Filming of 'Flower of Evil' is paused due to the re-spike of COVID-19 cases in South Korea. It's better (to halt filming) for everyone's safety.

willenette 58,088 Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 *** He resembles Lee Junki a lot. This rookie actor currently plays as the young Lee Junki in 'Flower of Evil.' His role in the drama marked his acting debut. Park Hyunjoon is his name and was active as a singer with his stage name Rue. They are similar in height. He then shared a funny experience he had at the filming site because he looks like Lee Junki. He told, "On the first day of the filming, I wore a school uniform and the staff members suddenly bowed to me 90 degrees. I was so surprised why they would do so to a newbie like me. Later, I found out that they'd thought I was Lee Junki." Pictures credit : kstarlive 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites

chickenchopflipflop83 1,513 Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 I just finished watching Lee Joon Gi's IG live (as translated by the always amazing JG Gunman) and there is one part where he was talking about how he went about performing hyun soo's character. He mentioned that Hyun soo was a difficult character to express dramatically; instead of showing a wide spectrum of emotions, he had to intentionally withhold certain expressions to be able to play him well. In order to understand hee sung's character, he wanted the fans to observe the micro expressions and guess what was intentionally withheld in his performance. I really appreciated the thought put into the performance and i feel his interpretation of Hyun Soo is the main reason that what drives viewer's empathy and attachment to the drama (even though to be fair, most of the characters are quite likeable). I mean, up until now, his character does not get a lot of emotional scenes or powerful dialogue, and those are key building blocks for an actor to establish his/her character well. It is a role that puts a lot of pressure on the actor himself to build that relationship with the viewer, and I feel that he has done so spectacularly. Judging from some key scenes, it seems like the real hyun soo is overwhelmed with fear most of the time. If you observe closely, the actor often withholds this particular expression from his facial performance, but tells us this through his body language. for example: 1) in the basement scene with jiwon, his face portrays anger, but the ragged breathing and shaky body language portrays deep panic and fear 2) when Ji won says that she hates him, hates sleeping next to him or watching him eat, although his facial expression is calm and his speech is steady, Joon Gi takes a sharp breathe in between each line of the script to tell the viewer that the character is panicking/frightened during this exchange. 3) even in one of the previews, where he and jiwon are in an interrogation room, while he stares at his wife with the blank look of a serial killer, his hands are shaking as if he is worried or scared. I think its these little inconsistencies that draw the viewer to Hyun soo's character and make us feel for him even though he was still a mystery right up until ep 8. I really think lee joon gi is such a great actor, i hope one day he will go back to making movies and be more internationally renowned for his great work. 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Covid 19, please go away ... @Tuiwgn, he hosted an almost one hour Instagram live that night of August 26, and actively interacted with the fans. Wearing plain white shirt and later on puts specs. Lee Joon Gi’s visual never fails to make us fall deeper even in the simplest look. What I just noticed was he looked sleepy or just newly woke-up - is it just me? But, he showed that evening his real & usual cheerful and lively side! He was reading the comments and even mentioning their names. Lee Joon Gi was so jolly. He didn’t stop from talking. Remember the popular TikTok whoa move where your arms are in the alternate ways? Lee Joon Gi also did that, right? He even played songs in the background and sang with it partially dancing to the beat. He was also encouraging the viewers to listen and sing. Lee Joon Gi literally spent the night with his fans making them happy & vice-versa. He is so adorable and no doubt why many people love him as an actor and as an individual. 2 3 Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't think he looked sleepy, although he did apologise for having a puffy face during the talk - of which I don't know why he needs to apologise ... But I did notice a scratch under his right eye which he used a lot of make up to cover it up ... And boy, can this man talk and never a bore moment too ( I am following gunman on instagram and got to rewatch it with subs) yet, first and foremost for me, Lee Joon Gi is such a great actor and he is still getting better and better. This is what I admire about him, a real professional , always trying to find ways to improve and to grow as an actor, dedicated and hardworking. I think this is why so many fans have stayed by his side for so long, not to mention his adorable personality , his athleticism, dancing and singing and his look is just unique. I hope to see more of him in future and would love to go to the fan meeting when covid is over... 17 hours ago, willenette said: Lee Jun Ki: European and American Beauty But the image is NOT Lee Joon Gi, JG is far far prettier , (my opinion) The image is ryusdb 柳俊烈, 18 hours ago, chickenchopflipflop83 said: I just finished watching Lee Joon Gi's IG live (as translated by the always amazing JG Gunman) and there is one part where he was talking about how he went about performing hyun soo's character.

JG is amazing in this drama, his subtle and micro expression just draw you into the character. When he is on screen , all eyes are focused on him, he is mesmerising!!! I have to watch each episode of Flower Of Evil at least three times- without sub to focus on the acting , with sub so I know what's going on, and all together to appreciate it in its fullness... I also hope he goes back to making movies and more people can appreciate what a fine actor he is ! 5 Link to post Share on other sites
