After debuting in 2017 on Prison Playbook and making a good impression with his eccentric charms for 18 Again, he has once again caught the viewersŌĆÖ attention with his ruthlessness in NetflixŌĆÖs original, Sweet Home. Lee Do Hyun talked about working with Netflix for the first time in a video-call interview with Sports Chosun on the 23rd. ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs an honor to be working for a Netflix original piece, and IŌĆÖm grateful for it. IŌĆÖve heard that the show had ranked in the Top 10 in more than 70 countries. It is truly amazing. IŌĆÖm very thankful for that, and all the staff who put their efforts.ŌĆØ Lee Do Hyun drew attention as he played the role of Lee Eun Hyuk, a character with unyielding leadership. ŌĆ£I considered a lot about how I could communicate his worries and thoughts to the viewers through my eyes in midst of a restricted state. I carried on as I contemplated how to send a message without facial expressions. Such directions in acting were introduced by the director, which I then analyzed and prepared for.ŌĆØ ┬Ā People either hated or loved his leadership style which was at times inhumane. ŌĆ£We wanted people to either hate or love it. ItŌĆÖs an amazing response. For me right now, I agree with his decisions because choices which can save lives are those which are realistic and extreme.ŌĆØ ┬Ā Lee Do Hyun originally auditioned for the character of Cha Hyun Soo. ŌĆ£I prepared for Hyun SooŌĆÖs role as I wanted to play as him. I think heŌĆÖs everyoneŌĆÖs wannabe. I went to the audition thinking that heŌĆÖs a character with contrasting sides, but the director gave me the script for Eun Hyuk. I didnŌĆÖt realize that I got the role even after the audition had finished. Once I got the news, I was really glad. Then I reread the Webtoon with a focus on the character of Eun Hyuk. While he cooperates with Go Min Si who appears as his adopted sister in the series, the viewers call them ŌĆ£a forbidden coupleŌĆØ, which Lee Do Hyun agrees to. ŌĆ£Though unintentional, even the staff on set said it did look like we were a couple. Min Si and I tried our best to portray a brother and a sister in case we slipped in romantic elements. Unlike the original webtoon, she and I appear as siblings who did not share any blood, so we became affectionate.ŌĆØ The romantic chemistry of the two will be available to be seen in MayŌĆÖs Youth (literal title). ŌĆ£After IŌĆÖve told myself that I would focus on my acting when a speck of romance was noticeable in Sweet Home, we were confirmed to star in MayŌĆÖs Youth. We told each other that we would display a ŌĆśreal chemistryŌĆÖ this time around. Now IŌĆÖm in the process of reading scripts with fellow actors.ŌĆØ Lee Do Hyun is an actor who is expected for his future changes. ŌĆ£My priority for next year is to be good at acting. IŌĆÖd like to return to screens with diverse images. IŌĆÖd also like to have a go at a movie if I get the chance. The genres I want to give a try to are proper action, and film noir. I wish to attempt acting that displays my manly side.ŌĆØ ┬Ā Source (1)
