"Love On The Menu" actors revealed a masterful performance scene in which the actors became their characters.
With the first broadcast of the new KBS2 weekend drama "Love On The Menu" (writer Lee Kyung-hee, director Hong Seok-gu, produced by Monster Union, Contents G) set for the 25th, the production released on the 18th behind-the-scenes stills showing the actors' sincerity and mutual consideration as they remained in character off camera.
Ha Seok-jin, who plays Kim Moo-jin, a restaurant Oner chef with perfect credentials, did not let the script leave his hands as he deeply immersed himself in the character's emotional line, and Ahn Heeyeon, who plays Han Gyurim, a side-dish shop employee who finds her smile again after overcoming hidden wounds, demonstrated unwavering concentration even among numerous staff members.
Ha Seok-jin said, "Because this is a work with a long breath, while the focus on one or two scenes is important, I am also paying attention to stamina management to maintain the overall rhythm," and Ahn Heeyeon said, "Despite the busy schedule, thanks to the warm atmosphere I am enjoying every moment of filming. I learn a lot while working together."
Park Yoo-na, who captivated the set with a completely different, 180-degree charm from the cold Cha Gyu-young in the play, reportedly played the role of the set's vitamin with her distinctive bright energy and mischievous smile. Also, Bae Jung-nam is said to have completed the Choheung-sik character with his own color by carefully observing the character's movements and the nuances of the lines.
Kwon Hae-hyo (Jang Hoon-tae) and Yoon Yoo-sun (Go Yoon-hee) showed the weighty presence befitting acting veterans, while Bae Yun-gyu (Han Gyu-o) and Jung Bo-min (Kwon Hee-na) emitted fresh chemistry that eased the tension on set and added a sense of freshness, according to reports.
The new KBS2 weekend drama "Love On The Menu" is a family recipe drama about two men and women who gather the fragments of a broken family to set the warmest table in the world. It follows the currently airing "Recipe For Love" and will premiere on the 25th at 7:55 p.m.
