On Tuesday (8/2), E-Today released video interview content with Park Ji Hu who recently became famous thanks to the Netflix drama "All of Us Are Dead". During the interview, Park Ji Hu revealed that he was also offered the role of a bad student named Lee Na Yeon.
As is known, Park Ji Hu took on the role of the female main character named Nam On Jo. He has extraordinary survival skills when zombies plague his school.
Park Ji Hu attracted attention when saying that before playing Nam On Jo, he was also offered to play Lee Na Yeon. But he turned down the offer, so the character was eventually played by "Squid Game" star Lee Yoo Mi.
Lee Na Yeon herself is described as an arrogant and selfish girl who shows a hysterical attitude when facing a zombie outbreak. He even caused one of his friends to turn into zombies to the point of being antagonized by others.
Park Ji Hu revealed, "During the audition, I received scripts for both roles, namely Na Yeon and On Jo. After reading the script, the director asked me which character suited me the most, so I answered without hesitation that it was On Jo."
He added, "I didn't feel confident about playing Na Yeon. Then I talked to the director about my personality, my previous job and what I know about zombies."
After knowing this, internet users immediately gave enthusiastic responses. "This is very unexpected," said one netizen. "I want to know about the role of Lee Na Yeon's version of Park Ji Hu," added the other netizens and many more.
Meanwhile, "All of Us Are Dead" was a tremendous success and topped the Netflix TV show category worldwide the day after its release. This drama also continues to break Netflix records after beating the achievements of its predecessors, "Squid Game" and "Hellbound". (wk/eval)
