Park Bom cheers on her 'Roommate' Lee Dong Wook and his drama 'Hotel King'

Park Bom cheered on her 'Roommate' actor Lee Dong Wook.

The two must have gotten close over filming as she tweeted on April 10, "Everyone, I watched episodes 1 and 2 of 'Hotel King' exactly 4 times. Why? Because Dong Wook oppa is in it. But he doesn't seem like the roommate oppa I live with. His eyes are filled with charisma. I wasn't used to it, but it was fun as expected!"

Park Bom continued, "As someone who totally loves 'Hotel King' and as Lee Dong Wook oppa's 'Roommate'. Hahaha. Fighting."

Fans commented, "I guess they've gotten friendlier," "I'm so jealous," and more.

Are you excited for the 'Roommate' premiere on April 20 KST?
