The broadcast of August 16 of Jtbc’s Get to know Bros (Liberation Day special), Lee Jung-Hyun appeared together with Choi-Sung and Jang Ye-Won.
Lee shared, “I was able to participate thanks to my ancestors. My maternal grandfather was a honorary of national merit.” Feeling this, Lee Soo-Geun joked, “Those who called someone like him” Japanese “are in big trouble now.”
Lee then revealed the medal of honor of her grandfather, saying: “After his disappearance, in 2020, he was assigned the order of Merit stringing Hwarang. It was a veteran of the Korea war and had many metal fragments inside his body. When he prepared to put him in the national cemetery, he had to be cremated and so many tracks came out.” Kim Hee-Chul bowed into the apologies, while Seo Jang-Hoon added, “When you appeared Mr. SunshineI thought they had actually launched a real Japanese. This should be widely known because many people still misunderstand you as Japanese. “
Lee recalled that he sang the national anthem to the celebration of the day of liberation. “It was the 73rd day of liberation. As a descendant of a honorary of the national merit, I was invited. I thought my grandmother would look with pride, so I sang it aloud.” He explained. However, Lee Soo-Geun commented jokingly, “Do it during a choir is considered bad manners.”
Lee then admitted, “I received many complaints asking why a Japanese sang the Korean national anthem. Since it was immediately afterwards Mr. SunshineThe misunderstanding was even greater. “
Known for having often interpreted the Japanese bad guys, said Lee, “The works that left the biggest impression were Anarchist from the colony, Three wars of the Kingdom – Imjin War 1592AND Mr. Sunshine. I think I used many Japanese in those roles. “
Lee, who also studied abroad in Japan, added, “During the university, I went in return for a year to learn Judo. But I couldn’t speak Japanese like a native. Fortunately, I had many friends of the Korean actor of Zainichi as Oh Sang-Yoon and Han Geon-Tae who helped me a lot during the projects.”
When asked “The writer Kim Eun-Sook asked you to speak Japanese during your hearing for Mr. Sunshine? “, Lee revealed, “In fact, I didn’t try a try because I was chosen because of Anarchist from the colony. I think that’s why I did well. “
He added, “I wanted to immerse myself, so I practiced a lot – even small gestures how to protrude the language. Some of those habits still remain.”
When he was asked if he feared being typographic as a bad guy, Lee admitted, “I worry a lot, but sometimes I also come cast in romantic roles. Honestly, I think playing the bad guys gave me more opportunities. For example, I also appeared in The good guy – Even if I was a bad person there too “, He said with a laugh, using the moment for a little self -freedom.
