Kim Se-jeong said in a press conference for MBC's new drama `The Moon flows on the River' at the MBC headquarters in Mapo, Seoul on the 30th that `Kang Tae-oh is an actor with good eyes' and `It's a good timing with the jokes.'
'The moon flows on the river' is a 易 fantasy historical drama about the change of the soul of the crown prince who lost his laughter and the 肢 who lost his memory.
Kang Tae-oh, Kim Se-jung, Lee Shin-young, Hong Soo-joo and Jin-gu are raising expectations by building a generational lineup.
Kang Tae-oh will play the role of Crown Prince Lee Kang, who is in the process of deputy cleansing. Lee Kang's inner self, which seems profligate and unruly on the outside, is hidden from the wounds of losing a loved one due to a power struggle within the building. Attention is drawn to Kang Tae-oh's transformation, which will express the charm of Crown Prince Lee Kang, who silently endures the weight of the royal heir and dreams of taking revenge one day.
Kim Se-jung will play the role of Park Dal-yi, a natural vice-president. Park Dal-i, who has lost some of her past memories, is a person who continues the sold-out procession with her extraordinary adaptability, incorporating into the life of the deputy compensation.
Kim Se-jung, who tried her first historical drama, said, `I was very worried. When I tried it, I had to study the acting of Bakdal a lot. I have to study dialect and Lee Kang's character. There was a lot of research to do, so there was still less tension. Instead, I tried to save the cool hanbok of the historical drama."
In particular, Kang Tae-oh and Kim Se-jung, who will write a dramatic romance between the dignified crown prince Lee Kang and the free-spirited deputy compensator Park Dal wandering around the Joseon Paldo, are also drawing attention. They will immerse themselves in the process of two characters from different worlds meeting and bickering and permeating each other.
It seems that Lee Kang and Park Dal-i closely watched each other's performances in that their souls changed. Kang Tae-oh said "I talked a lot during rehearsals on the spot and asked for a lot of advice. I caught Sejeong's unique habits and facial expressions unconsciously coming out. Kim Se-jung has an energy bar-like appearance, but it is still intact for Dal. I tried to take it well even when my soul changed." he nodded.
Kim Se-jung said, `I thought the direction of expressing their characters was the same. I got a lot of help while talking to each other about the appearance. Isn't there a drama that's famous for playing two roles. I asked Ha Ji-won. He said it was important to share a lot of breathing with the other actor. He told the story that he asked Ha Ji-won of 'Secret Garden', famous for his soul-changing romance comedy.
As for breathing, Kang Tae-oh first "I think that such energy, such as breathing, chemistry, and good relationship with the other person, is well contained and influenced in the play. It was good again this time. So I'm looking forward to it from the perspective of the viewers watching the show."
Then Kim Se-jung "I feel the same way. When I take a loco, I think the triple beat is important. The first is the atmosphere of the scene. I always laughed to the point of giggling. In particular, it was fun to make jokes and greetings with Tae-oh. The second is how to save Roconi and comedy. Comedy has to be well timed. Should I make it funny?If you do it, you're good at matching it on your own. Third, I think eyes are really important. Among many actors, I think he has really good eyes. When I look at my brother's eyes, romance is made well," he boasted of his chemistry.
MBC's new Friday-Saturday drama 'The Moon flows on the River' will premiere at 9:50 p.m. on October 31.
