Actor Ahn Jae-wook shared his thoughts on appearing in a KBS weekend drama for the first time in 9 years.

On the 22nd, a production conference was held to commemorate the first broadcast of KBS2‘s new weekend drama ‘Please Take Care of the Five Eagle Brothers!’. Director Choi Sang-yeol and actors Uhm Ji-won, Ahn Jae-wook, Choi Dae-chul, Kim Dong-wan, Yoon Park, Lee Seok-ki, Park Hyo-joo, and Yoo In-young attended the event.

Ahn Jae-wook said, “I’m appearing in a KBS drama for the first time in 9 years. ‘Five Children’ was my last work, and I‘m grateful to have been offered the role. I felt a small sense of responsibility to lead the team both inside and outside the drama through the character of Han Dong-seok.” He expressed his confidence by saying, “The first impression of the script was strong. It’s like ‘Five Brothers’. I thought the plot and relationships would be complicated, but the plot development is fast enough to make me forget my worries, and each character‘s story flows smoothly. I think I’ll be able to gift viewers with an interesting weekend drama after a long time.”

She then expressed her gratitude by saying, “I felt ‘she’s already become Kwang-sook‘ from the very first scene. Not only the role, but Uhm Ji-won is also bright and energetic.”
