[SBS Star] Ji Sung & Lee Bo Young Share How Their Daughter Respond to Them Going to Work

 

 

Actor Ji Sung and actress Lee Bo Young shared how their daughter Ji Yoo respond to them going to work. Recently, Ji Sung and Lee Bo Young's previous interviews where they talk about their daughter have been gaining attention.

 

 

Ji Sung said, "My daughter doesn't really like it when my wife and I go to work. Once, I had to go to Italy for a project. I told her that I was going to go work in Italy for a bit." He continued, "About a week before I headed to Italy, I told her about it. She was like, 'Oh, we can go together then.' When I explained that she couldn't come with me, she got really upset." He went on, "For about half an hour, she cried in the dark and repeatedly said, 'Daddy's not going to play with me when he goes to Italy.'"

 

 

Then, Ji Sung said Ji Yoo mentioned him going to Italy the day before he had to go. The actor laughingly said, "I didn't even mention a thing to her first. But she was like, 'You are going to Italy, aren't you?'

 

Then, she looked straight into my eyes and said, 'I'm not going to kiss you nor play with you after you come back. That's a rule, okay?'"

In Lee Bo Young's interview, she said, "When I used to video call her during filming, she used to hide her face and say, 'I'm not going to show you my face!'" She resumed, "So, Ji Sung brought her to the filming site a few times and explained to her that I was busy working. At that time, I told her, 'Ji Yoo, you must understand that this is what I'm doing when I'm working.'" She added, "But she doesn't really seem to understand. I don't feel guilty though, because I also want my daughter to keep working after she has her own children in the future. I want her to see how I'm continuing to work after having her. I'm sure she'll understand one day."
 

 

Ji Sung and Lee Bo Young got married in 2013 after being together for about six years. Then in 2015, their daughter was born, and the couple welcomed a son in February 2019.

*** I'm looking forward to the chemistry between Ji Sung and Jinyoung in “The Devil Judge”! I also highly anticipate the teamwork between them. It will be interesting to see how they complete their roles as Kang Yo Han and Kim Ga On and what kind of relationship they will portray. He shared about Ji Sung, “I share many conversations about the drama and characters with Ji Sung. When acting, there are times when I feel confused, and he helped and guided me every time that happened. Thanks to him, I’m working happily on set.”  “The Devil Judge” premieres on July 3 at 9 p.m. KST.

*** During the interview of GOT7’s Jinyoung for GQ Korea he mentioned about JS. He revealed that the senior actors had taught him that actors need to make the viewers feel as if the made-up situations and characters are real. He explained that this is the reason why he often asks Ji Sung questions about what kind of gaze he should have or what looks more realistic. Jinyoung shared, “Ji Sung never tries to trap me in a mold. Rather than saying, ‘This is the answer,’ he says this is good because of a certain reason, and that’s also good because of another reason, and I get to select the best option.

 

 

He makes me do it on my own, so I also like that.”

*** "The Devil Judge" is premiering on July 3, and is raising my expectation as it is different from the existing courtroom dramas. 

 

 

[Upcoming K-Drama] Character Guide to ‘The Devil Judge’, A Courtroom Mystery

The enigmatic star judge. Behind his mysterious looks, Yo Han hides his hatred of all humankind. Having had a miserable childhood, he realizes that he could use the human folly to manipulate them at his will. He wants to hunt down the greedy. After 10 years of suppressing his evil instincts and wearing the mask of a sincere and upright judge, he finally completes the stage of the public participation trial broadcasted live to the entire nation. However, Ga On gets in Yo Han’s way to fight the battle to his heart’s content. Ga On, who resembles him so much, bumps into him head-on and tries to stop his actions.

*** The cast of “The Devil Judge” talked about their characters!    

 

 

 

 

 

Kang Yo Han: charisma, vampire’s dilemma

Ji Sung plays the suspicious head judge Kang Yo Han, who leads the live broadcast courtroom show. To describe his character, Ji Sung first used the word “charisma” because Kang Yo Han will consistently stay charismatic no matter what situation.

 

He shared, “In this world where everyone is miserable due to oppression and control, he seems like a lonely vampire rather than a person.” Using the phrase “vampire’s dilemma” to describe Kang Yo Han, Ji Sung raised anticipation for his profound personality.

*** In a few days, one of the most anticipated tvN drama of 2021, "The Devil Judge" will finally be out! Is Ji Sung as Kang Yo Han a hero? Or a demon behind the mask of a judge? tvN uploaded a video of the casts’ on a script reading session. Ji Sung shared that they have been filming since December.  I'm hoping that the series will come out as good as the effort that they give in.

*** We had the premiere of "The Devil Judge." The drama gave us the return of Ji Sung and the reunion of Ji Sung and Kim Min-jung (who both starred in 2007 medical drama New Heart). With a premiere rating of 5.5 percent, I’d say it’s off to a good start.

I think Devil Judge should be number 1 or at least in the top 3! Not saying the other ones are not good but Devil Judge, even only 2 episodes aired to date, is SO good!
