Idol’s acting challenge. It is no longer strange. Many
idol stars have transformed into ‘acting-dols’ through the braun tube,
screen and have tasted both success and failure. Infinite as expected is
no different. Hoya was active in finished drama ‘Reply 1997’ and L is
currently enthusiastically performing in sitcom ‘What is Mom.’ Both
people have been marked by the viewers and have received favorable
comments. Hoya and L, who have attempted a new area and have released a
different charm. Let’s listen to the vivid back story of each ‘Kang
Junhee’ and ‘Kim Myungsoo’s’ transformation.
◆Hoya meets Junhee
Hoya who is doing a cute pose at the set of Reply 1997. Junhee who grew to be a doctor.
Past summer, I did a drama called tvN ‘Reply 1997.’ Amongst
the characters, I tried acting for the first time with the character
Kang Junhee and I received a lot of love I did not predict. The person
Kang Junhee has a complete different personality than mine. Because
(He’s) delicate and detailed, and on top of that he likes a friend that
is a boy Yoonjae (Seo Inguk) without anyone knowing. 2012 Summer, I
lived not as Hoya but as ‘Junhee.’
Even before debut I had vaguely thought ‘I want to try
acting.’ But I started preparing to be a singer and after debut I was
too busy even trying to show my best side on stage that I forgot about
it for a while. Coincidently I did the drama audition and the heart of
wanting to do it previously came back and I started getting greedy.
My company representative seemed to put in a lot of
thought. It’s because I’m not alone but in a group and if I had my own
individual activities there is no way but a encumbrance to happen in our
team. But still I really really wanted to do ‘Reply 1997.’ That time we
were at the peak of our promotions and because I was physically tired I
had worried a lot of people around me but I decided to put all of that
behind me and to become ‘Junhee.’
I had never learned acting and meeting with the director
separately about two times before filming started was all. All the
actors got together and did script reading and we went straight into
filming right after. After determining I’d be in the drama, I was going
to start acting lessons but there was no time I could spare. I only
studied the character by myself and practiced my lines.
The joy of acting came first, I really didn’t have any
greed about the product’s success. I couldn’t even think this drama
would be good. The company didn’t have any anticipation either^^ Because
I started because I was curious about acting I was joyful with just
being a different person in front of the camera.
After finishing and looking back, I think I really
received a generous amount of love. I was just thankful that they looked
at it nicely even though I didn’t even anticipate. And! I thought a
drama was just a drama but, I think there are still people who confuse
my real self and the character. Sunggyu hyung told me this but he said
one of his relatives thinks that ‘Reply 1997’s’ Junhee and Hoya are the
same person! Although I was a little embarrassed, because it was such a
well made product I didn’t take offense to it.
But, our fans will really know. (They will know) that
Junhee from the drama is absolutely not me. Because I am really manly.
hahaha.
◇L becomes Kim Myungsoo
L transformed to ‘Kim Myungsoo’ right now! Snapshot from ‘What is Mom’ press conference setting and filming scene
I became to work on a daily sitcom. MBC ‘What is Mom’ that
started airing it’s first episode on October 9th. I stood in front of
the Braun tube with my real name and I had to match breathes with big
seniors. Amongst the characters, Kim Myungsoo is (Kim) Byungman hyung’s
younger nephew and although he’s good at studying and has good
concentration, he is a character that is a little clumsy in the living
area.
I chose a sitcom as my first product after ‘Shut up Flower
Boy Band.’ Because there is a lot of filming at the set this time, I
experienced a different camera method from outdoor shooting for the
first time. In the beginning it was a little hard to adjust but because
the seniors gave me a lot of help I am learning.

Although there are hard aspects, I’m in the process of
learning and I am happy because I think the hardness is becoming
experience. In ‘What is Mom’ a lot of big seniors come out. Starting
from Na Munhee teacher to Park Misun, Park Seohyung, Ryu Seungsoo, Park
Junghak, Kim Byungman senior. When we do script reading, even now I
tremble a lot. When we did our first reading, I was so nervous that the
hand that was holding onto the script was shaking a lot.
I think I was out of my mind because the big seniors were
all gathered together at one spot. Like doing a presentation during
class time, when it was about to be my turn, my heart would start
beating really fast starting from then. The seniors that saw me pointed
each and everything out and taught me.
When there is time, L that goes outside. This time at the beach click!
In this product, I was preparing to show the twenty one
years old me, Kim Myungsoo. I looked for my everyday habits and would
also write down on a memo my manners. If there was time I would also
practice my lines with the members.
There wasn’t much difficulty trying to be immersed because
he was a character that is bright and optimistic and positive like the
everyday me. I think it is just fun. Because if there is a hard aspect I
can ask the seniors whenever.
Although I have to pay a lot of attention
to the gestures and directions aspects, but I consult those with the
director and I’m also the type that talks it over with the seniors that
are filming that scene with me often. Then it becomes much more quicker
to solve rather than me wondering by myself.
