Oct 21, 2024

Lim Si-wan expressed his feelings about joining Squid Game Season 2.

The nation's only local magazine for confident singles "Singles" released a cover and visual pictorial of actor Lim Si-wan's November issue of Singles. In this pictorial held at a ranch in Icheon, Gyeonggi-do, Sim Ji-wan showed off his colorful charm by perfectly digesting his unique deep and dreamy atmosphere as well as his grim and decadent appearance.

Sim Ji-wan is currently filming a Netflix movie 'The Devil'. When asked if there is an intense atmosphere in the wet weather and wet facial expressions because he is immersed in the role of a killer in the play, Lim Si-wan said, `Not necessarily. I think you'll see a stylish killer who likes fashion, not a typical brooding, taciturn character," he said, heralding the charm of a new killer.

Asked if he had tried to pull off a number of actions in the film "The Devil", he went to action school even before he entered the film. I learned boxing and kickboxing from a long time ago," he said, expressing his efforts to digest various characters as an actor. Regarding what he said in past interviews that the least understood was 'Exercise Addiction', "I still don't understand exercise addiction. However, as a job shown, management is essential, so I'm looking for an exercise that I'm interested in, and I'm doing it," he said, adding his honest feelings.

When asked by Lim Si-wan, who has shown various characters with a wide acting spectrum, about the character that is most similar to his real life, he said, "The condition of the drama 'Boy's Generation' seems to be the closest to what I really am." He tries to pretend to be calm, but there's a small part of him inside." Then "Some days I think I'm a very bright person, but some days I feel like I'm a serious person." I think he's a weird guy because he has a lot of emotional fluctuations," he said with a smile.

When asked if there would be anything more surprising to him in the future by appearing on SNL and producing various memes, singing, dancing, and acting as well as a sense of humor after 'Boys' Generation", we should keep showing new sides. "You have to discover and do it for yourself." He also showed his constant willingness to challenge acting.

At the end of the year, much-anticipated 'Squid Game Season 2' will be released. As for whether he felt pressured to join the popular series, Shim said, `I was really grateful and glad to see him. I participated in the work that enhanced the value or quality of Korean content, so I thought it was a perfect compliment as an actor rather than a burden, so I participated without hesitation. I think I felt the pressure slowly while filming.," he said.
