”The 8 Show” Ryu Jun Yeol, unlike his debut, has become greedy like in ”The 3rd Floor”... ”Going back to basics”

Actor Ryu Jun Yeol has revealed a change of heart after being embarrassed by the greenwashing controversy over his private life. After gaining popularity through the TV series "Reply 1988," he has starred in the film "The King"
He has been loved by many for his roles in dramas such as "The 80s" and "Taxi Driver," and won Best Actor awards at major awards ceremonies for his role in "The Owl."
In a recent interview with Herald POP at a cafe in Seoul, Ryu Jun said,
Yeol promised, "I'll be more honest from now on." "The 8 Show" is a show where eight people are locked in a secret space on eight floors, and "time passes and
The story is about a sweet but dangerous show where you can make money if you take part in it. Ryu Jun Yeol was able to read the script because of the trust he had in director Han Jae Rim, with whom he had worked on "The King."
"I've always loved director Han Jae-rim as an audience member, and I also love my role in 'The King' and the production itself.
I feel happy when I meet again with colleagues, directors, and staff members I have worked with before. I was grateful when I received the offer to appear in the film.
I had previously read the webtoon "Friday" by Bae Jin-soo and thought that his works were very unique and that he delved deep into the inner workings of human beings.
It was also interesting to know that it was based on an original story.
I had fun filming it too, so I think my choice at the time was still the right one."
In the drama, Ryu Jun Yeol plays the role of a "third floor" who joins the show because he is on the verge of debt.
Unlike the characters on the other floors, who all have strong personalities, the characters on the 3rd floor are ordinary and down-to-earth. Ryu Jun Yeol's three-dimensional acting adds to the empathy.
In addition, Ryu Jun Yeol's narration, which guides the play, also plays an important role.
I tried to become a character who can proactively meet the viewers. I have done narration in many of the productions I have done. So it's not that I don't have experience, but with this production, there was too much and I was worried.
It was a burden, but since it was a new challenge, I worked on it with the mindset that there was something I could try.
Han Jae-ri was in perfect harmony with her, saying "Ah" and "Ah"
I was also happy working on the narration with Director Mu. "Above all, Ryu Jun Yeol's actions were so instinctive that he left everything behind compared to his previous works, and he was highly praised.
In response, Ryu Jun Yeol said, "I never thought I was broken," and explained, "I was just acting honestly."
"I've never considered myself broken so it's disappointing to hear people talk like that.
I think it was more of an honest reaction.
He also said that he believed that success or failure would depend on how frank he was, so he acted as frank as possible.
However, Ryu Jun Yeol has had to endure various criticisms ahead of the release of "The 8 Show: The Ultimate Money Show."
Ryu Jun Yeol was photographed on a date with actress Han Seo Hee in Hawaii and began a public relationship, but suspicions of a new relationship were raised, and
In response, Han Seo Hee expressed her frustration over the allegations of her relationship with Ryu Jun Yeol, who is a former lover of the group Girl's
He made a sharp response to actress HYERI from "Day", and the noise about them was endless. And regarding the greenwashing controversy,
"I think it was because of my desire to protect my image," he said, "I'm taking time for self-reflection." "Since my debut, people have liked the image I had and supported me.
But as time passed, I felt betrayed by the fact that it was different from what I had expected, so I took the time to reflect. I still take the time to think about what I did wrong or what I missed.
After receiving so much love since their debut, they were wondering how they could share that love, and that's when they decided to work with Greenpeace.
At first, I started out lightly, thinking I could start with small things in my daily life, but as I received interest, I began to feel like I was being too greedy.
In "The Third Floor," I believe that I made the right decision as an ordinary person, but as a human being, my greed seems to continue to be manifested.
I think that was the case for me too. I think it was a problem that arose from trying to stick to the image that was created.
From now on, rather than focusing too much on what you see and trying to create an image, it is important to return to your original intentions and approach things honestly and sincerely.
It's a process of continuing to think about it so that I can make it happen."
