The broadcast garnered 1 million “hearts,” -- a record in V’s movie actors category -- reflecting the heated anticipation for the new flick featuring actors Kim Yoon-seok, Kang Dong-won and Park So-dam and directed by Jang Jae-hyun.

In an in-depth, hourlong talk, the actors discussed behind-the-scene anecdotes on making the film, particular hardships and thoughts. Kang Dong-won recited a long monologue in Latin that he had memorized for his role in the film.

VIXX’s Ravi popped on V app to try out some restaurants that were recommended by his fans. The eatery that Ravi chose was a Japanese tonkatsu place.

“It’s fried but the beef is a bit rare,” Ravi commented after taking a bite of his order. “It makes for a contrast that is delicious.”

The restaurant also offered tiny, personalized grills for customers to heat their meat on. “It makes the meat taste fresh and right off the fire,” said Ravi, content with his meal.
