'The Scion' Kim Kang-woo Interview
On the morning of the 19th, Kim Kang-woo started an interview about the movie 'The Scion' (director Park Hoon-jung) at a cafe in Sogyeok-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul.
Kim Kang-woo said , "I didn't pay much attention" to the issue of fellow actor Kim Seon-ho's private life when he was cast in 'The Scion'.
"I acted while going through all sorts of things. (Kim) Seon-ho didn't pay much attention to the actor's work, and since casting is the responsibility of the director and the director, I thought that actors should only care about their own characters in it. I commented on that issue. I think it's ambiguous to do. I think the director's choice wasn't right."
Kim Kang-woo, who said , "It's not always smooth," laughed , saying, "I used to be sensitive to these various issues, but it's not like that now."
"I don't think these things are anyone's fault. It's not like I'll be acting for a year or two, and it's a cliché, but wouldn't it be a marathon? . I have a far-sighted gaze.”
'The Scion' is about an unknown scion (Kim Seon-ho) in front of Marco (Kang Tae-joo), a boxer who wanders around illegal stadiums in the Philippines, as well as forces with different goals, Han Yi-sa (Kim Kang-woo), Yun-ju (Go Ara), etc. appears and captures the unfolding chase.
'The Scion' will be released on June 21st.
