[인터뷰①] ‘Switch’ Kwon Sang-woo “I comfortably filmed the kissing scene with Lee Min-jung’s heroine”

Actor Kwon Sang-woo (47) appeared on screen with heartwarming family comedy ‘Switch’.

In “Switch” (director Ma Dae-yoon), Kwon Sang-woo played the role of Park Kang, who goes from being an A-list star to an extreme work manager. ‘Switch’ depicts the story of top star Kang Kang, a star who enjoyed a splendid single life, a scandal maker, an actor with 0 million castings and the moment when his life turns 180 degrees to Christmas.

When asked why Kwon Sang-woo appeared, he said, “It’s a common topic in dramas and movies, but it was fun to switch actors and managers while watching the scenario.

If I did it with Oh Jeong-se, I was confident. No matter how good the script is, there are works that seem burdensome. However, I didn’t want to give up this job.”

He added: “It’s the director’s debut film, but it has a long history. I felt sincere when they said they wrote the script after seeing me. That part also occupies an important part for the actors. I filmed with the mindset that I was going to burn my body on this piece,” he said, shaking.

In addition, Kwon Sang-woo said, “I usually read books and read plays, then meet and talk with the director and that’s it. Don’t shake in the field. I tend to act as I prepared myself and adjust how far the director accept. The director doesn’t talk much, but he was similar to me and we communicated well. It flowed naturally.

“I think it’s as important as acting even if it’s an obvious story to make it funny and heartwarming. I was watching the movie during the premiere, but I was holding back because I felt tears would come out, but Lee Min-jung cried out loud, so I wiped my tears, saying, “I don’t know.” It may be obvious, but I struggled to make it fun. I wanted people to enjoy watching the god hermit crab, but was relieved that there was a lot of laughter at the premiere. I wanted to enjoy acting and I have no regrets.

Kwon Sang-woo acknowledged the credit that he enjoyed the shooting thanks to the actors who worked with ‘Switch’.

As for Oh Jeong-se, who has moved on to star and manager, “When I was shooting the first episode of the movie ‘The Detective’, I made a special appearance. She acted so beautifully. Isn’t Oh Jeong-se getting much love? I felt good because there was a relationship then that I knew. We know Oh Jung-se’s funny side, but when we go to the scene, he’s surprisingly quiet. Thanks to this work, I once again felt that I was a good colleague. I was envious of him because he was multi-talented and I liked him because he was comfortable with him. I want to meet you again in another job.

About Lee Min-jung, who worked as a married couple, she said: “Like a heroine, she is easy-going and kind. There are usually things that bug me when I work with actresses, but he sorted that part out well. I enjoyed filming it. Roughly, I knew the character of civilian government, so I wanted to do well. I also comfortably filmed the awkward kiss scene,” she explained.

She said, “Lee Min-jung showed the book to her husband, (Lee) Byung-hun. My older brother said Kwon Sang-woo plays drums and janggu. I had lunch with my brother a few days ago and he said he liked the script. I also came up with the idea for Lee Byung-hun and Son Heung-min’s ransom lines in the play. Oh Jeong-se asked if she could do it. He was nervous because he touched two people he shouldn’t have touched,” he said, eliciting a laugh.

As for child actors Park So-yi and Kim Joon, “The set was a great pleasure. So cute and cute.

They are child actors IU and Park Bo-gum. It’s so cute and so beautiful, and I think there’s going to be an audience to come see it because of those friends. During filming, both parents were busy answering the phone. I was envious because he said he was organizing the advertising schedule ”.

“What is your wish for the new year? Of my films, “Mentoring My Own Age” (5 million) has not yet surpassed the soundtrack, but I want to surpass it. (laughs) “Switch” is a film that brings laughter and emotion. Hope you catch a happy virus through our movie.” (continue in interview ②)
