Actor Jeong Ryeo-won (43) mentioned a scene in which he was resonated in 'graduation'.

Jeong Ryeo-won met with Sports Chosun at a cafe in Gangnam-gu, Seoul on the afternoon of the 9th and had an interview with the end of tvN's Saturday-Sunday drama 'Graduation' (written by Park Kyung-hwa and directed by Ahn Pan-seok).

Jeong Ryeo-won melted into 'Graduation' with a high synchro rate that made him hear that he was a real one-stroke instructor. "As soon as I received the script, I watched the fourth part, and at the time, my father was from Australia, and I kept taking Korean language lectures on YouTube. So my dad was like 'When are you going to listen to your dad's song?' and I think I just kept listening to the lecture. I slept while listening, and I learned how to speak. I thought I might have missed my school days because I couldn't spend it in Korea, but I think that's why I kept listening. I tried to get used to the lecture by continuing to listen even though I didn't get something."

Jeong Ryeo-won then said, "There was a couple who met at the same academy and actually got married, and I received advice, and I watched the video I sent to my children and the video of teaching, and I thought, "You teach like this." Each teacher has his or her own personality. With the teacher who advised me, I'll master this one thingI thought ' but he was teaching while playing storytelling. I found it attractive. So, he went to the academy where the children were taught and secretly observed the class, and since the children went around ten or eleven, he practiced writing until dawn. Also, I think I received a blackboard from actor Jeong Kyung-ho and practiced the pansori hard. I spent last summer as a signer. So I thought it would be nice if there were a lot of writing, so I said 'Just come out', but the director wasn't very good. 'It's in the script!I don't need 'to do it. I'm a little disappointed to hear that. In fact, there was more lecture scenes after that, but the director cut them. We gave more than two lectures, and fortunately, tvN gave us an unscheduled episode. But that's not all. I did it for a long time, but it came out for 40 seconds on the show," he said with a smile.

If Jeong Ryeo-won was like a real instructor, there were even reactions that Sang-seop (Kim Song-il) might have brought a real high school teacher. Jeong Ryeo-won is "Pyo Sang-seop is "Isn't he really a teacher?"'He did. He did a lot of plays, so I learned the charm of plays. I wanted to do it so badly because I usually work with the people who play. So I asked him to give me the script if he had a chance, and he wrote in his diary that he really wanted to try the play."

Jeong Ryeo-won then said "Pyo Sang-seop's 12-minute lecture resonated personally. We went into the set after filming all the outdoor scenes from Part 1 to 13, and since Choi Seon-guk Academy was outside, we took the scene before the first face-to-face meeting between Sang-seop Sang-soo and me. She came without makeup, so she was going to roll up her sleeves and do rehearsals, but she looked like a real teacher. He sharpened his knife a million times somewhere. So, during the rehearsal, he said, 'I have to go home. I should hurry up and memorize the lines. If we meet at school, we can get in troubleIt occurred to me that ' I didn't even know the contents of the lecture that the teacher gave and Lee Kwang-soo's book called 'Mujeong', but I wanted to read it after listening to the teacher's lecture. I heard that many viewers felt the same way. Actor Kim Song-il was excited while acting. It didn't appear on my face, but I was excited and felt like I was riding a jokdu. The actor really does that for him, but I can't lose either. I should go home and practice the 28th scene of the first part. "I thought I should do really well, what I encountered at school..." he confessed.

Jeong Ryeo-won said, `I liked the scene the most, and I was worried that the viewers would like it. It was 12 or 13 minutes long, but I think I delivered the message because he insisted that our drama is a drama that needs to be watched carefully with all the lights off. I was respectful in that I could take that risk and put it on the air."

Graduation is a work about a true adult romance that develops each other through the love of Seo Hye-jin (Jeong Ryeo-won) and Lee Joon-ho (Wi Ha-joon) while dealing with the difficult topic of contemplation and reflection on entrance examination education, which is buried only in exam skills, set in Daechi-dong academy district. In particular, in the final episode, all the characters grew at an important inflection point in life and ended with lingering feelings. The final episode marked the end of the year, with an average of 7.4% to 8.1% in the Seoul metropolitan area and 6.6% to 7.3% in the country, ranking first in the same time period including cables and general service.
