Lee Joon-hyuk recently met with Sports Chosun somewhere in Samcheong-dong, Seoul, and responded to an interview commemorating the end of the `My Perfect Secretary.'
SBS's Friday-Saturday drama `My Perfect Secretary' (written and directed by Ham Joon-ho and Kim Jae-hong) is a close-up care romance with the perfect visuals of Han Ji-min and Lee Joon-hyuk. The relationship between the female representative and the male secretary also drew favorable reviews.
In the play, Lee Joon-hyuk played Yoo Eun-ho, the secretary of headhunting company CEO Kang Ji-yoon (Han Ji-min). Yoo Eun-ho, a single dad who loves his daughter, is recognized by her colleagues for her outstanding work skills, and has a pure love for her girlfriend Kang Ji-yoon.
Lee Jun-hyuk, who was born in 1984, said in the play that he was born in 1991, "I think these settings are just for each other to understand each other (acting)," he said with a smile.
He played a lot of older roles in his 20s. In "I'm a Legend", he played the role of a father of a child who is eight years older than he actually is. "At that time, I tried to concentrate on the character, such as trying to look old."," he recalled.
This time, on the contrary, efforts were needed to look young. Lee Joon-hyuk "I've lost a lot of weight. I thought he looked younger because he was slim than he was thick." Uh "I changed my voice, too. I used to put my voice down to look older, but this time, I thought I could make my original tone as it is."
He also added his thoughts on Yoo Eun-ho's line in the play, "It's good to get older." "I don't really read fortune tellers, but when I see them on the Internet, they say 'Waiting form'." I hated that word when I was young. I wondered what the point was if it went well when I got older, but now I understand that a little bit."
Meanwhile, SBS's Friday-Saturday drama 'My Perfect Secretary' ended with the final episode on the 14th.
