Published on | Source
The stars of KBS2 drama "The Slingshot" have expressed their determination to put everything they have into the drama until the very last episode.
Kim Kang-woo, Park Si-yeon and Park Yong-ha talked to reporters on May 21 at the shooting site of a scene where Chae Do-woo (Kim Kang-woo) and Seo Gyeong-a (Park Si-yeon) get married.
Park Yong-ha said that he's having a bit of a hard time maintaining a healthy condition because, with the series nearing the end, shooting often continues into the night. "There are fans who have liked and shown interest in our drama from the beginning. I cherish them most, so I will do my best until the very end not to disappoint them", he added.
Park Si-yeon explained how she feels about her character, who viewers have criticized for being ambiguous. "I myself sometimes wasn't sure about the character, and writer Song Ji-na and director Yoon Seung-sik told me that she would be clearly explained in the later parts of the series. I still don't feel comfortable but at least I can understand her now", she said. "I am just very happy to be part of this great work and hope it ends with a positive response".
Kim Kang-woo, who is impressing viewers with his portrayal of psychopath Chae Do-woo, said, "In playing a psychopath, I've found delivering lines more difficult than making certain facial expressions. He uses lots of specialized words and speaks in a peremptory tone, so I feel very tense when I have to shoot many scenes in a day".
He added, "[The drama] won't unfold in an expected way to boost ratings in the remaining episodes. We will keep trying our best not to disappoint viewers, so I ask for continuous interest in our drama".
Praised for well-written scripts and the passionate performance of all its actors, "The Slingshot" has so far aired 16 out of 20 episodes. The 17th episode will air on June 1 at 9:55 p.m.
