Actor Hong Jong Hyun opened up about his 'Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo' co-star IU in an interview TV Report on November 9.

Hong Jong Hyun was asked about his chemistry with IU, and he answered, "We started working together in the middle of the series. I listened to IU's music a lot before that. I knew she wrote and composed her own songs, and I always thought of her as a sensitive person," adding that he was right about his impression of her.

He added, "Because she's someone who does music, she was able to express sensitive feelings well. She was also mature for her age. She looks very small, thin, feminine, and like she'd get tired soon, but she's not like that at all. I don't know if it's because her stamina's good or if she just withstood it, but she has more strength than an average man. She held her form from beginning to end."

Hong Jong Hyun concluded, "Though acting isn't her original career and she's still gaining experience, she was extremely professional."

People always bash others for their poor acting skill. But if one is trying and learning they will improve even if they're not trained for acting. Its good to hear people enjoyed working with her. I haven't seen this drama yet from her previous work i don't think she's good. I don't think Suzy is any good either but people will keep getting better even if they can't be the best at it.

IU is a smart, beautiful and talented woman but women hate so much on her while men admire and want to protect her. These women has to take example on her instead of being stupidly jealous.

Not all women! i think she did a good job in scarlet heart, though there is room for improvement, but that is no reason to hate her. Plus, she has a beautiful voice, and is an amazing singer! I really hope people will stop being so mean to her
