At the recent press conference for “Yumi’s Cells 2,” Jinyoung described his character Yoo Babi as someone…
It's just that he thinks more about not offending others, about not hurting them, than about his own good. It's such a compulsion to be good, even at the expense of yourself. That is why many people find it difficult to understand him because they are more used to selfish peopl, to gain something at the expense of others, not to sacrifice for others. Which is also not good, because the self-sacrificing person runs the risk of being hurt. Even in the scene with Woong you could see that Babi felt sorry for him, and he was, in a way, his rival. But even to him, Babi wants to be nice. Something like this may makes his behavior seem insincere when it isn't. It just comes from his psychological compulsion to be nice. This may not be good for Babi's life, because his kindness may be perceived as something more significant and there may be misunderstandings.

At the recent press conference for “Yumi’s Cells 2,” Jinyoung described his character Yoo Babi as someone with “kind kid syndrome.” Jinyoung explained this, saying, “It’s an obsession. Babi has this compulsion to do well for others. To all women and even all men. If I’m to infer about a few of Babi’s actions, there are a lot of aspects that could be misunderstood. Although this doesn’t come out in the drama, if you look at Babi’s story in the original webtoon, he says, ‘I thought I just had to blindly be nice.’ That’s the point where I felt that Babi had ‘kind kid syndrome.'” https://www.soompi.com/article/1533158wpp/got7s-jinyoung-describes-his-similarities-to-his-yumis-cells-2-character-how-peaceful-he-feels-with-his-members-and-more
I can't help but notice the difference between the webtoon and the live action.. A lot of scenes that are supposedly…
There are a few more scenes that those who read the webtoon picked up. The code number for Babi's apartment, 1224, is the same as the Soonrok code number in the webtoon. There was also a name associated with a reindeer on the elevator wall in Babi's house. The first time Yumi was in Babi's apartment, her T-shirt had the word "editor" on it.

I feel like there is gonna be something really off with Babi, they've shown him to be too perfect, like where's…
But he's not perfect. He doesn't like his father. He didn't tell Yumi about Woong's financial situation, but he wasn't sure what was driving him, and he felt remorse. Besides, his cells aren't perfect. Only his Love Cell is almost perfect. This cell wants the best for others, even if it hurts it. Babi just respects the decisions of others and is not willing to hurt them. I have the impression that he thinks more about others than about himself, so as not to offend them, even at the expense of himself. This can be considered a disadvantage.
Writers, director and actors are the same. People wanting to watch season 2 can just want to watch season 1 as…
The producer has the final word. If the drama or film are not independent, i.e. the director, the script writer does not provide funds, the script is what the producer wants it to be. I have no idea what producer Yumi's Cells 2 wants. When the season ends, we'll find out.
I don't want to sound rude, but if they don't care about the story they might as well go on TikTok/Insta and watch…
They can. It depends on the viewers. I think producers care about the money they get from drama the most. But if someone wants to watch the character development, I think Season 1 and Season 2 so far are doing quite a good thing in this regard.
For now, it looks like the drama makers have put Soonrok's scenes from webtoon to Babi's scenes in the drama,…
Probably most people know that this character, Da Eun, will appear. But also many people know from the actress herself that she had very few scenes. Also, some people believe Jinyoung's words that Season 2 will leave fond memories. If the drama were to end up in a mess, a betrayal, or something like that, it would be hard to leave that impression. We'll see how it all turns out. Maybe the script will end it all nicely, that no matter how it is, most viewers will like the story.
The authors of the drama and the actors themselves say that it is not necessary to watch season 1. You can just choose to watch both seasons or just the 2nd season. I watched the 1st season and watching the 2nd season, but I can see that you can understand the drama without watching the 1st season. I think not everyone is interested in character development, step by step. Some people just want to watch - sometimes funny, sometimes nice, sometimes touching, sometimes sad, sometimes sexy - an interesting story.
Soonrok is an editor who work for the publishing company that represent Yumi. She develop a big crush on him but…
Drama was filming scenes with Yumi and Babi in Jeju and it looks like they have wedding rings (or rings as just a couple, which is the custom in Korea). But maybe it will only be Yumi's dream. One of the promotional material has this scene with rings.
NOTE*** DO NOT CONTINUE TO READ IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW WHO YUMI ENDS UP WITH- I read the webtoons ending.OMGGG…
For now, it looks like the drama makers have put Soonrok's scenes from webtoon to Babi's scenes in the drama, so it's hard to say what character Sonrook will be in the drama. Some suspect that he may not be there, hence the director's words that season 2 will be different. I think he will, but may not be Yumi "love interest". We have to wait for what it will look like.
1. He and his girlfriend decided to abort her pregnancy, she claimed he forced it on her. 2. He dropped her after it and broke up with her on the phone. 3. She said he was talking badly about his colleagues, the director of drama sets and stuff like that. 3. When the case came to light, he hid for 3 days, then apologized to the productions he worked in, to the fans for his behavior and apologized to his ex-girlfriend. 4. He lost contracts in several films and several advertising contracts.
Wow, haven't seen such a boring male lead in a while... Woong was an interesting character from the very beginning,…
The concept of the second season is that in the opening episodes, viewers don't know what Babi feels in certain scenes and will know his feelings only after his cells appear. Hence the scenes that show Yumi's reactions more than his. I think it fits in with a typical Korean drama play with the theme of "mystery", only here it is about Babi's thoughts, not, for example, solving a murder mystery. It is difficult to get attached (or understand his behavior) to a character who, at this stage, is intentionally portrayed without his point of view.
