[TRANS] 230328 Kwon Yuri Star News Interview (Part 2)

Jung Ilwoo, from <Bossam> to <Good Job>.. Now the sense of comradeship is developed.

The ENA drama <Good Job> is a heroic-romantic investigative drama involving a man and woman with special abilities: a conglomerate detective and a job seeker with super vision. <Good Job>, the follow-up drama to <Extraordinary Attorney Woo>, broke through the pressure and recorded the highest viewership rating of 3.1%, showing a heated response. Above all, the most talked about was the title of the drama. Just like how it being revealed in the release press conference, the title <Good Job> drew attention as it was known as Kwon Yuri's idea.

According to Kwon Yuri, "This was also my first experience with it. I didn't approach it with the intention of renaming the drama. I had a lot of experience releasing albums as part of Girls' Generation. I have done a lot of work where the story is vividly remembered with just one photo and one title, so I wanted (the title of) our drama to have a strong emotional impact," She stated. "I considered it from the perspective of the viewer, and I believe I listed 25 titles while speaking with the management team. The work was a lot of fun. I also spoke with Jung Ilwoo, the director, and the writer. I believe the production team listened with an open mind." she elaborated.

As a result, she poured a great deal of affection into <Good Job>, particularly for the role of Don Sera. Don Sera possesses superhuman vision and is a 'professional any job catcher' who is willing to accept any job offer that comes her way. Due to a series of events, she becomes involved with Eun Seonwoo (Jung Ilwoo) and embarks on a tumultuous romance. According to Kwon Yuri, "It was fascinating to meet a character who possesses supernatural abilities. Using supernatural powers to help someone in reality was progressive and cool. The character changes in every episode. This is actually an actor's fantasy and dream. It was also the reason why I wanted to be an actor. So it was attractive."

In the drama, Don Sera tries to do her job perfectly, but gives a laugh with her sloppy side. This kind of appearance seemed to be very similar to Kwon Yuri in personality. She stated, "I am extremely grateful that you saw me in that light. When I play a character, I take what's inside me and use it, as all actors do. So it's possible they felt that way. When my coworkers see my usual appearance, they usually tell me, 'Use this when acting.'. I think that’s why I gave the impression that the synchronization rate (between Yuri and Don Sera) is high, making Don Sera and I appear well-matched."

The meeting of Jung Ilwoo and Kwon Yuri is the most unique aspect of <Good Job>. The two had previously collaborated in the MBN drama Bossam> and met again in the drama <Good Job>. There were obvious concerns surrounding them at the time of the initial casting confirmation, but the two demonstrated a new affinity through flawless collaboration. It received such a positive response that some speculated, "The 'Bossam' couple was reincarnated". Jung Ilwoo had previously expressed similar concerns, but he later admitted, "(The role) has a different social status than the previous one, and the new character is a conglomerate and a detective rather than a troublemaker. I assumed that the resolution of the romance that I could depict would be significantly different."

Kwon Yuri also said, "Honestly, I had some concerns regarding the casting. There were many people who thought well of <Bossam>, so I wondered what I should do if the good memories fade because I don't do well (in <Good Job>)? But come to think of it, among the dramas I enjoyed watching, there were seniors who had partnerships several times. Like actors Jisung and Hwang Jungeum, for example. I opened my heart because I expected such a path to exist," she stated. "I really wanted to do well after listening to my co-actors and directors who believed in what Don Sera had. Also, because we had previously worked together, I believe I could act comfortably," she recalled the filming location at the time.

“After working on a project together, the depth of the relation changes. Especially in historical dramas. I (with Jung Il-woo) developed a combat power and comradeship. So it felt like we had a really different and meaningful chemistry. It's really easy and happy to do a new work with a colleague who has this mindset. It was easy because we understood each other a lot"

Not only Jung Ilwoo but also Kwon Yuri had action scenes in Good Job. Especially in the final episode, when Don Sera is kidnapped violently. "There were so many male actors, and (Jung) Ilwoo is good at action (scenes)," Kwon Yuri said. I simply did everything as I was instructed. The kidnapping scene was horrifying and terrifying, but it all worked out thanks to the skilled method. Ilwoo and I talked a lot on the phone, but instead of saying "Hi," we said "So regarding this scene..." as soon as we answered the phone and talked about acting.

oh hello hello! i quite liked mystic pop up bar 😊 initially i got hotel del luna vibes, but tbh this can totally hold its own weight. it’s a really simple plot, but executed quite nicely. i had some reallllly minor tiffs here and there. but hah, by the end, i was sad to part ways with the little sanggap food cart family :(

also askdjfh fair fair, i am also guilty of skipping a few eps when it comes to cdramas 😶 tbh i was in it for the cute fluff and light watch after some heavy documentaries i had just finished. where can i get a friend like zi rui though PLEASE he was a laugh and a half

Mystic Pop-Up Bar Ep 5

Tried to restrain myself from talking about an ongoing drama but I couldn’t get this out of my head.

Mystic Pop-up Bar; starring Hwang Jungeum, Choi Wonyoung, Yook Sungjae.

Gif not mine

To others, it’s just another drama that is similar to Hotel Del Luna. But to me, the stories hit closer to home for this one. Every episode talks about a different story, a different trouble from a different person. 

And why ep 5? Ep 5′s troubled customer was an old man, who apparently had been very forgetful. When he visited the pop-up bar after having a long and rough day at work, and which he missed the bus as well on the way to his office, weirdly Kangbae’s spilling-secret ability couldn’t work on him. Could it be Kangbae’s problem since it didn’t work on Yerin before as well?

The mystic team was supposed to catch a wandering spirit that was reported to be around their area. But all they saw was just a spirit without its proper appearance. They knew it was someone related to the old man as the spirit was following him around. But they couldn’t find it anywhere, not even in his house. 

Forgetful poor man was then scolded by his superior one day for missing a big meeting with a supplier/buyer from China, after forgetting his own house’s password as well. When suggested to retire or half-retire, he declined that idea with the reason of wanting to send his wife to a vacation, who he doted on, loved and cherished. The first half of the episode showed how this old couple relied on each other; how the husband had been proud about his wife’s dumplings, and how the wife took care of him well. 

With that reason, his superior shockingly asked, “did you forget about that as well?” 

What did he forget? 

“Your wife passed away.”

He couldn’t take the truth well. His world collapsed. His sickness that caused him to be so forgetful, which he refused to treat and refused to admit it, erased the memories of his wife leaving him. It was as if he was in a denial as well, refusing to believe that she has left him behind, all alone to face this cruel world alone, and to continue his path alone, without her next to him to hold his hand, guide him, comfort him, cry with him, laugh with him, grow older with him.

The mystic team then realized, the spirit they were after, was the spirit of this old man’s wife, who just couldn’t bear to leave the world, leaving the one person she had loved for her whole life. And as another customer, they managed to bring her into his dream, to bid him farewell. 

“This is our last day.” 5 simple words, yet carried so much emotions. 

This episode very much reflected my all-time favourite quote; the most romantic love story isn’t Romeo and Juliet, it’s watching your grandparents grow old together. Every old couple will eventually end their story the saddest way ever; one leaving another behind. But at times we’ll hear stories about how the one being left behind, will eventually follow the footsteps of the one who left very soon.

A spouse will actually be with you longer than your own parents did. After spending more than half of their life time with each other, being left behind will be the greatest punishment one can receive. 

I’ve always been a sucker of old couple being sweet with each other, showing love even at such an age. Growing old together is the best promise to fulfill. They took “till death to us apart” to its end. 

And this will be my favourite story and episode as of now.
