‘Hyperknife’ Park Eun-bin talked about her feelings about working with senior actor Seol Kyung-gu and the stories they shared while filming.

On the afternoon of the 15th, at a cafe in Jongno-gu, Seoul, an interview was held to mark the end of the Disney+ original series ‘Hyperknife’, and Donga.com met with the cast to talk about the work.

On this day, Park Eun-bin said about the ending of ‘Hyperknife’, “Of course, I understand the opinion that it is an open ending because it was not clearly shown.Personally, I thought it was a very well-closed happy ending.I thought it was an ending that depicted the victory of these two people.”

Park Eun-bin also said, “I thought I should do this piece when I first saw the opening sequence.The writer had specified Handel’s ‘Make Me Cry’.I heard that this story would ultimately be about Deok-hee making Se-ok cry.I thought that this music would be able to express the drama and provide an identity.Although this music wasn’t used, I thought of the basic outline that way.The ending of ‘Hyperknife’ also had Deok-hee making Se-ok cry deeply.I wanted to make Deok-hee’s wish come true through that scene.I think that Se-ok learned the lesson of her teacher who teaches failure and achieved the victory of being able to fail.I thought it was an ending where both of them achieved what they wanted.”



Also, in this ‘Hyperknife’, Park Eun-bin had many scenes where she confronted her senior Seol Kyung-gu, and even had to perform extreme actions such as hitting Seol Kyung-gu.Regarding this, Park Eun-bin said, “Thankfully, my senior said that it was okay if I didn’t get hit directly, but if I did, we couldn’t film.I had good timing.My senior and I had good chemistry.My senior never hit me.I could have not hit him either, but the director said that I had to hit him directly.So I really didn’t want to hit him, but it broke my heart that he made me do it.”

In an interview, Seol Kyung-gu mentioned that he had many conversations with Park Eun-bin while filming ‘Hyperknife’.Park Eun-bin explained, “The reason I talked to my senior so much and called him for the first time was because of the special nature of the work.This work touches on complex emotions.It would have been good if we could express them directly, but he said we should resolve that regret in another work.We talk about each other’s stories, but since the time we meet in person is limited, I briefed him on the parts I filmed.I also had to check if I was the only one who had those feelings and if he was thinking about them.I had no choice but to contact him a lot to check those parts.In the process, I relieved my boredom by talking about things I was curious about as a person, rather than as an actor.”



He then emphasized, “I think it would have been difficult to finish this piece without my senior’s presence.I am grateful.”

When asked about Seol Kyung-gu’s acting, Park Eun-bin said cautiously, “We never talked about acting.In the first place, he is not the type of person who evaluates whether his acting was good or not.I wanted to ask him about me, but I felt he wouldn’t answer.I also didn’t want to make an evaluation easily.We left that out and talked about other things.”

He added, “I don’t think I can dare to talk about my senior’s acting theory.We each have our own secrets.I think the temperature and mindset we had on set were very similar.When I arrive at the set, I turn on all my radars.I observe people until I become immersed.But my senior also seems to always be looking out for his surroundings.”

Park Eun-bin drew attention by revealing the contents of a text message exchange with Seol Kyung-gu after the end of ‘Hyperknife’, saying, “I watched all eight episodes in one day at the current affairs room.I watched parts 1 and 2 and 5 and 6 at home.Since I’m currently filming, I wasn’t able to watch the rest.In the meantime, my senior told me that he was glad and happy that it ended well.Although he was disappointed, he said that he would pour everything out into his next project.He said that he hoped to see me again.”

Meanwhile, ‘Hyperknife’ is a drama that depicts the fierce confrontation between Jeong Se-ok(played by Park Eun-bin), a former promising genius doctor, and her teacher Choi Deok-hee(played by Sol Kyung-gu), who led her to the abyss.

Park Eun-bin gave an overwhelming performance as the shadow doctor Jeong Se-ok, who was driven into the abyss by her respected teacher.
