In the original comics, Zhu Wunan is a character that people don’t like or even hate, but Ahn Jaehong’s performance is even better than that.

In addition to restoring the appearance elements, Ahn Jae-hong also delicately interprets this 30-year-old office worker with low self-esteem and gloomy obsession with Japanese culture. In the play, Zhu Wunan leaned in front of the screen to watch the live broadcast girl with a confused face, spoke Japanese strangely when he was excited, and pretended to talk to the inflatable doll… All kinds of perverted behaviors brought a lot of shock to the audience. Among them, the scene where Zhu Wunan fantasizes about confessing to Kim Maung-mi in the office, adding the Japanese words “Ayi Nishidaru” after the line “I love you”, is actually an impromptu performance by Ahn Jae-hong, which can be called a miracle. Come on, it can be seen that his understanding of the role is really thorough~
