"I worried a lot. "Love Clinic" isn't an easy genre. I could be defaming myself. But I watched the movie and thought otherwise. People around me say it's fun and it's fun to talk about it. It's not an opportunity that comes by every day".

Oh Ji-ho is a handsome, smart and sexy gynecologist named Wang Seong-gi who knows women on the 'inside' but not enough. Kang Ye-won plays Gil Sin-seol a urologist who examines men on their sensitive parts but hasn't had a proper relationship experience.

Wang Seong-gi is a funny character. He is perfect but quite ditzy. This is a character a romantic comedy needs but it's not easy to act it out like Oh Ji-ho did.

"I prepare a lot before we go into shoot. I put much weight on timing. I watch how my co-star does it and I act out what I've prepared. I always think about what the audience might like. I ask the director for advice and focus on the audience at all times. I prepare two kinds of acts for one scene".

Director Kim Aaron says, "He's always spot on in front of the camera. He's well prepared". Kang Ye-won said, "He's very hard working at all times and does everything perfectly".

"A movie is based on a scenario and people pay to see it. You can't disappoint them".

Thanks to his 'preparations', making the movie wasn't embarrassing. It's an adult rated comedy movie about the best gynecologist who performs vaginal contracting surgery on women and the best urologist who expands men's sensitive areas. He might've known there was going to be certain embarrassing situations while filming the movie when he 'prepared' himself for it. However, scenes where he had to concentrate on a woman's parts and Ha Joo-hee seducing him with a sexy costume were embarrassing indeed.

"It was embarrassing when Ha Joo-hee wore the costume. The scene itself wasn't that bad. However, she was walking around in the costume while I was talking to the director".

Oh Ji-ho is brave when it comes to acting but there's someone he's afraid of. That's his wife. He claimed that he couldn't tell his wife about the erotic scenes in the drama.

"I told her when the premiere was near. The bed scene was in the scenario but we never filmed it. Before the VIP premiere, I explained to her that it was done on the bed. Getting married puts restrictions like that".

He's been married for a year now. He's enjoying his honeymoon. He recently held a surprise event for the wife on their 1st anniversary. He says he wants a daughter first, then twin boys.

"I hope those who watch "Love Clinic" understand that love doesn't change. Love has always been there. The subject, method and form of love might change but it's there. Even 20 years later it's going to be there.
