"Seo Dong Yo" Special (Part 4)





Part 4 carries on where Part 3 left off. The actor who plays Seo Dong's father, the King, says he has been acting for 40 years when he plays father and son for the first time with Jo Hyun-Jae in "Only You" and now for the second time in "Seo Dong Yo". He feels like they are father and son, and even though he feels Seo Dong's pain and suffering, he never has the chance to take care of "his son". If they ever play father and son again, he promises he'll take good care of JHJ (at which our Hyun-Jae smiles very shyly and sweetly and nods in acknowledgement.)

MC says Lee Chang Hoon (who plays Moraksu) looks much older in the drama than in real life. Lee says he's a young man but in SDY he has to look older, so he feels older too. MC says the scene of Moraksu and Mo Jing embracing on the beach is like a grandfather and granddaughter embracing -- to great laughter.

Another actor says he plays a strong man in the drama, but he has his soft side too. He would like to play someone "to be protected" for a change.
