[08.05.30][News]'Strongest Chil Woo' involves not only acting



The filming of KBS 2's new TV drama 'Strongest Chil Woo' has continuous and arduous fighting scenes of the assassins, and who are the suffering cast?

Strongest Chil woo revolves around the main lead, Mun Jung Hyuk who is attempting his first try in this historic period drama. A couple of young actors are also part of the cast and there are several obstacles they have to overcome.

On top of their acting and lines which are different from modern period shows, they have to learn horse-riding. The actor who plays the assassin zaza, Lee Eon says, "You can practise martial arts with the other cast, but when it comes to horse-riding, you need time alone to learn and adapt. You have to be able to handle the different circumstances that the horses put you under, it doesn't seem easy."

Because of this, during breaks, you can easily find the cast still on horses, trying to be more comfortable with the horses and they are putting in a lot of effort.

If this is the case, does it mean actresses have an easier time? Goo Hye Soon says, "Compared to those horse-riding scenes, I do have harder scenes." "What is worse is to run together with the horses." These comments triggered laughter from the surrounding people.

A recent scene required Goo Hye Soon to avoid the people who are on the horses, and those horses galloped forward mercilessly.

A related party from production company olive9 expresses, "Besides Goo Hye Sun being chased by people on horses, Mun Jung Hyuk also has scenes whereby he has to chase horses using horse whips where the running horses will drag him along and this which requires much physical strength to continue the shooting. Due to the hot weather, we are trying hard to make sure our cast are not physically drained and are in good health."
