drawing attention.
On the 11th, AM Entertainment's official YouTube channel uploaded a video titled "A v-log of endless blessings | 'Woob' genie log in Dubai! Only at AM."
The video contains various behind-the-scenes stories never seen before, from Kim Woo-bin leaving the country to shoot the recently released Netflix Genie, Make A Wish, to the process of transforming into the genie, and even small daily moments on days without shooting, attracting much interest.
In particular, Kim Woo-bin drew attention by fully revealing the process of transforming into the genie character that had been a topic on social media even before the release. To portray a genie who had been trapped in a lamp since 983, he wore a brown-toned outfit with long hair and gold-toned decorations, showing he had fully immersed himself in the character.
On days without shooting, viewers can also see the unadorned side of Kim Woo-bin the person. Kim Woo-bin shared small daily moments such as eating with staff, sightseeing in Dubai, and enjoying late-night ramen mukbangs. The video also showed his consistent exercise for self-care and him practicing various gestures alone while reading the script, revealing his serious side as an actor.
In the video, Kim Woo-bin also elicited laughter with an unexpected clumsy charm. Not yet familiar with using the camera, he sometimes filmed without pressing the record button, and while talking to the camera he delivered a tiny line, "Who am I talking to right now?", amusing viewers.
Viewers could also catch a glimpse of the chemistry with co-star Suzy. Meeting Suzy again 10 years after Misguided Affection, Kim Woo-bin, who reunited with her, slyly showed the camera filming him to Suzy and asked, "Want to appear once?", and playfully asked Suzy to introduce himself on set, showing a mischievous side.
At the end of the video, Kim Woo-bin's impressions after finishing the Dubai shoot were included. He said, "I filmed in Dubai for about three weeks, and time went by much faster than I thought," and added, "I was so happy to be able to work on a new project, in a new space, with new people, and I look forward to the remaining schedule."
In this way, Kim Woo-bin captured viewers' attention with his human charm by candidly presenting both his professional preparation for the character and the modest daily life he had not shown before.
Meanwhile, Genie, Make A Wish, featuring Kim Woo-bin, is streaming exclusively on Netflix.
