Actors Jin Seo-yeon and Heo Jun-seok shared their thoughts on acting in a romance.
On the 10th in the afternoon at the Stanford Hotel Korea in Sangam-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul, TV CHOSUN's new Monday-Tuesday drama "No next life" held a production presentation. Actors Kim Hee-seon, Han Hye-jin, Jin Seo-yeon, Yoon Park, Heo Jun-seok and Jang In-seop attended the presentation and talked.
"No next life" is a comic coming-of-age drama about three 41-year-old friends exhausted by the daily sameness, the parenting war and the hamster-wheel like work life, and their chaotic efforts for a better "complete life."
In the story, Heo Jun-seok plays Byun Sang-gyu, a senior in the university theater club of Jo Na-jung (Kim Hee-seon), Gu Ju-young (Han Hye-jin) and Lee Il-ri (Jin Seo-yeon), and a manual therapy practitioner. In particular, Byun Sang-gyu is also the character who draws a love line with Lee Il-ri. To this, Heo Jun-seok said, "Love doesn't care about age. Whether in your 20s or 40s. When we faced someone we love, the feeling felt the same. I think that's how we approached it," sharing his romance chemistry.
He added, "Lee Il-ri seems like a 'teto woman' but in front of love she gradually becomes an 'egen woman,' which might be different," conveying the unique charm of their couple. To this, Han Hye-jin said, "The two said it's their first melodrama," which surprised the audience.
Heo Jun-seok said, "I did a bit in 'Be Melodramatic,' but this is the first time I've done melodrama from start to finish. Facing Seoyon jokingly without guns, knives or tools, just completely bare, feels awkward. I felt like I should give her something," and added with a laugh, "It might become a turning point in my life."
Jin Seo-yeon, who plays Lee Il-ri, also said, "It's my first time doing melodrama and the great thing is I don't kill anyone. There is no blood in my drama. Isn't it the first time to face someone and smile? It's even cute and this time it's very 'egen-egen.' Please look forward to it a lot."
Meanwhile, "No next life" will premiere tonight (the 10th) at 10 p.m.
