Recently saw a translation of KTO's interview on Twitter that says "KTO's favorite nickname is Young-woo's husband" but actually there are SO MANY CONTEXTS MISSING
What he actually said is that he really enjoyed a meme calling him 'HYL' (Husband of Young-woo Later on) which is a parody of his previous drama, 'The Tale of Nokdu'
KTO was a gentle second lead in the romcom history drama (at least we thought he'd be)
Then in the middle of the series he suddenly turned out to be
A psychopath villain which is based on a real king of Joseon, King Injo. KTO immediately got quite famous after this scene since it was such a twist (not just because gentle second lead turned into a scary villain, but because real Injo is such a terrible king/father and most koreans hate him to guts lol so ppl who loved him as the gentle second lead were so devastated that he was actually King Injo lmao) and had so much impact.
Anyways, this korean subtitle revealing his identity in this famous scene says "Prince Neungyang, King Injo Later on" and it became a meme when a korean eaw fan made this
"Lee Jun-ho, Husband of Young-woo Later on"
with the exact history drama style subtitle lol and korean eaw fans started calling this meme and also nicknamed Jun-ho as HYL. So that's why KTO said this is his favorite nickname 🤣
