- Interview with actress Ahn Bo-hyun, who plays Sun Jae-kyu in tvN's Monday-Tuesday drama "Spring Fever."
Actor Ahn Bo-hyun, who plays Sun Jae-kyu in "Spring Fever," added a life character that never existed before.
Recently, Ahn Bo-hyun held a round interview to commemorate the end of tvN's Monday-Tuesday drama "Spring Fever" (scripted by Kim A-jung/directed by Park Won-guk) at a cafe in Gangnam-gu, Seoul.
Spring Fever, which ended the previous day, is a spring-day romance between Yoon Bom (Lee Joo-bin), a teacher with a cold wind, and Sun Jae-kyu (An Bo-hyun), a man with a burning heart, based on a popular web novel of the same name.
Ahn Bo-hyun, who plays Sun Jae-gyu, increased his muscles to 5kg to capture the character's overwhelming physique, and as a result, he completed a visual that seemed to have broken through the original work. In addition, Ahn Bo-hyun, who is from Busan, showed his charm by perfectly showing the indifferent but caring side of "straight forward man" with a native dialect. In addition, he expressed the guilt and hurt behind his healthy, beast-like appearance, and the desperate desire to escape his father's abuse with delicate emotions, giving viewers a variety of emotions.
Ahn Jung-hyun said in response to the ending of the show, "The drama started on a very hot day and ended when it got cold. It feels like a memory because I filmed about 90% of it in Pohang. It's vivid because it's only been two months since the shooting. On the one hand, I think there is an old scene and I have been in touch with the director, the writer, and the actors," he said.
On achieving a successful ending with the target audience rating, Ahn Bo-hyun said, "I don't want to dwell on the ratings, but I was curious because it was a person. It was amazing that it went up little by little. Apart from the ratings, I was grateful whenever I heard that it exceeded 400 million views. It is a work that my family in the countryside liked more than ever," he said, expressing satisfaction.
He also revealed his chemistry with Lee Ju-bin, who plays the opposite role of Yoon Bom. He said, "The synchro ratio is high. I read the book with excitement, but I think we worked well together and filmed comfortably. It must not have been easy to shoot in Pohang, but I'm glad it ended well," he said, thanking Lee Ju-bin.
Actor Cha Seo-won, who plays Choi Yi-joon, also mentioned. Ahn Bo-hyun said, "I did a daily drama with Cha Seowon seven years ago. Even before joining the army, they kept in touch. I was so happy to hear about the casting. I think what I did like a child was captured on the screen. I think the bromance lived well because he acted well without being hated at all. Rather, I think it became a strange triangular relationship, so I think it's because Cha Seowon did well," he said, expressing his special feelings for Cha Seowon.
Regarding the kissing scene with Lee Ju-bin, he said, "I didn't think it was regular to do a nice kissing scene. In my head, Jae-gyu was actually raising his nephew, so I thought he might be single. "I think it looked cute because it showed Jae-gyu's unfamiliar appearance," he said.
He also recalled the shooting of the ending of the tango pose in the second episode. Ahn Bo-hyun said, "I actually didn't like that scene. I was worried that Bom's problem would be drawn lightly because his posture seemed so ridiculous after Jae-gyu saved Bom, but I think he thought it was cute. After that, I think I was also accepted as I saw the story connected when we posed that pose one more time."
He continued, "Even at the scene, they liked my big chemistry (with Lee Ju-bin). Wouldn't it be because there are people who are narrow and narrow. It was awkward to see two people dressed up at the ending, but it was really nice because it was a happy ending. (Lee Joo-bin) is small and good to hold. Thank you for being so immersed in (the romance)," he said.
The romantic comedy genre, which has a happy ending, is Ahn Bo-hyun. In response, he said, "The pain of Jae-gyu was something I had to challenge," adding, "I didn't choose the work because it was a rocko, but I chose it because I thought I could show various aspects. I don't think the actions that Jae-gyu did were really funny, so I think the Rococo aspect was good. I still don't have my mom again this time. Still, I thought it ended with a happy ending after a long time," he confessed, drawing laughter.
Ahn is receiving favorable reviews for his overwhelming physicality and delicate emotional performance. Nevertheless, the chasing scene of the Spring Fever subway was not easy.
"When I read the script, I thought there was nothing physically to do, but I think I've really run all my life in the subway scene," he said, drawing laughter.
"When I saw the edited version, I ran really fast. I'm usually close to Dex, but I run as fast as Dex. The OST went in there and the chase scene lived well, so the subway scene was very good. "I felt good because I felt verified that I could still run like that," he said.
What do you think about the evaluation of an actor who is good at using his body. Ahn said, "There is a burden. Because I think I have to be crazy about my expectations, I tend not to say that I am sick even if I am sick, or that I am tired even if I am tired. I try to do it without an accident. I'm just grateful that I can be exceptional in any way. I'm trying to roll myself as much as I can," he confessed.
He also said, "I like to challenge new genres. Just because you work out doesn't mean that you only get to play the role of an athlete. There are no concerns about image fixation," he said.
As the web novel was based on it, the high synchro rate also attracted a lot of attention. Ahn Bo-hyun said, "I had a ridiculous hair because I thought I should set the synchronization rate to be considerate of those who watched the original work. I thought that would make it look more three-dimensional, so I focused on that part. He explained, "I've fitted clothes dozens of times to make them, and I've tried to gain weight and then lose weight according to the clothes."
He then went on to pursue a body that "I think there will be such a person" rather than an unrealistic body. To do that, you have to fit physically. I tried to make him think, "He's really a business," not a body made of health. In fact, I repeatedly increased and lost weight to find the right body type. I tried to gain and lose about 4kg repeatedly, but it was better to gain some weight. All the other actors were tall, so they tried to make them bigger than their faces to make a difference. Now I've lost about 3kg naturally," he said.
I didn't watch the original. Ahn Bo-hyun said, "I heard a lot that the water level is strong, but I think the director and the writer worked hard to control the water level. There was no better scene in the drama than I thought. There's nothing in particular. I don't have anything other than one exposure at an animal hospital, but I felt it was a success because the viewers said the level was high," he confessed.
Tattooed paltos worn in the play also drew attention. Ahn Bo-hyun said, "In fact, merchants were surprised when I wore (arm-tos) to the market. I was glad that many people seemed to take it lightly. I thought it would be okay no matter how much the original work was, but I'm glad that they thought it was cute," he said.
It was also fun to watch Ahn's comedy setting and dialect acting. In response, he said, "The character Jae-gyu had a lot of comedy elements that came out of innocence. Even if I don't do anything, that kind of side comes out. There were many people from Busan at the scene, but the director opened up a lot about the dialect, so I did a lot of ad-libs. While watching the drama, I remembered a lot of scenes where I thought, "That's an ad-lib too, but you wrote that."
He said, "My friends in the countryside are saying that my dialect is weird. I wondered if it didn't make sense. But when I heard it, they said it was okay. It was not easy to find a point of contact between colloquial and octopus, so I needed more ad-libs," he said.
Asked if there was a similar point to Sun Jae-kyu's personality, Ahn Bo-hyun said, "There are nosies, but not that much. In fact, I was fascinated by the character because I liked Jae-gyu's appearance like that. He doesn't seem to argue or measure. Words can't explain it, but I think there were a lot of intersections with me. Jae-gyu was comfortable and felt "like me," and I felt good to hear "I didn't feel like I acted." He expressed his affection for the character.
If so, will the manly man Sun Jae-gyu and the other person be similar. When asked, Ahn Bo-hyun said, "I'm not an insider like Sun Jae-gyu. But if I think the other person is a good person, I don't tend to be an outsider, but I think there aren't many people like Jae-gyu."
"(Even when we're in a relationship) I'm not the type to do it openly like Sun Jae-gyu. I seem to take care of him without realizing it. It's not tsundere, but it's not good at expressing it. Don't you call people like Jae Kyu "unicorn". I'm not that kind of person. Nevertheless, I think Jae-gyu is so solid that I think it would be nice for my brother to meet someone like Jae-gyu and marry him," he said.
Among the reviews received during the broadcast of "Spring Fever," Ahn Bo-hyun said, "Sun Jae-gyu can't think of anything other than Ahn Bo-hyun." I was confident even before I entered the work. I didn't want to miss this piece," he said.
It was also a great help when I heard that when the director was worried that it would be difficult to implement because there were many cartoon elements, he was told that 'Isn't there Ahn Bo-hyun?' Thank you so much for the favorable comments. I first felt the thought of wanting to do a warm work through Spring Fever. I felt like I gave a happy ending to a character named Sun Jae-gyu, so I felt that everyone struggled, so I felt that I wanted to do this kind of work again in the future."
Ahn Bo-hyun, who won the 46th Blue Dragon Film Award last year, will run as the next film again this year. The filming of SBS' new drama "Jaebeol X Detective 2" will begin this weekend, and JTBC's new drama "God's Marbles" is also scheduled to be released.
Ahn Bo-hyun said, "I'm studying hard because I want to show other characters through 'Jaebeol X Detective'. As we start filming during the Lunar New Year holiday, we have to be familiar with the script and avoid holiday food. I think I need to keep my body well," he said, strengthening his will.
"I thought I didn't have mourning, but I thought, 'I have mourning.' I thought, 'Was it because I was going to receive such a big award?' I want to receive the Teamwork Award for "Jaebeol X Detective." Our teamwork is tremendous," he said, adding that he did not leave out his affection for the next work.
