Love Scout (My Great Secretary) is Lee Joon Hyuks latest work. The film ended airing on the evening of February 14 with a viewership rating of 12% - the highest since its broadcast.
According to the film's development, the couple Kang Ji Yoon ( Han Ji Min) and Yoo Eun Ho (Lee Joon Hyuk) are happy together. The screenwriter's open ending for Ji Yoon and Eun Ho instead of a wedding delighted viewers, as they had to "guess together" about their future.
In a new conversation with the Korean media after the drama ended, Lee Joon Hyuk revealed that Yoo Eun Ho was his most unique role ever.
He said that he has played many bold roles (corrupt prosecutor, time-travel police...) so Love Scout is a new change.
I have played many unique and challenging roles, so my film career has many special characters. Therefore, even when I play an unusual role, I no longer feel unusual.
So when I play a more ordinary character, I feel like it is the most unique role in my film. And Love Scout is such a role normal but challenging for me.
The Korean actor added that along with the plot and direction of the director, the acting of his senior Han Ji Min helped the scenes on set become more vivid.
Han Ji Mins ability to fully immerse herself in the character and convey the lines realistically makes me believe in the story more.
This work is an unforgettable experience for me and the result I can achieve is thanks to the cooperation with a talented co-star.
Although he himself was not sure about his attractiveness. However, even when he failed, he continued to take on different roles. Ive built my career that way, so I think Ill continue to try new things in the future, he said.
After Love Scout, Lee Joon Hyuk has 2 new projects. In the drama The Art of Sarah co-starring with Shin Hye Sun, he plays Mu Gyeong - an inspector trying to stop Sarah Kims ambitions - a woman who wants to turn everything into a luxury brand even if it is a fake.
With Lotto 1st place winner goes to work too (Even if winning the lottery, he still goes to work), the actor plays Gong Eun Tae - a typical sales employee in normal offices but unexpectedly wins the lottery he dreams of.
Instead of giving up work, he continued to work thinking that the reward was a solid "mental insurance", helping him face life.
