Eom Tae-gu met with Sports Chosun at a certain place in Gangnam-gu, Seoul on the morning of the 5th and responded to an interview to commemorate the end of 'Playing Woman'.
'Playing Woman' is a romance drama full of twists between his eldest brother Ji-hwan (played by Um Tae-gu) and Eun-ha (played by Han Seon-hwa) who play with children after ending their dark past.
After ending the dark past in the play, Um Tae-gu played Seo Ji-hwan, who ran a meat processing company 'Thirsty Deer' amid the world's prejudice, and at the same time lived as a single mother for 36 years.
Eom Tae-gu, who challenged romance comedy for the first time since his debut, caught viewers' eyes and ears at once with a unique transformation. The reaction was also enthusiastic, as it ranked No. 1 for four consecutive weeks.
Eom Tae-gu, who is famous for his usual 'shay' personality, drew attention by saying that he does not use 'national messenger' KakaoTalk. He "I don't think I need much. I usually text and call often. (By the way), the people who work with me felt frustrated, so I'm communicating by e-mail these days," he said, making him laugh.
When asked if the increased number of global fans would be curious about Um Tae-gu's daily life, Um Tae-gu said, `I'm talking with the company, and I'm thinking about how to repay my gratitude to my fans, but I'm thinking about opening an SNS channel.'
We are also discussing meeting with fans offline such as fan meetings," he said.
JTBC's Wednesday-Thursday drama 'Playing Woman' ended with the highest viewer rating (3.0%) based on Nielsen Korea on the 1st.
