TV show producer Na Yeong-suk said Wednesday that 2PM member Ok Taecyeon‘s rustic charm led him to single out the pop idol to be a main charactor for his new variety program “Three Meals in a Day.”

“Although he has this handsome appearance, he ,when cameras away, immediately turns into like a country boy with rustic smells. Because of his rustic charm I selected him to play for my new variety show,” said Na.

Na, who is famous for “One Night Two Days” and “Over Flowers” series, made the remarks in a showcase event for the new tvN program that will launch on Friday.

“When I didn’t know him, Lee Seo-Jin, who used to speak ill of others, praised Ok a lot, it was not usual thing,” the producer added. Lee is a Korean actor who acted in the KBS drama “Wonderful Days” with Ok and will reunite with the idol for this new program.

“After knowing him, I found he is completely different from other idols, he shuffles his clothes on, and leaves for a travel any time taking selfies (on a trip) without caring other people’s eyes,” he said.
