Kim Myung-soo "Choose 'Numbers' after being discharged from the Marine Corps, the merit of being an accountant was great"

Actor Kim Myung-soo revealed why he chose 'Numbers' as his comeback work after being discharged.

On the 23rd, the press conference for the new Fri-Sat drama 'Numbers: Observers in the Building Forest' (hereafter referred to as 'Numbers') was held at MBC Golden Mouse Hall in Sangam-dong, Seoul. Actors Kim Myung-soo (L), Choi Jin-hyeok, Choi Min-soo, Yeon-woo, Kim Yu-ri and director Kim Chil-bong attended the event.

'Numbers' is a human office action drama in which a high school graduate accountant Jang Ho-woo (played by Kim Myung-soo) fights against the absurdity of a huge accounting firm and realizes justice in the most accountant-like but least accountant-like way.

Kim Myung-soo took on the role of Jang Ho-woo, the first high school graduate accountant at Taeil Accounting Firm. Kim Myung-soo, who chose 'Numbers' as his comeback work after being discharged from the Marine Corps, said, "After reading several scripts, I thought I was the first to properly handle an accountant. I chose this work because it had great merit."

He added, "When I first thought of becoming an accountant, I didn't know what I was doing, so I went to Yeouido to do research and Q&A. I saw it in person and studied while looking at the actual working space. I also studied accounting terminology in an easy-to-understand way."

Choi Jin-hyuk plays Han Seung-jo, an accountant who is the only son of Han Je-gyun (Choi Min-soo), vice president of Taeil Accounting Firm. He said, “I don’t seem to refer to references because I learned from Choi Min-soo, who is always next to me when acting. said.

He added, “The story we are talking about is the story of an accountant, but I think the intertwined parts of people are more important. I think that part is more important than accounting.”
