Actor Choi Hyun-wook said he made various attempts while portraying a genius boy.

On the morning of the 2nd, Choi Hyun-wook held an interview for the Netflix series 'The Boy at the End of the Row' at a cafe in Samcheong-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul, and shared various stories about the work.

'The Boy at the End of the Row' is a suspense drama depicting the story of 'Heo Moon-oh' (played by Choi Min-sik), a failed writer and professor of Korean literature, who discovers the genius of 'Lee Kang' (played by Choi Hyun-wook), a boy sitting at the very back row of the classroom, and becomes obsessed with his writing. Choi Hyun-wook took on the role of a boy who always sits at the very back row of the classroom, exuding an ambiguous atmosphere in the drama.

Choi Hyun-wook drew attention for sharing a master-disciple chemistry with Choi Min-sik, who is 30 years his senior and a senior figure in the entertainment industry.

When asked about his synchronization with Lee Kang in the drama, Choi Hyun-wook said, "Like Kang, I have a habit of writing something every day, even if I can't write much. It's not like writing about 'how was today,' but rather trying to express what I am thinking right now in writing."

Choi Hyun-wook has previously revealed that he developed a forward head posture from holding the pose for a long time while portraying Lee Kang in the drama. Choi Hyun-wook said, "My forward head posture has improved a lot now. I am always trying to maintain good posture. While acting, I thought about how Kang would have done things, and I tried various approaches. I even created a habit of biting my nails to portray the character. People like Kang tend to develop their own habits, so after some thought, I thought Kang would bite his nails." He added, "Also, in full shots, you can see him shaking his legs. Even if this friend is smart and quick-witted, he is a college student in his 20s and a human being, so I thought there would be some tension, and I tried to express that."
