Park Bo-gum graced the cover of the October issue of fashion magazine Elle, capturing enchanting moments from his career as both an actor and a young man.
After the photoshoot, an interview followed. Park Bo-gum, who sees every day as a defining moment, shared, “Every day is a moment that will never come back, and today is no different. I am grateful that my life is captured through photos like this, and answering questions today has helped me discover new things about myself. I am still learning about myself.“
Currently filming the JTBC drama “Good Boy,” in which he plays Dong-ju, a former gold-medal boxing champion who became a police officer for the Special Forces for Violent Crimes through the special recruitment system for medalists, he spoke about his experience, “As the energetic Dong-ju, I am living diligently every day. There are action scenes in every episode, so it is not an easy task, but I like it because it is a new challenge. I pray that all the actors and staff can remain safe and sound until the end.“
When asked about his transformation that made him look like a true national athlete, Park Bo-gum explained: “To look like a national representative, I have been watching my diet and increasing my muscle mass. It wasn’t easy at first, working only with proteins and vegetables, but I’m doing my best in the given environment. I truly respect those who maintain healthy muscles through consistent diet and exercise.”
When asked what he considers a “gold medal” moment, or the most glorious and victorious moment as an actor, he replied: “It would be when a project I appeared in is loved and people remember the name of the character I played..”
