During a recent interview, Yoon Ji On talked about various interesting things about her role in MBC's drama 'Tomorrow'. Read the full story below.
Recently, Yoon Ji On had an interview to discuss the ending of MBC's drama "Tomorrow". He talked about many interesting things, including his difficulties in acting.
"Tomorrow" is a drama that tells the story of an unemployed man named Choi Joon Woong (SF9's Rowoon) who is forced to become a grim reaper in Jumadeung after an unexpected accident. During that moment, his body lay in a coma in the hospital.
At Jumadeung, Choi Joon Woong works as a member of the Crisis Management Team consisting of Goo Ryeon (Kim Hee Sun) and Lim Ryoong Goo (Yoon Ji On). Deviating from their status as angels of death, they are actually tasked with saving the lives of people who want to commit suicide.
During the interview, Yoon Ji On admitted that she was quite depressed because "Tomorrow" was based on a popular webtoon. He said, "Because this drama is based on a popular webtoon, I felt a lot of pressure."
"I was worried because I've never acted in a 16-episode schedule where I was one of the main characters, and I felt pressured because I thought, 'The bigger the role, the harder I have to work'," he said.
Above all, Yoon Ji On's biggest difficulty is when she has to act tough in heartbreaking scenes. He said, "The hardest thing was that I cried so much while filming the drama. It was filled with painful stories, but Lim Ryoong Goo had to show his most rational side."
Finally, the 32-year-old actor revealed the precious message "Tomorrow" he wanted to share with viewers. He explained, "In the past, I thought that helping someone took a lot of energy, but through 'Tomorrow', I thought, 'I can help a lot of people even with a little attention'."
"Those who are contemplating suicide don't want people to do anything for them, but they want to be heard. I feel that it would be more helpful to just listen to their stories than to give them a big helping hand," he concluded.
Meanwhile, the slot for "Tomorrow" on Friday - Saturday night MBC will be replaced with "Doctor Lawyer". The plan, the drama starring So Ji Sub and Lim Soo Hyang will start airing on June 3. (wk/eval)
