Actor Park Seo Jun shared what it was like to work with actress Han So-hee in 'Gyeongseong Creature'.
On January 11, Park Seo Jun had an interview with a news outlet about his latest work, Netflix's original series 'Gyeongseong Creature'.
Set in 1945, when Gyeongseong (the old name for Seoul) was in its darkest era, the series follows two young adults as they battle against a strange creature born of greed.
Park Seo Jun played 'Jang Tae-sang', a rich man who owns the best pawn shop in Gyeongseong, and the best informant in the area; Han So-hee played 'Yoon Chae-ok', a specialist in finding missing people.
Some viewers observed that the relationship between 'Jang Tae-sang' and 'Yoon Chae-ok' progresses rather quickly after he instantly falls for her upon their first meeting.
When asked what he thinks about those opinions, Park Seo Jun said, "I don't think the dynamics of love would have been the same in the past when things were tough. Lovers back then might not have had lively conversations or spent as much time together as they do now."
"I didn't really question how the two characters developed their relationship because I think people can fall in love with someone after a fleeting glance or a single word spoken. It made sense to me.", said the actor.
Then he went on to talk about Han So-hee, "She always came fully prepared and with great enthusiasm. Watching her made me think I should work harder."
"Each action scene took a lot of time to film.", he continued, "As we approach the end of filming, it becomes a test of stamina. So, Han So-hee and I always tried to liven up the site to keep everyone's energy up. We shared jokes to uplift one another's spirit.", said Park Seo Jun.
He continued, "We didn't have any scenes together at the beginning of the filming process. We saw each other on the set only a few times back then. At one point, we couldn't come across at the filming site for over a month because we didn't have a scene together."
"So I looked forward to shooting a scene with her. When I partner with another actor, I try to go along with their energy as much as possible. Considering how talented an actress she is, I knew that Han So-hee and I would create amazing chemistry on the screen just by exchanging good reactions.", the actor remarked.
"Working with Han So-hee on the site, I noticed how bright her energy is and how she naturally led the atmosphere. Plus, she treats her sunbaes well.", Park Seo Jun said, adding, "With her positive energy, I think greater success will come on her way."
