The Haunted Palace tells the story of Yeo Ri (Bona) - a magician who denies her fate, and Yoon gap (Yook Sung Jae) - her first love - who is possessed by a spirit.
The film has currently aired 4 episodes with high viewership ratings, reaching 9.2%; 8.3%; 9.3% and 9.2%, respectively. The reason the film received good opening results is thanks to its thrilling, attractive plot and fast-paced film. The performances of Bona and Yook Sung Jae showed their harmony. In particular, although he has to play 2 roles, Yook Sung Jae is versatile.
Sharing with the media, Yook Sung Jae said that the reason he accepted to act in the film "Ghost Palace" was because he was a fan of the fantasy film genre. With this project, he is attracted by the story of the appearance of revengeful souls.
I was attracted to playing two roles - Yoon gap, who is intelligent and upright, and Cheol Yi, the devil who has lived a hateful heart for more than 1,000 years. In particular, I want to portray the image of Cheol Yi - the devil experiencing emotions and situations in the human world for the first time.
According to the actor, he and Bona have been friends for 16 years, so when filming together, they feel a little worried.
To be honest, at first, I was worried about whether I could fully immerse myself in the characters emotions when acting with this friend in front of me. But after the first scene, I felt very comfortable. It's great to be able to freely ask things like, 'Have you done well recently?'.
Meanwhile, Yook Sung Jae continued: That was also the most comfortable thing for me. I think that comfort could even create acting interaction between us.
The film "Ghost Palace" is 16 episodes long, and will air episode 5 on the evening of May 2.
