In an interview with the action film `Harbin' (directed by Woo Min-ho and produced by Hive Media Corp) on the morning of the 6th, Lee Dong-wook shared his thoughts on playing Lee Chang-seop, an independent soldier who was opposed to Ahn Jung-geun (Hyun Bin) for saving Japanese prisoners in the Battle of Shin Asan.
Lee Dong-wook "I don't think this work is absolute and very important in my writing. Even if you couldn't do this work, aren't you acting as Lee Dong-wook in another work? I don't want to get stuck in the logic of having to do a big work to become a big actor. I tried to think it was just working as a worker. So I didn't have any greed or pressure for a big work`"Lee Chang-seop, who I played, is also a fictitious person. Unlike Lee Dong-wook and Wook-dong, it seems that there is no funny thing about 'Harbin' was my attitude toward this work.
I didn't feel the burden of the rough face in the near "Harbin". However, I was worried that the beard would feel fake. The filming of tvN drama '9 Miho's '1938' and the early filming of 'Harbin' overlapped a bit. The problem was that '1938' was red brown hair and 'Harbin' was black hair. So I dyed my hair three times in two weeks. It was too much for me because I had to act in reality in the movie "Harbin" while I was doing a fantasy of "The Nine Tails of the Nine Tails" (1938). '9 Miho's love for the drama was great while doing the season system. So with the schedule of 'Harbin', I had to completely finish '9 Miho1938', but there was such a burden. Only '9 Miho's '1938' can't grow a beard, so I put a fake beard on it then, and later filmed it with my beard for more than a month.'
His thoughts on Wook-dong, who is loved by the public, were also extraordinary. Lee Dong-wook "I think it's my sub character. Fans love the song so much. I always hear the story wherever I go. He also won the best picture award for two consecutive years in Pinggye High School. This year's `Pingye High School' award ceremony was attended without any thought. But when I was presenting the award as the winner of the previous year's grand prize, before opening the envelope 'What if I had my name?' 'It's hard?' I imagined in vain, but as expected, Hwang Jung-min received it. Rather than being disappointed, I think I need to get it once more, he confessed, making everyone laugh.
Then "At first, Yoo Jae-seok sang it and went 'Pingyego". I'm not an actor who has no experience in entertainment. SBS 'Strong Heart' and I did a talk show with my name on it. There are many comedians I know around me. I like to have fun on a daily basis. It doesn't take me out of my life to the bottom. However, it was a bit burdensome to receive the grand prize of Pingye High School. I wasn't confident to be funny anymore, but it's bound to be forgotten over time. It's going to be even funnier this year"I laughed.
'Harbin' is a 1909 work that depicts a breathtaking pursuit and doubt between those heading to Harbin and those who pursue it for one purpose. Hyun Bin, Park Jung-min, Cho Woo-jin, Jeon Yeo-bin, Park Hoon, Yoo Jae-myung, and Lee Dong-wook appeared, and director Woo Min-ho of 『Insiders"Namsan's managers" took the megaphone.
