Video of SHK's HK TWTWB promotion (thanks to freshspring):

Here's a quick translation of the video:

The news anchors start out saying that maybe because of Kyo's frank personality, her love life hasn't been as smooth and Kyo said she's weary (don't know the exact word to use because I really don't know how to translate this phrase to English) of relationships because either she was hurt in the past by others or it's hard to let go and forget.  She also said getting marry is a hard thing to do.  Even though she has this past experience, she really likes her single life and enjoys her work. 

This part is the interview part. The reporter starts out saying Korean beauty, Song Hye Kyo came to HK specially to promote her and JIS' drama, TWTWB.  To greet everyone with her best appearance,  she didn't even go out last night when she arrived in HK.  She stayed at her hotel and exercised.  She do want to tour around HK though.

SHK said she really likes HK and often comes to HK, whether it's for filming CFs or for visiting friends.  She has many friends that live in HK so she comes to see them.  She also knows many famous landmarks and shopping places in Hong Kong and she loves this particular seafood restaurant and hope to bring her staff and crew there.

Lol, I just saw @khxy's post.  Sorry, my connection is really slow and freezing on me. So I'm just going to paste her part in this.  Many thanks, khxy dear

She continues that Director Kim is famous in Korea  for shooting beautiful scenes and close up.The crew and actors suffered quite a bit in shooting some scenes at the scenic location.Her most memorable scenes is when she walked up the snowy mountain in episode 8.They tried for 3-4 times but due to the bad weather,they couldn't complete the shooting.The music accompanying that scene makes it beautiful.
She has been in the industry about 17-18 years and she doesn't have a special feeling when wearing bridal gown for drama filming,maybe because she has done it for a few times.But if she was to get married and wear one, she thinks that she will feel special in it.She will tell us how she feels when that day comes.
As she grows older, she has lesser expectations towards what her prince charming should possess. She thinks they should have the same hobby and interest and there should be good communications between them. He should have faith and trust in her work. She doesn't mind having a husband of different nationality because as long as 2 people are in love, it will surpass everything. Maybe she will learn Cantonese if her partner is from Hong Kong.
She is looking forward to work with Takeshi and Huang Xiao Ming.

Here's another part where they ask which HK actor would she want to work with.  She said there's actual many actors she would like to work with.  Since she worked with Tony Leung in the Grandmaster and in the next John Woo film, she will work with TK and HXM, she is very fortunate already.

He had not fussed over nothing. The Zo In-sung that met with reporters had somewhat let go of his lonely character Oh Soo but the six months during which he carried the depth and weight of “That Winter, the Wind Blows” was not an easy time for the actor. TenAsia met with Zo and looked back on the drama that was so harsh and painful to him.

 

Q. I heard you cried a lot after shooting the last scene.

Zo In-sung : I held onto [Kim] Bum and cried a lot. I thought, ‘This is crazy’ after shooting the last scene, for which I did the scene where my character records a video message for Young. But it was hard to say my lines that were two pages long because helicopters kept flying nearby every five minutes. I think it was harder to control my emotions because I ended it also feeling so nervous.

 

Q. It took you a long time to choose a project following your discharge from the military.

Zo : I don’t know why. It’s not like I’m trying to become a millionaire (laughs). There was no particular reason to it but I think I rested for longer than I expected to because filming for my movie “Kwon Beob” (translated title) kept getting pushed back. And I didn’t know what I should do because I was ready to do a movie but filming continued to get delayed. There also weren’t that many other choices because by then, they’d finished casting. 

 

Q. How did you feel when you first started filming “The Winter, The Wind Blows”?

Zo : I really wanted to die. I thought it’d be doable at first but once I actually read the script, I was at a loss. I couldn’t even figure out at which moments I should breathe. I was just so unfamiliar with everything. So I went to an acting teacher and practiced drawing forth each emotion. That’s when I naturally came to think that I shouldn’t ead into this script one dimensionally. The emotions my character had for the dead Hee-joo, the pressure he had to commit a fraud, the guilt he felt to Young after he falls in love with her, then the tension from being chased by Mu-cheol… . He was a character that felt so many different layers of emotions that I ended up thinking, ‘Why is the writer doing this to me?’ (laughs). But actress Bae Jong-ok said I probably wouldn’t get another chance to play this sort of character and consoled me by saying that she wanted to die when she did KBS drama “Lies” (translated title) but didn’t. And I really didn’t die (laughs).

Q. You’re a male actor but many have said you’re as strong as actresses when it comes to crying. 

Zo : Acting out crying scenes are still the most pressure for me because people end up talking about them for a long time and do parodies of them as well. Nonetheless, I tried to do the crying scenes differently [from in the past] because the writer told me, “You’re older and you’ve changed so viewers will see you differently even with the same acting.” So I thought that as long as I’ve convinced viewers of my emotions, it wouldn’t matter how I cry. I think it was around episode nine that the writer finally told us to stop crying although there were still a lot of crying scenes afterwards as well (laughs).

 

Q. Is there a particular scene that even you think you looked cool in?

Zo : I think the scene in episode nine where my character saves Young and smothers a gangster’s face across a brick wall is the type of scene that every male actor would want to try out at least once during their career.

 

Q. And which scene do you think was the most romantic?

Zo : There was a scene where Oh Soo puts on Young’s socks for her, as if he was her father. I think it showed him as both a boyfriend and father. When looking at the part of the script that mentioned that scene, I thought of how fathers so affectionately help their children put on their socks. I wouldn’t have been able to understand that scene when I was younger but it made me proud to think that I do now.

 

Q. What do you think is the reason Oh Soo, who hadn’t placed much significance in life, wanted to live till the very end?

Zo : The whole time I thought, ‘Why does he want to live? Does he want to meet his mother?’ I don’t know for sure. But I do think that he wanted to say that his mother may have abandoned him, his girlfriend died, and lives every day of his life pointlessly, but he still wanted to live. That he is living so we should as well. Our country has the highest suicide rate amongst OECD countries so I think that’s what the drama may have wanted to say. Live and through love, find your reason to live.

 

Q. I heard that you had to reshoot the scene where Oh Soo gets stabbed by Jin-sung (Kim Beom).

Zo : He had a bit of a hard time filming that scene because Beom’s emotions didn’t explode. He sobbed when I told him, “You did good” afterwards. So I remember giving him a hug.

Q. Have you managed to let go of your character?

Zo : I felt really strange while at home the day after we had our wrap-up party. So I called the writer but I started crying. And I cried for over two hours, for no particular reason, while asking her for just a few more scenes and that I’d do a much better job with them. She listened to me the whole time and told me not to put too much into my roles, that it’d shorten my lifespan. So I don’t know why but I just cried then.

 

Q. There were different opinions regarding the show’s ending.

Zo : We had already shared the fact that it would be a happy ending so I think producers made it look like Oh Soo had died to just add tension. Like a story from a fairytale. On the other hand, I also think they made the ending seem dreamy because Soo and Young had such a hard time loving each other.

 

Q. I think you must have higher expectations of projects you take on from now on because of “The Winter, the Wind Blows.” 

Zo : That’s why this is also a dangerous time for me. Because I’ll want to have the desire to feel what I did with this show. I’m trying to enjoy this moment because it may never come again, although I’d be very grateful if it did.

 

Q. You must also feel like you won’t be able to do another drama for the time being.

Zo : That’s actually want to ask [of people]. If I did a new drama in a few months, I don’t know if it would be a gain or loss for me. They’ve told me to hurry and do a new drama again but I don’t know if it would be right to do another romantic drama after such an intense drama. I think I should give time for viewers to forget [about Oh Soo]. I tend to bring out what’s within me for my acting so I won’t be able to get rid of what’s me. I think that’ll be my justification to wait (laughs).

 

Q. How do you want to age as a male actor?

Zo : The word ‘anti-aging’ is a scary word. Ceasing to age could mean you’re dead. I think I’d be lucky if people saw that I age naturally.

 

Q. If you had to score your acting right now, what would it be?

Zo : I’d give it 70 points. I’ll fill the remaining 30 by improving on my acting 10 points every 10 years.

Here is the TVB Entertainment video

They are basically reporting the same thing from yesterday, but there is an interview at the end.  SHK said she's open to dating guys from HK, but will have to give her some time to learn Cantonese first so they can communicate .  They mentioned the fan meeting and how the fans were all excited and happy to see her.  She played games and took photos with them.  She was really nice, talking and laughing with her fans.  The lady interviewer asked her what was the most memorable experience when she was filming TWTWB and Kyo answered the snow mountain scene in ep. 8.  It was beautiful.  She also talked about the challenge of playing a blind heiress in the drama and it's her first time playing such a role.  She went to a center for the blind to observe their lifestyle and she learned a lot from them.  The interviewer asked her which HK actor would she like to collaborate with (she asked this question in Korean).  If there's a chance, she would like to work with Leon Lai and Andy Lau because she admires them.
