Question: As for someone like Kim Jaejoong, he does not have too much experience in acting. And Cha Muwon is a unique character—he see***ike the typical perfect successor to a chaebol estate but he is, in a sneaky way, slack and has a funny side. So it does not seem that it would have been easy for an actor to grasp the tone of the character. How did you direct with regards to the acting?
Director Sohn Junghyun: When he had the first practice, he was so tense that I felt very worried. First, I asked Ahn Naesang sunbae who had come in for a cameo— “Hyung, please loosen him up a bit.” Ji Sung and Choi Kanghee also felt that if Jaejoong did well all would do well and so helped him a lot. Jaejoong was not on the side of shrinking in front of the camera, and so I told him to do whatever he wished and I loosened him up as much as I could—and by doing so, I feel that the talent that he originally had inside of him began to show itself starting about the 4th episode.
Scriptwriter Kwon Kiyoung: I feel that he talent, fundamentally. I think that is why the speed of his improvement in one project was extraordinary. In truth the writer does not have many chances to see the actor very often so I do not know well, but I think that Kim Jaejoong himself actually has some sides about him that is similar to the character of Muwon. He is very playful and is a bit of a heodang also, so I think that as the drama progressed, Jaejoong’s own self came out more and more.
