Heo Jun-ho, “Park Hyung-sik has changed as a person” Looking back on past relationship (Treasure Island)

Actor Heo Jun-ho looked back on his past relationship with Park Hyung-sik.

Heo Jun-ho said at the production conference for SBS‘s new Friday-Saturday drama ‘Treasure Island’, held at the SBS building in Mok-dong, Yangcheon-gu, Seoul on the afternoon of the 21st, “After receiving the script, I first thought, ‘Why did he say he was going to do it?’‘How am I going to digest it?’. On the day of the script practice, I told my colleagues, ‘Don’t misunderstand even if I don‘t talk in order to focus.’. But everything fell apart when I went out on set. I was so tired that I talked it out,” he confessed.

He confessed, “Even after I acted, I got goosebumps and wondered if I could do it myself. In order to hide that, I became a chatterbox, harassing Park Hyung-sik and Lee Hae-young and harassing the director. There was no way to resolve it, and I wrestled with the script until the last day,” he confessed.

How was it working with Park Hyung-sik, who portrayed the tense conflict structure in the drama? Heo Jun-ho said that he met Park Hyung-sik when he was a member of the group Empire Children as a radio host and guest in LA. He said, “I thought he would have a hard time if he came when it was cold. At that time, Im Si-wan was there, and the person I remember from that time was Park Hyung-sik. When I saw Park Hyung-sik, who appeared as a man this time, he had changed so much that I had NGs for my lines on the first day. He had become stronger. I was so happy to meet him as a man and not as a child. I tried really hard not to lose to Park Hyung-sik.”

Park Hyung-sik said, “When I saw Heo Jun-ho’s face in the scene where I met him, I got goosebumps all the way to the top of my head, like a cat getting its hair on its head. I could feel his power once again. I also thought that someday when I grow up, I want to become someone with an aura like my senior and who is also good at acting,” he said, expressing his respect.

‘Treasure Island’ is a life-long revenge match where Seo Dong-joo (Park Hyung-sik), who hacked 2 trillion won in political slush funds, fights with everything on the line to bring down the absolute evil that killed him and its world. It will be broadcast for the first time on the 21st as a follow-up to ‘My Perfect Secretary’, and meets viewers every Friday at 10 PM and Saturday at 9:50 PM.
