Actor Kim Woo-bin has shared his behind-the-scenes experiences from the tvN variety show 'Kong Kong Pang Pang' in a surprise interview, generating significant buzz as he prepares for his upcoming wedding.

The interview video, titled 'Ask Kim Woo-bin: KKPP Food Internal Audit,' was posted on the official social media of his agency, AM Entertainment. In it, Kim Woo-bin revisited moments from the show, which concluded on the 12th.

Addressing the designer shoes he wore on the first day of their trip, which garnered attention, he explained, "I can wear them, but they got some scuffs, so I'm debating whether to wear them as is or get them re-dyed." He added that the shoes are currently on loan for repair.

He also recounted an incident where he entrusted his shoes for cleaning on the streets of Mexico upon arrival, only for the leather to be damaged by water.

Regarding his playful arguments with the production crew over finances as the 'KKPP Food' auditor, Kim Woo-bin clarified, "I wasn't sure how much of it was meant to be real. Jun Wi-nim was so convincing that there were moments when I felt genuinely upset, and my reactions just came out." He also expressed regret over a vintage jacket purchased in Mexico, stating, "It's still in my closet, but I haven't been able to wear it. I thought it looked fine at the store, but when I tried it on at home, it felt a bit small. I think I'd lost some weight then, so it's a bit tight, and I haven't worn it yet."

Kim Woo-bin also addressed the tears shed during filming. He explained that when the production requested additional funds from headquarters due to budget constraints and were denied, he was seen crying. "That was due to dry eyes and wind," he explained with a laugh. "I knew people would think I was genuinely upset, but there were quite a few who believed I cried because I was truly hurt. I wasn't *that* hurt. While it's true I was disappointed, the tears were from dry eyes caused by the wind."

He also touched upon losing the friendship rings he exchanged with Lee Kwang-soo and Do Kyung-soo, admitting, "It wasn't an unexpected situation. I didn't think Kwang-soo hyung would actually lose the ring, but then he made such a fuss..." expressing a hint of disappointment.

Kim Woo-bin has showcased his versatility this year in the Netflix series 'Everything Will Come True' and 'Kong Kong Pang Pang.' He is set to marry his long-time girlfriend, actress Shin Min-a, on the 20th, concluding a decade of public dating.

Netizens reacted warmly to Kim Woo-bin's candid interview, with comments like, 'He made so many good memories before the wedding,' 'Congratulations on your wedding!', and 'We look forward to seeing more of you after you get married.'
