Actor Kim Myung-min explained why he had a three-year hiatus.

Kim Myung-min recently met with Sports Chosun at the Nuri Dream Square Business Tower in Sangam-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul, saying, "I haven't had much time to communicate with my son"The last three years have become a precious time that cannot be exchanged for anything else."

Genie TV's original drama Your Honor, which first aired on the 12th of last month, is a fatherly instinct confrontation between a judge covering up his son's murder, a criminal gang boss chasing his son's killer, and two fathers who decide to become monsters for their children. Director Pyo Min-soo, who directed 'The Moon in the Daytime', 'The Third Charm', 'Producer', 'Iris2', and 'Full House', participated as creators. On top of that, director Yoo Jong-sun, who directed 'Paper Moon', 'Eosa and Joy', '60 Days, Designated Survivor', and writer Kim Jae-hwan, who wrote 'Boy's Generation', gathered expectations. Kim Myung-min played as Kim Kang-heon, chairman of Woowon Group, who is in power above the law.

Kim Myung-min returned to the small screen three years after JTBC drama 'Rocool'. Time flew so fast that he wondered if there was a three-year hiatus. That's how good I was to spend time with my son"When acting, the three-year gap did not come as a burden. Rookie Kim Myung-min and current Kim Myung-min are the same. He said, "I am always serious when it comes to dealing with the work, so my mindset and attitude have not changed much."

As for himself, he described himself as an ordinary father of a family. Kim Myung-min said "The past three years have been a precious time that cannot be exchanged for anything else for me. I didn't have time to communicate with my child, so my mom mainly took care of me"I started playing golf because I showed a talent for sports in the first grade of elementary school, but I quit when I was in the sixth grade of elementary school. After 6 years as a player, I started studying late, so I had a hard time."

He then approached the game because his son likes games. I dug the game for three nights and four days, and it's not as good as my son, but I'm getting to a similar level of skill. After that, I went on a road trip to the United States"Now I'm close enough to have a small talk with my son. We are like best friends than anyone else, he said.

When asked about the reaction of his son who watched 'Your Honor', Kim Myung-min said "Maybe he watched the drama once or twice" "He's into games because his enlistment date is just around the corner (laughs). If there is a scene where I come out in a cool way, I go into my room with a happy smile. "Honestly, I can't tell my family to watch the drama I come out in. It's embarrassing to watch it with a lot of people. I'm embarrassed to be on the screen, so I secretly monitor it by myself," he said, smiling.

Meanwhile, 'Your Honor' is a total of 10 episodes, and the 9th episode will air on Genie TV, Genie TV Mobile, and ENA at 10 p.m. on the 9th.
