Yoo Seung-ho and cat co-star at press conference for Imaginary Cat
by girlfriday
Okay, how in the world did they get that cat to go to a press conference??? My cat would NOT stand for that, not even a little. I mean, I could probably get him there, but someone would be losing an eye. Either that is the most well-behaved cat in the history of cats, or Yoo Seung-ho really does have some kind of magical powers. I’m willing to believe both are true, actually.
The new MBC Every1 series Imaginary Cat held its press conference on November 24, which is cutting it a little close since the show actually premieres today. Yoo Seung-ho was there with Cat Bok-gil, along with human co-stars Jo Hye-jung (Because It’s the First Time), Han Yeri (Sea Fog), Park Chul-min (Bubblegum), and Mamamoo idol Solar.
The drama is about the relationship between a webtoon artist and his feline friend, and the way they help each other heal. Though Yoo Seung-ho has filmed the movie Joseon Magician since returning from army duty, Imaginary Cat is the first project that he’ll greet audiences with. Then of course his other drama, SBS’s Remember—Son’s War, is close behind — it’s due to premiere in early December.
An 8-episode cable drama with no other big stars is pretty low-profile for Yoo Seung-ho, but when asked about why he chose the project, he said, “It’s because I like cats, but it’s also because I thought it would be a good opportunity to change people’s awareness about animals. It would be nice if the drama did well, but I wanted to convey a meaningful message beyond that.” Well I didn’t think it was possible to love him more, but there you have it.
Imaginary Cat premieres today and airs on Tuesdays on MBC Every1.

I've watched the video countless times and each time I reached the 16 sec mark, I *died* watching the cat just hanging onto YSH's left shoulder, like it had super-glue on his body!!! Hahaha!!

That cat is totally mesmerized by Yoo Seung ho. Sigh. I can just imagine that cat attacking anyone who tries to go near Yoo Seung ho. Rawr.

The cat doesn't seem happy at all. Seems afraid poor thing.
But they were cute!

the cat is cool (NOT adorable or cute. COOL) but their outfits are downright a horrible mismatch of random punk psychedelia.

Haha I thought you were talking about the cat's outfit...I was like they aren't going to dye his fur just to match everyone else!

Because you said "the cat is cool [...] but their outfits" so the cat seemed to me still part of the subject...I probably read "and" instead of "but." lol I must not have been all that awake yet...

I just love his smile. He looks genuinely happy to be there and isn't just putting on a smile for the camera.

Yoo Seung-ho is awesome in everything he does. But, am I the only one who notice his horrible outfit?? I'm just not feeling the stripe neck-sleeved shirt (in honor of turtles, I will not use their species in vain).

OMG this is exactly what I wanted for the press conference. The pic where the cat is looking at him like YSH is his/her(?) papa. Oh goodness.
It makes sense the cat is super well trained and maybe (lol ok I'm guessing definitely) YSH has already spent a lot of time with it on and offset. GAH! So cute!

I applaud that cat for staying calm despite all those camera flashes that might have been blinding and the noisy surrounding. LOL My aunt's cat is so easily irritated so it's nice that this cat seems well behave. ??
Anticipating all the fluff YSH-cat cent on the drama!!

Yoo Seung Ho's cuteness and adorableness was already hard enough to resist to.
With a cat to boot, it's game over. *sighs*

Reminds me of the time my daughter was on skype with her first boyfriend. She was showing him how her cat licks her cheek on command when his cat came in his room. He grabbed her very quickly and said "this is my cat, she really likes me too." Cue the cat clawing him to near death. I found my daughter rolling on the floor in laughter. Needless to say the young romance didn't last, but they are still friends at school. Every time somebody talks about cats in class she turns to him and makes cat clawing signals.
