1. Who is Yoo Yeon-seok?

He is a member of South Korea and a member of the band Mido and Parasol, which began in the drama "Hospital Playlist".

His father, who was born in Seoul but is a doctor of engineering, was assigned as a professor at Gyeongsang National University in Jinju, Gyeongsangnam-do, and moved to Jinju when he was six years old and remained there until his first year of high school. Nevertheless, in March 2001, when my brother went to Seoul to retake the exam, he moved to Seoul and transferred to Gyeonggi High School. He has lived in Seoul since then.

He is a certified barista. Jungwoo Ha, an actor, stated, "When Yoo Yeon-seok arrives on set, he pours coffee for him and hands it to him. He resembled a barista. He carried a variety of beans in a 007 bag and lowered them with ease. My hobby seemed to me to be analogous to my real life. It's extremely classy "In an interview, he stated.

He is said to be quite knowledgeable about cameras and photography. He enjoys cameras so much that he owns quite a few cameras and is known to be a collector of Laika items after obtaining the Laika M3 as a gift from his father while serving in the Air Force. When he was previously featured in "Strong Heart," he arranged a traditional polaroid photo shoot with his own talent, and he is claimed to always show images made with a polaroid camera.

I once published a series of photo essays with images taken straight in Cinema Week, a now-defunct movie weekly magazine. He once produced a photo essay book detailing his experiences helping in Africa. The earnings from the book's sale are believed to have gone entirely to Ethiopian youngsters. A photo show was also held at the Irum Gallery in Chungmu-ro.

2. Yoo Yeon-seok's Personality?

"Yoo Yeon-seok is a very delicate 'gentle guy,'" actor Moon Ga-young, who co-starred with him in, stated. "I've learned a lot from always studying the situation," he remarked in an interview.

"I thought it would be wonderful if Yoo Yeon-seok's soft side, gentleness, and the aspects that truly adore children came through as acting," said producer Shin Won-ho. I'd never played a character like Yoo Yeon-seok before, but I believed he'd look beautiful, and Yoo Yeon-seok responded, “I want to try it.”

In the drama, Ahn Jung-won is a warm and mature young man who is firm when he has to be and compassionate when he needs to be. I was happy that Yoo Yeon-seok addressed so many different aspects so beautifully. Furthermore, because all pediatric patients were young, there were many times when the scene was difficult to control, and it was extremely pretty to interact with the children cordially and bring out smoke. Even at the location where the five persons convened, he performed the odd role of the 99s' youngest."

Lee Chan-hyung, an actor, stated, "There is a good picture that appears to say softness at first glance. Nonetheless, I think Koo Dong-mae in "Mr. Sunshine" is fantastic. I couldn't believe you were standing next to me and was pleasantly surprised when we got to collaborate on the "Hospital Playlist." "I recall being unable to hear for a brief while because I was focused on my senior. "I guess I was watching while focusing on the want to learn," he explained.

Lee Jung-won, an actor, stated, "I competed with Yoo Yeon-seok in several sequences. There is a scenario in which all of the inhabitants' names are memorized, and they truly remembered all of our actors' names. He was especially pleased because my name was the same as his in the play. In truth, it may have passed by, but it was touching to be asked my name and function. I assumed this was the primary character's mentality. I also felt that I should treat new actors as nicely as my seniors if they do well in the future. He was so sweet.

"In fact, Yoo Yeon-seok nearly felt like a 'field coach,'" actor Kim Yong-ji, who was alongside Mr. Sunshine, stated. There were occasions when I couldn't make eye contact or couldn't find where the camera was. Whenever this occurred, he explained it in detail. It was quite beneficial because you demonstrated 100% responsiveness even at the moment that generated emotions. You're like Goo Dong-mae even in real life. "Rather, I wanted to shout that I was so sorry for not doing enough for him," he explained in an interview.

"He has a really wonderful personality," actor Yoon Joo-man observed of Yoo Yeon-seok. Others may believe that this friend achieved success all at once, yet he is an actor who began with a minor role and worked his way up. As a result, he recalls Jordan's time well and sympathizes with his pain. The lesser characters in the middle don't know each other very well. So there are moments when I feel as if no one is looking after me. I didn't play a major role, either, but as an actor who has been filming since the beginning, I believe I tried to look after the lesser actors with Yoo Yeon-seok. Also, Yoo Yeon-seok is a buddy who has far more experience as an actress than I do, so there is a lot to learn. I constantly kept an eye on him on the monitor when I was acting as a driving hawk. He performed admirably, as expected "He was pleased.

Jung Woo-sung, an actor, stated, "As an actor, it is critical to take responsibility. To fulfill your responsibility in the area, you must be the owner if you have a sense of responsibility. The enlargement of duty, rather than "simply my role like this," indicates that I must play this role properly in this movie and think about it in order to understand the entire situation. It takes time and effort to grasp emotionally, but Yoo Yeon-seok is an actress who excels at it. Watching how he approached the character and labored over it gave him authenticity. He was a close colleague and a pretty junior," he said in an interview.

3. Yoo Yeon-seok's Activities 

In 2003, he made his film debut in Park Chan-wook's "Old Boy," playing the child actor Lee Woo-jin, who was played by Yoo Ji-tae. He went on to appear in plays, movies, and dramas after being dismissed from the military. He rose to prominence as a new actor because of his strong performances in the independent films Re-encounter, 18, 19, and Horror Tales.

Later, he appeared in the film Born to Sing, and his supporting flicks "Architecture 101" and "A Werewolf Boy" was well-received, earning him some renown. In the film, he played a so-called Gangnam senior who is admired by Suzy, the people's first love. In the film A Werewolf Boy, he played Ji-tae, who bullies another national younger sister, Park Bo-young, and once again shows his villainy. When they saw the real Ji-tae, the audience was furious, and they had an interview in which they suffered greatly. In other words, he performed admirably.

<1819>, he was identified as a villain in the early 2010s since his popular works primarily featured villains. Of course, his acting talents earned positive feedback.

The drama "Reply 1994," which was a major hit in 2013, marks a watershed moment in his acting career. Chilbong, a handsome baseball player, performs the character in the play, displaying a new and friendly appearance in contrast to the existing icy villain image, winning many followers and vividly imprinting his name on the public. Since then, he has established himself as a main actor by co-starring in a hit drama with his co-workers Son Ho-joon and Baro.

Since then, the Hong sisters' romantic comedy-drama and Kang Eun-kyung's medical drama surgery, who has an angelic demeanor in tvN's sensible medical life, have been airing. "When I was in the United States, the director called and asked if I would do it with him," the actor explained. He claimed he'd do it because he was in "Reply 1994," which forced me to come out of hiding for ten years, and I met him without knowing who he was. "I opted to appear while waiting with the anticipation that it would be so much fun," he stated, expressing complete faith in producer Shin Won-ho and explaining why he chose to appear without a script.

He is constantly active in his job and delivers a powerful melodramatic performance in “The Intrest of Love.”

4. Interview related to ‘The Interest of Love’

Yoo Yeon-seok declared his willingness to depict realistic love feelings in "Understanding Love" during the production presentation. "If you liked pure love or unilateral love in the last piece, this time it is more realistic," he explained. “It will demonstrate the love that is in touch with reality rather than love that transcends time and space and overcomes adversity.”

Q. What kind of drama is 'The Interest of Love'?

Understanding Love is based on a novel. There are times when the tale is filled in and developed as it becomes more dramatic. It will be entertaining for readers who enjoyed the original work to compare and watch it.

Q. What is the most noticeable difference between this version and the original?

I read the first novel. The most significant distinction is that the novel's readers really conveyed the images and movies they could have envisioned through decision and attention. We attempted to express it through our own interpretation. There are many parallels between character relationships and the setting. I got a hint in the section where I can understand the character. There were several lines 

that stuck with me like unique words.

Q. How powerful is "The Interest of Love"?

I can choose visual attractiveness. The 'My Mister' shooting team is the drama shooting team. I was looking forward to it because I appreciated the art and its visual attractiveness. Those who appreciated the novel, I believe, can look forward to it. It's more than I imagined in the novel.

Q. What made you decide to participate in the drama?

I felt compelled to paint pure love. "Understanding Love" was novel in that it allowed me to discuss feelings that I can think about and feel at my age. The more you learn and do, the more hazy love becomes. Loving can be rewarding, but it can also be painful. Yet, it appears to be a force to withstand all of this.

Q. What variables contribute to the drama's realism?

The character's employment as a banker heightens the sense of reality. When I play a genuine job as a character, I try to go to the location and absorb the scene. I practiced counting money and handling instruments (at the bank), and I observed and referenced personnel dealing with customers at the bank window.

Q. How hard do you work to be a good actor?

I strived to be a good actor when I first started performing.

I was always hoping to hear about a new actor who was talented. I used to be greedy to be the finest actor because I was so well-liked. But now I want to be an actor who is indispensable to any project.
