Actor Roh Sang-hyun expressed his feelings about trying to act as an LGBTQ person through the movie 「The Love Act of the Large City」.

Roh Sang-hyun met with Sports Chosun at a cafe in Samcheong-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul on the 24th and thought it was an acting scene and a scene necessary to express a character anyway"

Noh played the role of an LGBTQ person in the movie `The Law of Love in the City.' Therefore, he thought that it was more important to understand the character itself than the characteristics of " (the LGBTQ+), so there was no big burden. Heung-soo has lived with pain, frustration, isolation, and shame in his male mother, but he later met a friend named Jae-hee and found it attractive to find himself, grow, and develop himself. "When I saw that, I thought he was a friend with a very good message."," he said.



When asked if he had any hesitation while playing the character, Noh Sang-hyun said, `It's not that I didn't care, but I thought it's right to just do it because it's a scene that's necessary for acting and a character to be expressed anyway. I did it with the intention of staying true to my duty"I knew that the director would make a good character named Heung-soo in directing, so I could trust him and do it."," he replied.

In addition, when it comes to the stylistic attention "Heungsoo doesn't want to be noticed, he wants to hide somewhere. And there is no money. They don't want to reveal themselves, so they wear a lot of achromatic costumes."But when they go to a club or go to a free space, they want to express themselves, so they wear leather jackets and decorate them. I wear jewelry, but I don't think I wear it a lot, and I wear it properly and simply one by one.



Released on Oct. 1, the movie is about Jae-hee (Kim Go-eun) of a free spirit who has no way of looking around and Heung-soo (Roh Sang-hyun), who is familiar with how to distance himself from the world, living together and playing their own love method. Director Lee Eon-hee of 「Lover the Shoulder」,"Missing: Missing Women" and"Detective: Returns" took the megaphone. Noh Sang-hyun played Heung-soo, who wants to distance himself from the world.
