Shin Seung-ho said at the press and distribution premiere of the movie Only Got Knows Everything at Megabox COEX in Samseong-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul on the 13th. "Since he is a character who has never tried before, I really wanted to act."
Released on the 22nd, Only God Knows Everything is a mystery-tracking thriller in which priestly ordained Dowoon hears a confession about the death of his missing mother and digs up a secret hidden in the dilemma between revenge and faith. Director Baek Seung-hwan of Double Patty took the megaphone.
Shin Seung-ho played Jeong Do-woon, a priest who is in conflict between revenge and faith. As for how he joined the film, he said, `I wanted to act because I've never tried it before"It was interesting to express a character named Dowoon agonizing and conflicting between believers and natural people, experiencing confusion and following responsibility."
He then mentioned the part that he focused on while playing the bride character. Shin Seung-ho thought, `I hope the audience doesn't make a judgment that 'Dowoon will take revenge' or 'I'll endure' from the perspective of the audience. He explained, "I tried to be restrained when acting and expressing it accurately and strongly when expressing it."
