We didn’t know this could be possible, but we’ve found another reason to love Gong Yoo.
The 42-year-old actor from South Korean met regional media yesterday (Dec 22), at a press conference for his new drama The Silent Sea. He gave an unexpected and quirky response to an innocuous query.
The host asked the cast members of the Netflix series if it was possible to travel to Mars and what they would bring.

Actor Lee Mu-saeng, 41, said he’s afraid of heights so he’d pack a stuffed animal that he could hug.
Gong Yoo, on the other hand, laughingly said: “Do I go to the moon and live there, or do I come back?
“If I’m there for good, I want to bring along a woman to be my wife, so we can [have children and] create a community on the moon and build my own ‘kingdom’! But if I can come back to Earth, I’d bring a device that I can watch NBA games and Netflix with.”

The Silent Sea
The Silent Sea will be a future where the depletion and destruction of natural resources will destroy all life on Earth. Humans must find other hope in order to survive.
Captain Han Yun-jae (Gong Yoo) leads an elite crew on a special mission to the Balhae Lunar Research Station — permanently closed down five years earlier — to retrieve some top-secret samples. The team includes Song Jian (Bae Doona), Chief Engineer Ryu Taesuk (Lee Joon), Team Doctor Doc Hong (Kim Sun–young), Chief Security Officer Gong Soohyuk(Lee Mu–saeng), and Pilot Kim Sun (Lee Sungwook).
The mission is not straightforward and there are many dangers inside the research station.
The eight-episode series will debut on Netflix Dec 24th.
