[스타톡] ‘The Iron Man Queen’ Lee Jae-won “I overcame my fear of historical drama”

[서울=뉴스핌] Reporter Jieun Lee = “I want to digest the works and characters that are in front of me. I want to continue acting and show them to people.”

Actor Lee Jae-won, who stood out as an ugly older brother and Kandol in the tvN’Youth Records’. He showed off his mip-sang role with his natural virtuous acting, and this time he tried to transform himself into Hong Byeol-gam, the hidden helper of Cheoljong (Kim Jeong-hyun) in’Queen Iron Man’.

“Thank you for loving’Queen Iron Man’ so much. Even though the character of Hong Byul-gam is awkward in everything, I’m grateful for seeing it with a loving gaze. It’s my first time drama, but I don’t get lost, and it seems like I’ve been able to enjoy the character without any big problems. I want to do it haha.”

Hong Byul-gam, in charge of Lee Jae-won, is a hidden helper of Cheoljong, who has the mindset of’It’s annoying, but I have to save the country.’

“Hong Byul-gam is not active in everything, but she is a person who has strong self-love and attachment to the country. I am happy that you have loved him a lot for the comfortable feeling that he has and the appearance that is not being swung somewhere. “Because I had to save it, I approached it a lot. I tried to save it, but I didn’t intervene deeply because it was annoying. I thought I was a character with strong self-love.”

This work is a scandal that takes place between So-Yong Kim (Shin Hye-seon) and King Cheol-jong, the king of two faces, who became the spirit of South Korea’s representative Huh Se-nam through an accident of injustice and had a’the tension of the world’. Here, the hongbyulgam played a great role in evoking the atmosphere of the play, which could become heavy.

“If there are two ways to get into the work, there is a path that goes a little more serious, heavier and more powerful, and there is a path that is pleasant, light and easy to see. I prefer the latter, but I think that I chose it well because it seems that you enjoyed and liked that part. (Laughter). I feel good because what I tried to make it a little more pleasant and brighter seemed to work well. Haha.”

Lee Jae-won participated in works that recorded high audience ratings from her previous work’Youth Records’ to’Queen Iron Man’. ‘Queen of Iron Man’ was on the topic until the end with 14.8% (Nielsen, based on national paid platform subscription). “I think I’m lucky,” he shuddered.

“I think (Shin) Hye-seon is the top contributor to the ratings of this work. It was a character that was difficult to express, but I think viewers enjoyed it because he did so well. Also, the director who directed so sensibly and the author who made interesting work that hits goals. I think I was lucky to get on the honors highway bus. Haha.”

Lee Jae-won debuted in the 2008 film’Kang Chul-jung: Public Enemy 1-1′. It’s been 14 years, but the first historical drama is’Queen of Iron Man. It is a fusion historical drama, not a traditional historical drama, but he confessed that there was a fear from the genre.

“Through this drama, I overcame my fear of historical drama. I was afraid to express the way of historical drama or expressing a period that did not exist. So, I thought that I should reduce the part that had a sense of disparity in costumes and historical situations. I was thinking to look like a character.”

While challenging the historical drama, I put a lot of effort into it, but there was also a regret. Every time I filmed, I prepared not only myself but also ad lib for the other side, led the rehearsal, and showed off the side of the’new maker’, but it was regrettable that everything could not be captured on the camera.

“The writer made it so well that even if I acted only as a script, it did come out well. But it didn’t seem like it came out well in everything. It’s not as much as I was greedy, but it’s regrettable (laughs). With the creation of Chae Seo-eun) Lee and Love Line, there was a personal wish that there would be more episodes of the two, but it doesn’t seem to be released as much as greed.

It’s been a long time since he debuted, but since 2017, he has been working steadily and imprinting his image on the public. In particular, through last year’s’Youth Records’, it has also gained a review as’Candole to believe and see’.

“Casting is not easy, and because it’s an unpredictable job, I think I’ve been working in an anxious and chased mood. I think I’ve been working well in that I have been working even in the midst of anxiety. Just thinking about the roles and scenes given, I think, for 13 years. I don’t have a clear goal right now, but I have a long-term goal. I wanted to have an image of’Actor I can trust and trust.’ But now, I feel like I’ve achieved it a little by saying that I believe and see it. Haha.”
