Uploader Judaih Chewdaii Dyuday joking captioned her Facebook post, “Willie Revillame transferred to SBS ?,” referring to the South Korean TV network where the drama is airing. 

The post has since gone viral with 16,000 reactions as of writing.

In 2004, GMA Network aired a Tagalog-dubbed version of the K-drama where Sang-woo was known to Pinoy fans as Cholo. 

The series was a ratings winner, making Sang-woo one of the so-called “first-generation” K-drama oppas who won the hearts of many Filipinos. He also visited and held a fan meet in the Philippines in 2006 or 14 years ago.
