Sol Kyung-gu, an actor without limits, once again targets viewers around the world with the unique character ‘Cha Min-gyu’.
The Netflix movie <Gil Bok-soon> is an action film about Gil Bok-soon (Jeon Do-yeon), a legendary killer in the hitman industry and a single mother of a teenage daughter, who gets caught up in an inevitable confrontation where she either dies or is killed before renewing her contract with the company. It's a movie.
In the play, ‘Cha Min-gyu’, played by Sol Kyeong-gu, is an MK ENT who brought down the contract murder industry and created the rules. It's a representative. He firmly supports the center of <Gil Bok-sun> as the teacher and boss who recognized the natural talent of 17-year-old Gil Bok-soon and raised him to become a legendary killer. Sol Kyeong-gu's dense acting, which portrays Cha Min-gyu's narrative with colorful and three-dimensional acting, including eyes and facial expressions, ruthlessness befitting the best killer, and resolute action, is also receiving the majority of reactions of believing and watching.
Accordingly, after the release of <Road Bok Soon> on the 31st, Sol Kyung-gu revealed his affection for <Road Bok Soon> through a written interview, raising viewers' curiosity and expectations at the same time.
A. There was no reason not to do <Gil Bok Soon>. Director Byun Seong-hyeon and the filming location were good, the staff and teamwork were good (the staff from <The Scoundrel> also participated in this work), and I decided to participate unconditionally because I thought it was a splendid work.
Q. The character ‘Cha Min-gyu’ drawn by Sol Kyeong-gu
A. He is like a teacher, mentor, and savior who raised Gil Bok-soon. He breaks down Gil Bok-soon's walls and is the person he can trust the most. Although Cha Min-gyu is a cold-blooded man who appears to have leadership and boldness on the outside, Gil Bok-soon is a particularly generous and narrow-minded person.
Q. The relationship between Cha Min-gyu and Gil Bok-soon
A. It is more than a priestly relationship or a father-eul relationship. It's different when Cha Min-gyu deals with Gil Bok-soon. Cha Min-gyu is a character who is like an absolute figure to others, but he makes an exception for Gil Bok-soon. It is a complex, subtle and special relationship in which he is willing to give everything he has and has a blind love for Gil Bok-sun.
Q. Action scene in <Gil Bok-soon>
A. Every action scene has a different concept, so we tried to tailor each scene according to its concept. Even though I filmed action scenes for 3-4 days in a row, I felt a strange sense of pleasure rather than feeling exhausted.
Q. Points to watch chosen by Sol Kyung-gu
A. I think it will be an interesting point to watch if we delve into the relationships between characters such as Cha Min-gyu and Gil Bok-soon, who are priests but have a strange vibe, and Cha Min-gyu and Cha Min-hee, who are brother and sister who are a little different from others.
Meanwhile, Sol Kyung-gu's passionate performance can be seen through the Netflix movie <Gil Bok-soon>.
