Another interview of Ji Sung was released today. Here is an excerpt with Jaejooong ^^.
Q: How were things with Kim Jaejoong who does not have too much experience in acting yet. Apart from the love line with Noh Eunsul, the “Cha-Cha Couple” also gathered quite the popularity. (laugh)
Ji Sung: Acting is not something to be taught and so there is a limit to giving advice. I just let him hear of my own experience and we shared conversations on how we wished the characters of Cha Jihun and Cha Muwon would meet. Jaejoong is a friend who is enough to also become an actor (in addition to a singer). I believe that this is a result that came about because he immersed himself into the character with perpetual humility. We also benefited from this effect. If even one person falls, the story itself becomes shaky. On this point, I was extremely thankful to Jaejoong.
Q: The scene that most the most impression (with me) with regards to the two men was when the two fought for Noh Eunsul in the restaurant. They clutched at each other’s hair and fought and in the end Cha Muwon shot a “straight-arm fist” to Cha Jihun. I heard that this was your idea.
Ji Sung: I did not want (us) to fight with charisma. The two are cousins and so when young they must have fought kicking and headbutting and they must have also played house. As we talked with the martial arts director as to how to express this, an idea came about. Yes, let’s pull the hair! (laugh) Let’s both pull the hair and let’s fall down with the neck twisting. At this, let’s squeeze the neck and the leg and even wrestle. After getting down the lines of movement like that, I asked Jaejoong. “Are you good at fighting?” “Me?” “No, not you. Is Muwon good at fighting?” “I think he has never fought?” “That’s so, isn’t it? I also think that he has never fought. Then it seems that you and I won’t fight with structure. Let’s hit while holding your fist like this!” The eyes burn into the other but the fist is a straight-armed one. Haha.
Q: It was very pleasant to watch the four become not merely a simple four-cornered love line but rather good friends to each other. If this were to expressed naturally it seems that there must have been a process in which the actors also became close as human beings. How was it.
Ji Sung: When people who have never met before sit down together to read the script it is awkward. Since the drama’s genre is bright also, I suggested that we all go on a trip before filming. I thought it would be nice if we have a bonfire and drink a bit of soju and talk. On the trip, we asked each other this: What kind of a person is Ji Sung? What kind of a person is Jaejoong? What kind of a person is Kanghee? What things do you like? As if we were playing truth and dare. It seems like questions out of nowhere but we needed a process for getting to know each other.
