Good morning! Here's the latest article about our dear Taecyeon's newest drama Assembly.

www.getitk.com/interview-taecyeon-i-will...in-assembly/?lang=en

[INTERVIEW] Taecyeon, “I Will Show a True Side of Me in ‘Assembly’”

The press conference for KBS 2TV’s upcoming television series “Assembly” was held on July 9 at Grand Ambassador Hotel in Jangchoong-dong, Jung-gu of Seoul. Cast members Jung Jae-young, Song Yoon-ah, Ok Taecyeon, Jang Hyun-sung, Kim Seo-hyung, Park Young-gyu and the production team attended the event.

Kim Kyu-hwan is a hardworking student who tries to become a police officer. While he spends day time studying at a library, he works as a part time proxy driver at night to make a living. Although he struggles for success, however, he faces many hurdles in a world where people are graded by their qualifications and backgrounds. As Kim becomes cynic about politics and politicians as wells the society, he will be entangled with other characters such as Jin Sang-pil(played by Jung Jae-young) and Choi In-kyung(played by Song Yoon-ah).

We met Taecyeon, who will take over the role of Kim Kyu-hwan, a student who is preparing take the civil servant exam.

Q You will work with many seasoned actors in your drama. Don’t you feel any pressure about it?

Oh, yes I do. I have a lot of burden on my shoulders. In addition, my character happens to be the only person who is in his 20s, haha. Well, I am really trying not to be troublesome. Thankfully, everyone’s so supportive. My director and I are having considerable discussion on various issues. I think I should just work hard, and show them with good results.

Q Does appearing on entertainment programs help you with acting?

I am currently appearing on ‘Three Meals A Day.” It does help me in some point; by being part of the program, I learned how to be myself and show a natural, true and intimate side of me. That’s why I myself am also looking forward to this drama, because I have to show a sincere and honest side of Kim Kyu-hwan.

2-1

Q Does your character speak for progressivism in the drama?

Well, my character may seem to be speaking for progress because of his relatively young age, but, no. He is neither a progressive nor a conservative. I think people are interested in this because ‘Assembly’ is a political drama. However, let me just say that he will get involved in some incidents once he steps into the National Assembly

Q You have played some pitiful characters in the past. Coincidently, Kim Kyu-hwan also has a dark side in his family history.

Actually, this is my fifth television series, and I had no parents in ‘Cinderella’s Sister’, and abandoned by my own biological father in ‘Dream High’. Wait, there’s more. I had no father in ‘Who Are You’, and had two mothers in ‘Wonderful Days’. Haha. Unfortunately, Kyu-hwan does not have a happy history regarding his family affairs. He thinks his father betrayed and abandoned him. Playing these unfortunate characters, I got to think how grateful it is to have parents. Oh, just for your information, my family’s all great!

Q Are you experiencing any difficulty?

I had a scene where Kyu-hwan had a private talk with his father. Although he has so much affection for his father, he tells him that he would never see him for the rest of his life. That scene was especially hard to act; it was not just speaking my lines. There were a number of complex feelings in them. I am really looking forward to checking that scene later on TV.

Q You made your drama debut through ‘Wonderful Days.’ What do you think of your acting skill?

What’s obvious is that the more I act, the more it gets difficult. I was not a professional actor, and still I’m not, so it would be not easy for me to give a definition of acting and an actor. However, what I can define is that I will keep on acting. It is another leg that I have selected-a hard leg.

KBS 2TV’s Wednesday-Thursday television series ‘Assembly’ will air on Wednesday, July 15 at 22:00 (KST) for the first time. Stay tuned!

Thanks sis Marthcec15 for the interview transcript. With a good and patient director Taecyeon can develop his acting skills. PSH started acting earlier in her career and she can improve some more if she gets a tenacious director and a good script. I'm still waiting for her to get in a drama where her acting talent will be exhibited credibly enough to win her an Excellence in Acting award hands down. Same wish for Taecyeon. Everyone is excitedly waiting for this Wednesday's opening episode. We are depending on you sisters in Seoul to update us after Wednesday on how our Oksunbong farmer did in his latest drama.

If Taecyeon & PSH were to be in a drama or movie I think it shouldn't be where they play romantic partners. It'll spoil whatever good feelings and friendship there is between them. And it might unnecessarily make them feel awkward toward each other. I think this is what happened to her and LMH and JYH since after their dramas there had been nothing between them. At least from the soompi news etc. Just my thoughts.

You're probably correct sis lyanatasha. Tho I haven't seen any video with PSH speaking in English (Taecyeon has done interviews where he spoke good English with a twang (American accent)... When she was shooting Heirs in LA there were video clips of Lee Min-ho rehearsing his English lines. There were no similar clips for Shin-hye. Am just guessing... Either she came on set already prepared with her lines or she didn't have to memorize because she knew a bit how to speak in English. :)

I was almost expecting Taecyeon to mention PSH's name again. Good he didn't or we'll all become suspicious again. I wonder if he already has PSH's number ... As SALT already declared PSH to be virtually "incommunicado" all of July (since accdg to them PSH will be backpacking in Europe) and even after (since accdg to them also PSH will go back to finish her degree and "pursue other interests" like flower arranging). Is this putting her on a news blackout? What about 3MAD and our hope for her to return there to check out what she planted? I hope they'll continue their friendship, at least, even if she is overseas, and returning to finish school. :)
