Shin Seul-gi "Preparing to be an actor before 'Solo Hell 2'"
On the 26th, a production presentation for TVING's original series 'Pyramid Game' was held at CGV Yongsan I'Park Mall in Yongsan-gu, Seoul. Director Park So-yeon and actors Kim Ji-yeon (Space Girl Bona), Ryu Da-in, Shin Seul-gi, and Kang Na-eon attended the event. Jang Da-ah, who was scheduled to attend, was unable to attend due to a positive COVID-19 test.
'Pyramid Game' depicts a cruel survival ranking war in which the students are divided into perpetrators, victims, and bystanders in class 5 of Baekyeon Girls' High School, where outcasts are selected by secret ballot once a month, and gradually fall into violence. It is based on the popular webtoon of the same name (author Dalcognac).
Shin Seul-gi plays Seo Do-ah, the game's host and the school's top FM class leader. Shin Seul-gi said, "I paid a lot of attention to synchronization to play Seo Do-ha. In terms of external aspects, I wanted to bring out the original character as much as possible, so I cut my hair and carefully selected glasses. I also kept makeup to a minimum. While filming, I learned about school violence. “It made me think a lot,” he said.
Do you feel any pressure about taking on the challenge of acting as you have become famous as a contestant on the dating entertainment show ‘Solo Hell 2’? Shin Seul-gi said, "It would be a lie if I said it wasn't there. The more I thought about it, the more I tried to immerse myself in the character. I prepared more to make it look like a character and for viewers to believe in it."
He then recalled the audition, saying, "As soon as I said the last line of the script during the audition, the director gave me the glasses he was wearing and told me to try them on. At that time, I thought I would be Doha."
When asked if she originally had a desire to act, Shin Seul-gi said, "I was preparing even before 'Solo Hell 2'. I had a dream of becoming an actress, so this field experience was the moment I had hoped for. I want to continue to learn and grow well and continue to show myself as an actor. “He hoped.
Episodes 1 to 4 of ‘Pyramid Game’ will be released at noon on the 29th. Afterwards, a total of 10 episodes will be released, 2 episodes every Thursday.
