Actor Roh Sang-hyun shared the behind-the-scenes story of filming the Apple TV+ 'Pachinko' series.

Roh Sang-hyun met with Sports Chosun at a cafe in Samcheong-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul on the 24th and said, `I worked hard to manage my diet to look as thin as possible when filming 'Pachinko'.'

Roh garnered global viewers' attention by appearing in the Apple TV+ original 'Pachinko' series. In response, Roh Sang-hyun "Pachinko" is a work that has been tried for a long time, so it remains valuable. The last shooting day is clearly memorable because it took three to four years until the second episode. It was very sad. At that time, he was a god who said goodbye to Seonja (Kim Min-ha), but he also said, "I have such sad memories of saying goodbye to Seonja and saying goodbye to the 'Pachinko' project."

Playing the role of Isaac in the play, he also got the modifier 'Sick sexy' with his thin appearance. Noh Sang-hyun said, `I'm 181cm tall, and I've lost up to 66kg. When I was working as a model, I lost 68kg as much as I couldSince I knew I was going to die from the first episode, I thought I shouldn't be attached to my muscles, so I didn't do my weight hard. It's nice not to work out (laughs). At the end, I tried hard to manage my diet and make it look as thin as possible. I only ate bananas three days before I went into the last shoot,' he recalled.

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.
