Actor Lim Cheol-hyung, who left a strong impression as the power-type villain An Bo (Vice Minister) Im Do-hyun that provoked viewers' anger, shared his farewell thoughts on the conclusion of 'Manager Kim'.
On the 25th, ahead of the finale of SBS's Friday-Saturday drama 'Manager Kim', Lim Cheol-hyung stated through his agency, Lead Entertainment: "I sincerely thank all the viewers who loved and supported 'Manager Kim' until the very end." He added, "I also express my deepest gratitude to all the actors, the director, the writer, and every staff member who worked tirelessly behind the scenes for the production."
He continued, "This work was approached neither too complexly nor too simply. As a father of two children myself, I could understand Manager Kim Min-ji's father's feelings better than anyone else, and I acted with the hope that he would be portrayed as the most dashing character," revealing his affection for both the work and the character.
He also said, "The filming set with actors Yoon Kyung-ho and Choi Tae-hoon was always happy and enjoyable. Above all, actor So Ji-sub is truly a wonderful person both as an actor and as a human being. I am grateful to have worked with him and really want to meet again," expressing special camaraderie among colleagues.
Finally, Lim Cheol-hyung concluded, "It was a great happiness to spend valuable time within such a fine work. Once again, I thank all the cast and staff, and I will continue to greet you with good works and acting in the future," leaving his final farewell with 'Manager Kim'.
Meanwhile, in the drama, Lim Cheol-hyung played the role of An Bo (Vice Minister) Im Do-hyun, who colluded with Ju Kang-chan (played by Ju Sang-wook) to privately exploit power, realistically portraying the unvarnished face of a corrupt power figure and leaving a strong impression on viewers.
