Son Ye Jin reveals how work conversations with Hyun Bin play out
A report from Sports Chosun revealed, when Son Ye Jin was asked about possible discussions between the two Crash Landing on You co-stars, she shared, “I don't really talk about work with my husband.” 
Revealing the one rare moment when she did talk about a script, ”Sometimes I’d ask him to run lines with me. Initially, when the scenario for this film (No Other Choice) came to me, it was called The Axe. I asked him to check out the script. When we read lines, if he makes them weird, I even scold him, 'Do it right! Is this all you can do? He laughs. I don’t know why we’re like this.”

Speaking about the tacit understanding between the two in another aww-worthy moment, she continued, “My husband and I, you may be surprised, but we don't talk much about work, especially him. We also don't ask where the other person has been or if the filming was difficult. We can tell just by looking at each other’s faces.”

Her statements incited laughter from the cast, crew, and reporters present.
