Lee MinHo Elaborates On What Draws Him To His Characters As An Actor In His Thirties

 

lmh-esquire.jpg

 

Recently, actor Lee MinHo appeared in his first pictorial as Louis Vuitton’s Watches and Jewelry ambassador for Esquire Korea. He looked absolutely stunning in all the pictorial cuts, alternating between youthful, refreshing visuals and a more chic aesthetic.

 

In the interview that followed, Lee MinHo spoke about how he's changed as an actor over the years. In his career, he has taken on some amazing and varied roles including those of time traveling Kings to chaebol sweethearts. This time, he will soon be appearing as the shrewd antagonist Ko HanSu in "Pachinko".

 

Lee MinHo shared that as an actor in his mid-thirties, he is now more drawn to characters and stories that are real. He means "real" in the sense that they're actual reflections of the society we live in rather than absurd exaggerations or fantastical to the point that they have no significant import on our lives. The actor further explained by saying that if he's presented with a character that's far from reality, he feels disconnected and it is hard for him to play the character well.

 

However, he did not completely write off fantasy or romance dramas for the future. Instead, he added that he would love to take on such works in the future but they would be much different from his previous works, in essence. He will no longer play the Prince Charming that shows up to save a damsel in distress because such a concept in and of itself is now obsolete.

 

This is the actor and the man we all love and adore! We can't wait for "Pachinko"!

So, does this mean his next project will most likely be the "slice of life" genre?  That's my pick for him.

Yay!! Is that a script I’m seeing? Please say yes!!! 

 

@Areumdaun  I don't think it's a drama/movie script. It might be something else. In the most basic terms, a screenplay or a script is a 90-120 page document, so, that would be thick one. For a spec script, this has to be in a folder with a cover. :kisslevel:

I'm surprised fans haven't enlarged the paper on the desk to read the contents.  Maybe not a script, but a contract?  I know contracts can be lengthy too.  Oh poop, I should have asked for the Esquire interview questions from fans, if there's any meaning to his IG posts or are they random photos?

Top 10 Best K-Dramas To Watch On Netflix


  Sugyani Mohapatra   August 25, 2021 

 

ft.-kd-1-1060x482.jpg.webp

 

Korean drama, or K-Drama, refers to practically any fictitious South Korean television series, regardless of theme or genre. This includes comedies, romances, science fiction, and horror films, to mention a few.

With several series designated as Netflix Originals, Netflix has become the go-to source for finding the best Kdrama offerings for viewers worldwide. The business and structure of K-Dramas have also evolved as a result of this relationship, as well as the wider transition to streaming. With that in mind, whether you’re new to K-dramas or an experienced fan searching for more highly-rated, simply stream able options, here are some of the hottest K-dramas available on Netflix right now.

Fair warning for you all; practically all Korean dramas have unusual plots, but that’s part of what makes them so compelling. All you have to do now is learn to accept the weird and unexpected and enjoy the trip.

 

7. Boys Over Flowers

 

Writer : Yoon Ji-ryun
Director : Jeon Ki-sang
Cast : Ku Hye-sun, Lee Min-ho, Kim Hyun-joong, Kim Bum, Kim Joon
It’s F4’s universe, and we’re simply passing through. At least, that’s how it goes in Boys Over Flowers, a popular Korean drama series that debuted over a decade ago. F4, a group of the most popular and wealthy lads at a private high school, develops an interest in a new lady, a scholarship student from a completely different environment. When you’re looking for a big splurge, this is the place to go. Boys Over Flowers is undoubtedly the one to watch if you want to see what more traditional K-Dramas look like, and it’s still highly recommended over a decade later. There will be a lot of melodrama, old fashion and hairstyles, and a lot of fun.

 

3. The King: Eternal Monarch

 

Writer : Kim Eun-sook
Director : Baek Sang-hoon, Jun Ji-hyun, Yoo Je-won
Cast : Lee Min-ho, Kim Go-eun, Woo Do-hwan, Kim Hyung-nam
This 2020 series is one of South Korea’s most popular Korean dramas, and many people use it to introduce their friends to the culture. Kim Go-eun, who plays Jeong Tae-eul, a police officer in the violent crimes section, co-stars with Guardian in the newer series The King: Eternal Monarch. There are two other realities in this fantasy drama: one is the Korea we know today, where Tae-eul lives, and the other is the Kingdom of Corea, where Lee Gon (Lee Min-ho) reigns as Emperor... 

 

The Movie Culture Synopsis
The South Korean television and film industry has existed for more than half a century, but the last two decades have seen a significant increase in global recognition of the amazing body of work produced. Korean dramas take place in a surreal and lovely universe.

As K-pop, Korean films like Parasite and Minari, and Korean television series take the world by storm, the South Korean ntertainment sector is progressively rising to global supremacy.

Friendly and loving to children, this proves that Lee Min Ho is worthy of being a father

 

The handsome actor Lee Min Ho who is the idol of many circles, especially South Korean drama connoisseurs is certainly no stranger.

Handsome actor Lee Min Ho who is known for his quality actor figure, both in terms of his acting ability and handsome face like a prince.

But not many know that there is another side of Lee Min Ho who is known to be friendly and loving, especially to children.

This was evidenced when Lee Min Ho shared his Vlog who was joking friendly with the crew who certainly didn't have the same popularity as Lee Min Ho.

 

Well, Lee Min Ho's loving side can be seen in one of the Instagram posts of @leeminho_fans_minoz which shows the handsome actor playing with children.

It looks like Lee Min Ho's loving face looks like he doesn't feel forced when he invites the child to play. His smile, which is known to be sweet, always appears when he interacts socially.

Not only that, there is a portrait of Lee Min Ho who is playing with a tiny baby, and he holds him freely and looks like he loves the child.

So that's the other side of Lee Min Ho, who is actually very close to children and is also known as a friendly and loving figure.
