Actor Lee Hyun-wook (41) shared his impressions of working with senior actor Kim Kang-woo (48) as a father and son in "Munmu."

The production press conference for KBS 2TV's new historical drama "Munmu" was held on the afternoon of the 12th at The Link Seoul Hotel in Sindorim-dong, Guro-gu, Seoul. Lee Ho CP (Chief Producer), along with cast members Lee Hyun-wook, Jang Hyuk, Kim Kang-woo, Jung Woong-in, Kim Do-hyun, Baek Seung-hyeon, and Choi Ye-bin, attended the event.

"Munmu" is a work that depicts the desperate and lonely epic of leaders who stake everything on a single victory amid 600 years of war and upheaval within the Three Kingdoms.

On this day, Lee Hyun-wook, who plays Kim Beop-min, spoke about his experience working alongside Kim Kang-woo, who portrays Kim Chun-chu as his father in the drama.

He began with a joke, saying, "I've heard many people say that '(Kim) Kang-woo and I don't look like we have much of an age gap,'" before adding, "On set, I actually called him 'Father.' My senior took care of me and guided our emotional exchanges well. I received a great deal of help from him."

He continued, "All my seniors were like that, but Kim Kang-woo in particular treated me warmly. At first, when viewing the character of Kim Chun-chu as Kim Beop-min's father, there is a perspective that he has a rebellious nature and harbors dissatisfaction with political tendencies and such, looking at things negatively. However, the process involves gradually understanding and being persuaded by his father's heart. My senior handled this emotional line very well, so I benefited greatly. Therefore, I can confidently say that our chemistry was perfect."

"Munmu" consists of 28 episodes in total, with the first episode airing at 9:20 p.m. on the upcoming 14th.
