Shinhwa member and actor Kim Dong-wan, who is appearing in the new weekend drama ‘Please Take Care of the 5 Eagle Brothers!’, shared his thoughts on appearing in a drama for the first time in six years.

At the production conference for KBS 2TV‘s ‘Please Take Care of the 5 Eagle Brothers!’ held at the Ramada Seoul Sindorim Hotel in Guro-gu, Seoul on the 22nd, Kim Dong-wan said, “It’s been a long time since I‘ve appeared in a drama. Actually, no one called me, so I’m appearing now,” and made everyone laugh by saying, “Kim Dong-wan is selling out,” making people laugh. The last time he appeared in a drama was KBS 2TV‘s ‘I Don’t Want to Go to Work’ in 2019.

He then said about ‘Please Take Care of the Five Eagle Brothers!’, which is a story about a brewery that brews makgeolli, “Our drama‘s lighting director actually runs a small brewery and brews makgeolli. I love makgeolli distilled at a high alcohol content. I hope that Korean makgeolli can become a global brand through this drama.”

He also said about his role as a Zumba dance instructor in the drama, “Zumba dance is really intense and dynamic when you actually try it. When I first started learning it, I had to get treatment for a pelvic bone injury.”The brothers in the drama all have some issues, so please watch and see how we will change following our ‘eldest sister-in-law’ Uhm Ji-won.”

Meanwhile, ‘Please Take Care of the Five Eagle Brothers!’ is a story of a mature family formed by the five unique brothers of the long-established brewery Eagle Brewery and the eldest sister-in-law who suddenly becomes the head of the household after her husband’s sudden death just ten days after her wedding.
