A representative from ‘Love Rain’ informed OSEN on June 11th, “Commemorating the end of ‘Love Rain’, Jang Geun Suk presented the 120 staff members with gift certificates worth $256 each.”
“He wanted to give something special to the staff members who worked really hard,” the representative continued. “Though the drama wasn’t a huge success, he felt the teamwork [amongst the staff] was stronger than any other project he participated in. It was his way of expressing his gratitude towards the staff members who helped create a lively atmosphere on set during the time they spent filming.”
The representative added, “This is not common, for an actor to present such a generous gift. The amount itself is pretty impressive, but he decided on mall gift certificates after spending time contemplating what would serve as a meaningful gift. That’s so like him.”
