Actor Park Hae-jun shares his family's reactions to 'Boksak Sokatsuda'.
On the 6th, a video titled 'It's Not a Crime to Fall for Park Hae-jun Who Returned as Human Intelligence!' was posted on the YouTube channel 'Yoo In Radio'.
In the video, Park Hae-jun revealed that he hesitated to accept the role of Lee Tae-oh in the popular drama 'The World of the Married'. He said, "After watching the original 'Doctor Foster', I realized it was a well-made work, but the role receives a lot of criticism unlike other villains, so I was worried about being remembered that way."
When asked why he decided to take the role, Park candidly shared, "My wife asked why I wasn't doing it, and director Byun Young-joo scolded me, saying 'Your co-star is Kim Hee-ae, why wouldn't you do it?' I tend to trust others' opinions." Reenacting Lee Tae-oh's famous line, "It's not a crime to fall in love," Park admitted, "I didn't realize it was such a harsh line when reading the script. But it's something Tae-oh would say," showing a bright demeanor.
Regarding his transformation from 'the nation's villain' to 'everyone's father' in Netflix's 'Boksak Sokatsuda', Yoo In-na shared, "IU had many crying scenes then, and when asked if it was tough, she said, 'Tears just came when I saw my dad,'" expressing her unique sentiment.
Park humorously portrayed the reality of being a father by reenacting Yang Gwan-sik's famous line, "If things go wrong, run straight to dad," and shared, "My sons can't watch for more than 30 minutes. They asked, 'Can we watch what we want instead?' due to TV time restrictions," causing laughter.
Meanwhile, Park Hae-jun's film 'Human Intelligence' (directed by Ryu Seung-wan) is set to release on the 11th. The story unfolds in Vladivostok, where secrets and truths are submerged in the icy sea, featuring a clash of individuals with different motives, starring Jo In-sung, Shin Se-kyung, and Park Jung-min.
