[Interview] (1) ”Fabricated City” Do Kyungsoo (EXO's DO) ”I'm happy that my first villain role is being well-received... but I also feel a little sad about the reactions of those around me”

*Contains plot summary and spoilers. Do Kyungsoo (DO of EXO) talked about his feelings about taking on a villain role for the first time.
On the morning of the 11th, at a cafe in Palpan-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul, Disney+ original drama
Do Kyung-soo, who appeared in the movie "Fabricated City," gave a round interview. Disney+'s "Fabricated City" is about Tae-jun (Ji Chang-wook), who lived an ordinary life.
One day, he is falsely accused of a heinous crime and put in jail, and when he finds out that it was all part of Yohan's (Do Kyungsoo) plan, he begins his revenge.
On this day, Do Kyungsoo said, "I'm really happy. A lot of people watched it and I received a lot of feedback saying that it was fun. I'm so happy that it was such a 'new look' for me.
"It was the first time I'd been told that I was a part of a work that made me feel like I was a part of something, so I was very happy, and it made me want to work harder in the future," he said.
I was happy because it was proof that they had watched it, but on set, the staff told me "Don't look at me with those eyes," they were hesitant to come near me while I was styling my hair at the beauty salon, and they grilled the meat for me at the yakiniku restaurant.
"There was a time when I was hoping to get the last one but didn't get it. It really happened, and I felt a little sad," he revealed with a laugh.
Regarding his first attempt at playing a villain, he said, "I've just never encountered it before, but I'm sure I want to do it.
I felt more excited than worried or burdened. The shoot was a lot of fun, and I was happy to be able to express myself in a new way. I usually don't express my emotions strongly or raise my voice.
"I'm not a fan of the series, but the experience of screaming and pushing emotions to the limit through a character was fresh and interesting," he said. He also said he was particular about his appearance. "I also thought about my hairstyle and costume.
It may not have looked like it, but it took me four hours to create it. I bleached it, gave it a drill-like perm, cut it into a traffic cone silhouette, and then dyed it black.
"I was worried that it wouldn't come across on screen, but only two people noticed, and in reality, it wasn't that clear. I regret it a little," he recalled.
While there are many different types of villains, he said the following about the character he created, "Ahn Yo-han."
"I have always thought that being simple like a child is more frightening than being aware that you are a bad person. When I watch documentaries about people who have this tendency, I see only one
I thought the way he was so focused on his target was scary, so I reflected that in the character design.
In "Chasing the Perpetrator of the Animal Abuse Video," the children were found to have a lack of social skills from an early age and were known for committing cruel acts against animals.
The story depicted cases that began with the above. I also used that kind of content as reference. I also recalled memorable scenes from Korean and foreign films, and reconstructed and incorporated some parts of them into the story.
When asked, "Were there any scenes where you showed your true self?", he replied, "None at all. It would be difficult if I were like Yohan." He waved his hand and said, "If there is anything similar, it would be that I was able to concentrate.
I can't multitask. I think Yohan is the type who can multitask, but I'm not good at it. I guess we're a little similar in that way. My seniors say I have a "crazy side" to me.
But I don't really know what kind of madness it is," he added.
