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!
