Note: Singer/Actor Seo In Gook appeared in TV Program Taxi on July 19 and talked about shooting Love Rain. He mentioned that he got support and help from Jang Keun Suk.
Here is the brief translation of it:
Seo In Gook: At Love Rain Press conference and interviews, I always would like to say THANK YOU to Jang Keun Suk. This was the first time I challenge acting as a singer. People may think that (acting) is not natural. On the first day of shooting, I was feeling sorry to join the team, but Jang Keun Suk came to me unnoticed, (the MC turned her head and joking: Maybe the Hallyu Star was trying to scare you?) Seo In Gook: He whispered to my ear said: “It I was Kim Changmo, from now on (use this as an opportunity) to become popular. Please try!” Then he left. “The scene of Changmo peeing on the coals that was Jang Keun Suk’s idea. He told me to try to act as peeing on the coals. PD Yoon liked this idea a lot as well, he said this was pretty common during 70s.” There words he have said to me privately that no none else heard. Jang Keun Suk is the guy who opened the first door for me. I always feel grateful for that. When I said THANK YOU to him, he just said: “It’s nothing, don’t mention it!”
When Seo In Gook was seeing the bus with Love Rain paint poster, he bowed to the Jang Keun Suk’s picture and said: Thank you so much. He said he got praise from PD Yoon, these are all because of “someone’s” support.
The following is the program clip.
I believe besides eels all over the world. Jang Keun Suk has touched lots of souls. I love the most of this story is that being a Saengbae as an actor, he was being pretty humble to encourage and support the first timer Seo In Gook. To the people who like to comment of him that is “empty momentum” this is just a perfect prove that he is NOT. He is an outstanding man inside and out.
you can tell how Seo In Gook has been drawn to him ever since Love Rain, now we know why, JKS have left a mark in his life, the same way as he did with ours. He is such an inspiration to everybody that he encounters. He is blessed because he became a blessing to others too.
Our prince really a nice person ^^ so funny when In Guk “meet” sukkie’s poster LOL..l think In Guk really adore him 🙂
Goes to show that he’s not a selfish person nor a boastful one. I love it, it’s like a testimony that he’s not a show-off person. Thank you, Seo In Guk. 🙂
And that’s him….. Our Prince Charming !! Kind … Humble .. Loving .. That is why he is today . Love and respected by everyone of us today ! Long live Our Prince Charming !!! & May God Bless You Always…
“Seo in Gook bowed to the Jang Keun Suk’s picture”, maybe he’s an eel…keke
wow that just demonstrate on how down to earth he is
“MC – Hallyu Star trying to scare you” usual comment from a narrow minded media personnel but thanks to Seo in Guk for clearing his/her false understanding of the situation..
Sukkie is a person who is well grounded despite his superstar status…caring and humble.
this only proves that jks is warm hearted person, even his co- actors on love rain praises hime for the support he showed them during the film locations…..
I apologise, but, in my opinion, you are not right. I am assured.
