In his latest work, "Queen of Tears," he played the role of Hong Soo-chul, the younger brother of the protagonist, and attracted even more attention. Kwak Dong Yeon will be visiting Japan for the first time in about six years and will be performing at "Kwak
Dong Yeon Japan Fanmeeting 2024 ＜HEARTS＞ was held at Mozart Hall, Katsushika Symphony Hills in Tokyo.
Kwak Dong Yeon appeared on stage, decorated with heart-shaped balloons, wearing a grey outfit. He was greeted with loud applause, and seemed a little nervous.
The opening song was "Thought Of You" by John Park. "Nice to meet you, I'm Kwak Dong Yeon. Thank you for filling up the venue today.
Thank you for welcoming me so warmly. I'll do my best to make it a fun time! When asked by the MC if he was nervous, he replied, "I'm very nervous!
" She answered in Japanese, "I was fine during rehearsals, but when I got on stage and saw everyone's faces I got even more nervous," she said, looking embarrassed.
The title of this fan meeting, "HEARTS", comes from Kwak Dong Yeon's official Korean fandom name, "Simjanggwakdong (Hearts)".
The title comes from the Japanese word for "heart," which means "a close relationship," and we wanted to express just how important the heart is, so we decided to use the English title "HEARTS."
When asked what he had eaten since coming to Japan, he replied, "Yesterday I had sukiyaki. The day before yesterday I had tonkatsu.
"I was able to try it," Dong-yeon said happily in Japanese. "We have tonkatsu in Korea too, but the Japanese version is crispy and juicy!" His eyes sparkle as he passionately explains, which is endearing.
In the first corner, "What kind of person is Dong Yeon?", Kwak Dong Yeon looked back on his acting career with a video of his TV series. He originally wanted to debut as a member of a music band, but
He was also taking acting lessons, and happened to pass an audition, which led to him suddenly debuting as an actor. When asked how many years it has been since he debuted at 16, Dong-yeon said,
She was about to answer "20...", but the MC interrupted her, saying "What! 20 years? That would make you in your late 30s," so she panicked and corrected herself, laughing, "I was wrong! It's 12 years."
In the TV series "Moonlight Drawn by Clouds" that she appeared in in 2016, she played Kim Byung-yeon, a guard who supports the prince Lee Yong, played by Park Bo-Gum.
The loyal character made actor Kwak Dong Yeon's name known to the world. "I've always wanted to do a swordplay action movie. I wanted to walk and rest while holding a sword.
"I practiced a lot on how to make the characters look like that," he recalled. He also tried his hand at romantic comedy in "Fight for My Way" and "Gauss Electronics." "I think I can express comical scenes more realistically.
"I'm careful to be careful. I usually observe people closely and try to remember how they behave in these situations," he said, explaining his role preparation.
In his latest film, "Queen of Tears," he plays the role of Hong Soo-cheol, a third-generation chaebol who loves his wife and son even after they betray him.
Regarding the scene where they go looking for the girl, she said, "We shot inside the house, in the parking lot, and on the road on different days, so it was hard to keep my emotions in check. I hope that the MC will make sure we don't have a similar shooting schedule in the future."
"Could you please ask the staff to look at the camera as well?" he asked the MC, making the fans laugh. Next was the section where fans asked questions, "I want to know everything about Dongyeon."
So, we took a closer look at Kwak Dong Yeon's personal side. When asked by a fan who has been supporting him for 10 years, "Is there anything you've been using for a long time or music you like?", he replied, "First of all,
"Thank you for watching over me for the past 10 years," he said, bowing deeply. "I've always listened to John Mayer, and I like Korean singer Yoon Do Hyun. I also have a deep love for things.
I tend to wear a lot of clothes, so there are a lot of things I've been using for years, but when I buy something new I forget about the old ones (laughs)."
In response to the question, "What do you consider important when choosing a work or a role?"
"I like characters that are human. Rather than the perfect characters that only exist in TV Series, I try to choose characters that have shortcomings or are like us in our everyday lives," he said.
He also revealed his policy as an actor. A male fan who likes weight training asked Dong-young an unexpected question: "What is your favorite muscle part?" Dong-young was surprised. "I'm so grateful to have male fans.
I never imagined it. Thank you for sending me your precious feelings like an older brother and a younger brother. What I like is the arms (biceps and triceps) and the lower body.
It looks cool when you can see your biceps and triceps when you wear a shirt," he replied, and the conversation turned to muscle topics, including the questioner's favorite muscle part and whether he drinks protein.
Dongyeon once again gave the fans a song as a gift. He softly sang the OST "Fallin'" from the TV series "Queen of Tears," and the first part ended. In the second part, he appeared in a leather jacket and with a guitar.
He appeared on stage holding a guitar and sang Masaharu Fukuyama's "HELLO" with great enthusiasm. The fans were excited to see him playing the guitar, which is something they rarely see in everyday life. He also surprised fans by blowing up the heart-shaped balloons he had prepared.
She was nervous while singing and didn't seem to notice the balloons in the audience. After she finished singing, she said, "Wow! It's beautiful! Thank you!"
"I haven't played for over three years, but I wanted to show a different side of myself, so I prepared this!" she said with a smile.
Next, we moved on to the "Challenge! Dongyong" corner, where fans can play games together.
Then, Dongyeon played a J-POP song so that only Dongyeon could hear it through his earphones, and he improvised a song to go along with it. The fans were then given the mission of guessing what song he was singing.
Dong-yeon, who was relaxed, asked the three Reshi fans, "Do you listen to music often? Have you had your hearing tested recently?" with a bit of joke. He passed all three questions with flying colors. High Five with the fans
The next mission was to challenge Dongyon to draw, which he is not good at. By the way, Dongyon's three biggest weaknesses are "swimming, dancing, and drawing." "The subject is too difficult!"
After struggling to complete the drawings, the fans were perplexed by the unique touch of each drawing. However, with the power of love for Dongyeon, this mission was also completed with flying colors. The drawings were then signed on the spot.
After the game corner and photo time, the stage suddenly went dark. Behind Dongyeon, who was confused, the screen showed the messages from the fans.
As the prize video was played, they stared at the screen with serious eyes. And as soon as the video ended, the fans in the venue all raised the slogan, "Dongyeon! Sarang!
"Hey!" Dongyeon cried out, and tears welled up in his eyes. "Please wait five seconds," he said, turning around to calm himself down and saying, "Thank you so much for all your support.
"I'm grateful to my fans. I'll continue to do my best," he said, expressing his gratitude to his fans. "I prepared a lot of things to make everyone happy, but I ended up receiving more than anything.
I feel so grateful. I'm so grateful for all the energy and support I've received from you all. I hope you'll continue to love my "big eyes," "big mouth," and "acting."
I would like to treasure it and continue to be active for a long time. Thank you very much," she said as she left the stage, savoring the amount of love she received from her fans.
At the end, he appeared again with his guitar. "I found a great song, so I'd like to share it with you all," he said,
The Fan Meeting ended with a moving finale, with a perfect rendition of "Horizon" by "number" in Japanese. ■Kwak Dong Yeon Japan Official Fan Club
