Jin Seon-gyu "'Count', the work I wanted to hold on to so tightly"
On the morning of the 30th, a production briefing session for the movie 'Count' (directed by Kwon Hyuk-jae) was held at CGV Yongsan I'Park Mall in Yongsan-gu, Seoul. Director Kwon Hyuk-jae, actors Jin Seon-gyu, Seong Yu-bin, Oh Na-ra, Go Chang-seok, and Jang Dong-ju attended the event.
'Count' is the story of Si-heon (played by Jin Seon-gyu), a former gold medalist and My Way teacher who never lets go once he bites, meets a ragtag group of hack-ass students and delivers a delightful blow to the world.
In the play, Jin Seon-gyu plays the role of Si-heon. Siheon is a gold medalist and former My Way teacher.
On this day, Jin Seon-gyu said, "When I received the 'Count' scenario four years ago, the scenario itself was very interesting. It contained many things related to me. It was the story of Jinhae, my hometown, and it was the role of a physical education teacher that I dreamed of before becoming an actor."
He continued, "I wanted to do it because it was an overall story about family, colleagues, a hopeful story, and even boxing. I immediately told director Kwon Hyuk-jae that I wanted to try it without thinking about anything else. I read the scenario with the mindset that 'Si-heon is me.' It was fun. That's how tight it was. “It’s a work I wanted to hold on to,” he added.
Meanwhile, 'Count' will be released in February.
