Nam Ji Hyun talked about this during her interview in a cafe on November 18.  She gave the behind story for those pictures with, "I didn't think pictures would be taken of us exchanging phone numbers.  To tell the truth, Kim Yoo Jung's mom and my mom are extremely close.  I never worked with Kim Yoo Jung or met her in private before. However, we consistently heard about how the other was doing.  I got to meet her for the first time through the award ceremony.

"We first exchanged greetings in the waiting room.  It felt like everyone was leaving, so I said to Kim Yoo Jung, 'I would like to know your phone number, but I have no cell phone. I want to give you my phone number.'  Kim Yoo Jung had her phone on her right then, so we exchanged numbers.  I said we should get food together next time and become closer.

"On my way home, I saw the pictures and was surprised.  Because it felt like everyone was leaving, I thought that the reporters had all left.  A lot of people responded to something so small, so I was fascinated," and laughed out of embarrassment.

How cute!  Hope the two do indeed get closer!
