Interview: SF9’s Rowoon On How He Handles Love & His Favourite Scene In “She Would Never Know”

 

Kim Seok-woo, or better known as Rowoon (로운), is best known as the lead vocalist for dance boy group SF9 (Sensational Feeling 9, 에스에프나인). Aside from balancing his music career, the 25-year-old K-pop star has been establishing himself as a serious male lead in the acting world.

 

His latest project sees him playing the handsome Chae Hyung Seung in “She Would Never Know” (선배, 그 립스틱 바르지 마요). In this interview, the South Korean star delves into the complications of love and relationships. Rowoon also shares his new experiences when filming the romantic series.

 

1. It is your second time playing a lead role in a drama. Is it more difficult playing an office worker compared to your previous role as a student? How did you prepare for this role? 

 

At first, I was curious about the meaning of ‘growing up’, so I read a lot on philosophy and psychology, and consulted many people as well. Finally, I realized that people’s perspectives might be different even though we live in the same world. (Additionally), I practiced phonation and pronunciation a lot to express my lines more accurately. I also read the script with a creative and innovative spirit.

 

2. You described your character Chae Hyun-seung as someone who is a capable worker and doesn’t seem to have any flaws, except when it comes to expressing his true feelings. He was content to keep his love for Song-ah a secret until he found out her boyfriend may be two-timing her. Is Hyun-seung’s personality and way of dealing with love similar to yours? What parts of Hyun-seung do you wish you could be more like? And what do you find attractive and charming about your role? 

 

Actually, I don’t know how the real me will handle love. I don’t really know what kind of person I am as well. I just accept Hyun-seung’s love as it is. The title is unique and has a sexy air. The character of Chae Hyun-seung is somewhat of a fantasy character so when I first heard the title I thought it was sexy.

 

3. What’s your impression of Won Jin-ah and what do you feel about being her colleague? How would you rate the collaboration between you two?

 

When I was reading the script, I had a lot of different ideas. When I expressed them during filming, I found that unnie Jin-ah is a very open and flexible actress. I believe that is what they call ‘the best colleague’.

As for Jin-ah, she’s very charismatic. During the filming, I asked a lot of questions because I had never worked in an office before. Before we start shooting, we talk and eat together. She would think of ways to express things better with me. She’s a good senior. 

 

 

4. In your first collaboration with Won Jin-ah, what scene was your favourite?

 

My favourite one was the scene where we chatted in the barbecue restaurant. (This was in episode 3)

 

5. Rather than romantic comedy, it seems that this drama shows a more mature romance. What makes this love story special compared to others?

 

There’s no difference. If (I) have to say something, it may be different to those who are falling in love.

 

6. Were there any unforgettable moments during the shooting? What’s the most interesting thing/moment in the drama that the audience can look forward to?

 

To be honest, each and every moment was unforgettable. All scenes were special. I hope all of them can stay in my memory.

 

 

7. This is a series set in a cosmetics company. As a man, what are your beauty secrets and what are things you find really important to look and feel good?

 

Love yourself. People (are able to) think and imagine, (creating) endless possibilities. Therefore, the most important thing is to love yourself. Won Jin Ah takes on the role of Yoon Song Ah, who works at a cosmetics company as a professional brand marketer. She dreams of having her own cosmetics brand one day. 

 

8. What’s your plan for 2021? And do you have a message for your fans?

 

The most important thing is to do my best in everyday life. I’ve always been grateful to all my fans. You are the reason that I exist. I will work hard with my belief.

I think Rowoon's schedule today is appearing in Mnet's Kingdom: Legendary War but because I am so bad with KPOP, don't ask me what this is about LOLLL. I'm sure it's singing/dancing related so I'll just await for clips of SF9 performances.

@mademoiselle I am always very amused by this thing called non-alcoholic beer. I wonder how it taste like. Won't it just be like fizzy drinks?

Wahh people are already shipping them as YeonMo couple

 

[mademoiselle]

@abs-oluteM No idea! Would it be easier for you to get them where you are? I don't ever see this being sold here because the people here loves alcohols.

 

LOL there's a conflict of interest here coz Eun Bin is still Song Ah for me at the moment and Rowoon is... too loved to want him to be associated with anyone yet

2021.04.06 SF9’s Rowoon And Kim Hee Sun In Talks To Star As Leads Of Webtoon-Based Fantasy Drama

 

SF9’s Rowoon may be acting alongside Kim Hee Sun in the upcoming webtoon-based drama “Tomorrow” (literal title)!

 

On April 6, Sports Chosun reported that Rowoon had been cast as the main character Choi Joon Woong in ‘Tomorrow.’

 

A source from FNC Entertainment then stated to Sports Seoul, “‘Tomorrow’ is one of the dramas Rowoon has received an offer for. He is currently concentrating on filming ‘Yeonmo‘ (romanized title).”

 

After beng jobless for three years, Choi Joon Woong decides to take his own life and goes to a bridge to jump off of it. However, he finds someone else there who is also about to jump off the bridge and gets into a fight trying to save them. In the fight, the two of them accidentally fall off the bridge. A crisis management team run by grim reapers belatedly arrives at the scene, and Choi Joon Woong ends up falling into a three-year coma with his soul having escaped his body due to an error caused by the grim reapers. Now a soul who is half alive and half dead, he unexpectedly gets a job at the crisis management team at the most prominent company of grim reapers in the underworld. His job at the team involves taking special care of people with high risk of suicide and helping them want to continue living.

Have you ever tried any of these instant toppoki before? I think I should one of these days. I really love toppoki long before I was addicted to Korean dramas. There is this bazaar near a place I used to work in that used to have all these Korean ladies selling their homemade Korean food and it was so good. One of the stalls always sell this grilled toppoki. So yums. Too bad I don't go much to that area anymore.

[mademoiselle]

@abs-oluteM I didn't dare because they all look super spicy. Need someone with me then I can try and not waste food.
