Lee Min-ho is an obstetrician-gynecologist by profession in When The Stars Gossip. He is sent on a secret mission to a space station by MZ Medical Center and as a space tourist, he is set to unfold the undisclosed mission. On the other hand, the female lead, Gong Hyo-jin plays the role of Eve Kim. She is a Korean-American astronaut.
Taking to X, one fan wrote, "He can make me laugh. Which I admit is not easy to do. In times where actors try to be funny but don’t manage & the humor is either cheesy…vulgar or nonexistent…HE is genuinely funny in every way possible. I truly can’t wait to meet Gong Ryong."
Another fan praised the chemistry of Gong Ryong and Eve Kim and wrote, "the way they look at each other."
Fans once again fall in love with the king of K-drama, Lee Min-ho as one wrote, "long-haired minho with specs SEXY AS HELL!!!"
