They’re extremely popular in their chosen field, so they’re super busy and dedicated to their craft — how can they even have time to bond as friends?

The answer to this question came from Park Seo Joon himself. In his recent interview with Esquire magazine, Park Seo Joon was asked this question:

Q: You seem to have a wide personal relations. You’re even close with V of BTS. You must be the type to take good care of your younger siblings.

A: I’m really close with V, somehow it happened. I don’t think I take care of them. If the conversation code is correct, I meet my younger brothers just like he is my friend. We share our concerns, listen & talk if we can.
When we’re working in similar field, we face similar difficulties even though we’re in different positions.

For Park Seo Joon, his closeness with V happened somehow, perhaps when they both starred in the Korean drama Hwarang.

But they grew closer day by day, because, as he mentioned when he said that he treats his siblings as friends, he prefers to share his problems, listen and talk with his friends.
