Actor Ahn Jae-wook gave a flawless performance in ‘Please Take Care of the Five Eagle Brothers!’.
In the KBS 2TV weekend drama ‘Please Take Care of the Five Eagle Brothers!’ (directed by Choi Sang-yeol / written by Koo Hyun-sook), Ahn Jae-wook perfectly transformed into the role of Han Dong-seok, the chairman of LX Hotel and a born-to-be diamond spoon. He expresses Han Dong-seok‘s cool charisma with a stern expression and tone of speech, while delicately portraying his deep, pure love for his deceased wife, greatly increasing the immersion in the drama.
Ahn Jae-wook stole the spotlight from the beginning of the drama by properly bringing the character’s characteristics to life. At a blind date arranged by his daughter Han Bom (played by Kim Seung-yoon), Dong-seok crosses his arms and makes a blank expression when someone asks him to explain a painting to him, saying, “Please don‘t explain. I judge only by what I see with my own eyes.“ In that scene, Ahn Jae-wook made Han Dong-seok’s cold personality tasteful and not unpleasant, which increased the immersion of the work.
On the other hand, in the scene where Dong-seok visits the charnel house where his wife is laid to rest for 15 years and greets her affectionately, he showed off his unexpected charm as a pure and single-minded lover for his wife. Here, Ahn Jae-wook‘s serious voice and appealing acting really showed their worth, leaving a strong impression.
Ahn Jae-wook also brought another kind of fun with his rivalry with Uhm Ji-won. Dong-seok got into a heated argument with Ma Kwang-sook (played by Uhm Ji-won), who came to ask for money for her wedding dress repairs, saying, ”I’ve never done that before.“ When Kwang-sook handed him a USB containing CCTV footage, Dong-seok covered up the situation by saying that he would check and contact her. Furthermore, Dong-seok felt sorry for swearing at Kwang-sook and then finding out that her husband passed away shortly after they got married. Dong-seok‘s sincere apology has made viewers anticipate how their relationship will change in the future.
In this way, Ahn Jae-wook is making a splendid return to KBS’s weekend drama after 10 years and showing off his presence as a top actor. Ahn Jae-wook, who is leading the revival of weekend dramas once again through ‘Please Take Care of the Five Eagle Brothers!’, is expressing Han Dong-seok‘s various charms with his simple yet powerful acting, raising expectations for his future activities.
KBS 2TV’s weekend drama ‘Please Take Care of the Five Eagle Brothers!’, which allows viewers to get a glimpse of Ahn Jae-wook‘s veteran side, airs every Saturday and Sunday at 8 PM.
