On the 7th, tvN 'Uquiz on the Block', actor Um Tae-gu, who was ranked No. 1 as a top-rated actor for the recently ended JTBC's Wednesday-Thursday drama 'Playing Woman'. Even for national MC Yoo Jae-seok, the appearance of Eom Tae-gu, a young man wearing a noir mask, made everyone nervous.
Eom Tae-gu asked for a job at 'Uquiz' three years ago, but suddenly refused to do it because he was so nervous that he couldn't act because of "Uquiz". I was filming the work, and I was nervous because I kept thinking of 'Yuquiz' on the spot.
Yoo Jae-seok said, `I understand. Still, it's impossible to cast him even if it interferes with his job, right?" he laughed. As for the reason why I decided to appear after three years, "I wanted to express my gratitude to the viewers because the drama went well, but I thought it would be good if they contacted me and came out. Also, I came out because my mother said it was my wish."
The most recent lie was "I told you that I was not very nervous in the waiting room..." which caused laughter.
Viewers who watched the drama said in the comments that it looked like a "I'm Solo" special, but I felt good because it was a compliment that it was real"I've been playing strong characters or villains with strong lines, but it was a huge challenge because it was such a different romance genre. I was scared, but I wanted to try. There hasn't been a day without a shoot in the past eight months. Once I put it down at the scene, I continued well with that feeling."
He dropped out of a high school that trains non-commissioned officers in the Air Force to become an actor and entered Konkuk University's film department through a qualification examination, and is also the director of Eom Tae-hwa, whose brother is the film 'Concrete Utopia'. Eom Tae-gu has worked together on six works. When my brother paid his own money to shoot the independent movie 'Yingguji', I was worried about the production cost and couldn't sleep, so I felt really sad when I saw my brother dozing off while shouting action.

But Um Tae-gu thought a lot that he should quit acting because he was not talented"I was very scared to go to the site because I couldn't fit in and adapt well because of my personality. I felt like I was going into a grave," he recalled.
Director Eom Tae-hwa also said "When I was in the directing department, Taegu appeared as a minor role, and he played the Japanese military 1 role. It's a Japanese line, but I couldn't say it because I was too nervous. There was a time when filming was delayed and there was trauma about it, so we had a hard time together."
Eom Tae-gu said of the financially difficult times because the work was not coming in "There were too many. Yoo Jae-seok's song "As You Say It" gave me strength. I've been behind on my monthly rent for 24 months. The landlord understood that I live hard. I lived in a rooftop room, and I worked as a construction site worker or part-time at an event. When it snows, I sweep the stairs of the house and put it in front of the delivery door, and he?? wanted to do well quickly."
Eom Tae-gu's turn in his acting life was made in the film "The Confidential" (2016). He "There were a lot of scenes with Song Kang-ho, and I was very nervous. Of course, I thought I wouldn't be able to audition, but it was a miracle to pass, and the first scene was the confrontation with Song Kang-ho, and they were all considerate. It's the scene I'm pushing into, but he accepted everything and told me to do more. I kept looking at each picture at the time. To resemble each other. After the first shoot with Song Kang-ho, I was resting in the corner, and my eyes met with him, "Isn't it hard?"' That's what happened.
That was really touching to me. He also said, "I was able to adapt because he invited me to hang out outside the scene."

Eom Tae-gu said, "I got my first coffee car during "Secret Agent" and it's true that I couldn't go out and send my manager because I was embarrassed because it was my first time getting a coffee car." Going on a cafe date in the past again?? As for the rumor that his girlfriend fell asleep because he was so quiet, "I went on a military vacation 20 years ago and it wasn't my girlfriend. The other person didn't like me and I had a crush for a long time, but I couldn't speak because I was nervous. The other person didn't really sleep, but he was on his back with a cushion. I haven't seen him since. You seem to be living well."
Um Tae-gu says, "If you're in a relationship, do you prefer the other person to come first?When asked ", `That would be great.'
There were autographs when we debuted, but there were rumors that we couldn't do it because we were shy. Now, the sign is almost as good as the name of the pavilion.
Regarding his concerns these days, Um Tae-gu said, `I'm worried about whether the shooting is okay now. I wanted to make it a little more natural," he said, and left a video letter thanking Yoo Jae-suk and Jo Se-ho for the first time as a guest.
