Geum Sae-rok (30) fulfilled her first melodrama challenge by appearing in JTBC's Wednesday-Thursday drama "The Interest of Love." Many viewers supported Park Mi-kyung, who was more honest and engaged in love than anyone else. She has finished a more mature acting skill and aesthetically associated character in her ninth year since her debut to increase her immersion.

Park Mi-kyung, deputy manager of the PB team at KCU Bank's Yeongpo branch, was played by Geum Sae-rok. Park Mi-kyung is a bright, joyful, intelligent, strong woman who is honest with her sentiments without regard for others. Once a relationship is formed, it is a person's responsibility to cherish it and give it away without regard for waste.

"It's been a while since the broadcast ended, yet it seems to be lingering," Geum Sae-rok stated. I recall meeting and working with a wonderful director and team. "I believe it will remain a really valuable work for me," he remarked. It's also true that "The Interest Love" has had some rating issues due to its deep authentic melodrama. Geum Sae-rok, on the other hand, expressed her admiration for the work as if she were reading a hidden diary.

"Our play is like a secret diary," Geum Sae-rok said. All four characters have scars and imperfections they wish to conceal. Some people write lies in their diaries because they are humiliated. Understanding Love, I believe, contains everything. It may be frustrating at times, but it is a work that can console, cheer, and empathize with feelings. Likewise, if you express your sentiments after seeing the drama elsewhere, I'm sure the article would soothe someone," she continued, confident in the drama.

1. Who is Geum Sae-rok?

She is an actress from South Korea. She is currently regarded as a rising celebrity due to her stunning appearance and exceptional acting abilities.

She hosted the "Bucheon Car Center Alley" episode at a Jongwon Baek alley eatery and was the MC for her first fixed entertainment show. Geum Sae-refreshing rok's and energetic progress and keen analysis, often known as the Geumsae Briefing, were warmly received for her distinct sense of humour. However, it garnered less attention than Jo Bo-ah and Jeong In-sun since they entered when the program was almost completed, and the alley restaurant terminated roughly seven months after Geum Sae-rok joined, making her the final female MC of the alley restaurant.

Geum Sae-rok is another actress who works out regularly. "When I was younger, I didn't exercise at all when I was working," she explained. But I ran out of energy at some point. I wanted to act well at times, but I had to give up what I could accomplish since I caught a cold easily and was sick. So I started exercising every day at some point. What's interesting is that we don't catch a cold no matter how chilly we shoot all night. When I want to express myself more, I feel like I need physical power to do it, therefore I work out every day," she explained, pointing to the need for constant control.

"I was managing it, and before I started working, I wanted to convey confident and

 confident portions like Mi-kyung more outwardly, so I even monitored my nutrition," she added. "I lost roughly 7 kilograms." "I shot the styling segment while meticulously caring for each garment," she explained, revealing her severe self-management techniques.

2. What is her personality?

She enjoys taking photographs. In the interview, she stated that she likes photographs with stories and hopes to have an exhibition of the photographs she took later. She also stated in the interview that she is quite emotional. You are an artist with a strong tendency to be very sentimental and philosophical if you are moved by nature when capturing images and reading the expressions while looking at them.

Director Cho Young-min stated at the production presentation of The Interest of Love that he suggested it because he wanted to work with her immediately after meeting her. That was because I thought Geum Sae-cheery rok's personality and bright energy complemented Mi-kyung well, and coach Cho Young-min thought it was particularly intriguing because it was the first time such a case had been presented.

In an interview, she stated that she had a balanced personality. She stated that her appearance and demeanor are round, but she is also pouting. She is reported to have a really fun personality. She is described as lively and fun. As a result, during filming, actors of the same age frequently work well together. Geum Sae-nature rok's as a playful person is reflected in the "Youth of May" producing video. There are several good stories from the filmmaking crew, possibly due to their concern and friendly personality. 

Additionally, Geum Sae-rok, initially did not have an agency. She was animated as she boarded the train to go to the movie scene by herself. I altered my profile and went on an audition. She admitted that there were occasions when it was lucky to see one location if he put in ten auditions on how to keep working. "It was difficult, but I was determined to succeed."

"I think I've gotten this far because I've been holding out like that and doing it one by one," she explained. Looking back, it's incredible, and those times appear really affectionate. When I was younger, I imagined myself as an actor if I studied in acting in college. (laughs) There is no set route, so who tells me? After graduation, I rushed around on two feet with a desperate heart, and the relationship grew. I believe there are many people who are grateful. The phrase "I have to suffer" appears to have helped as well. "If you hold out, you'll end up coming even if you're slow to where you want to be," she added, expressing her admiration for her talent as an actress.

4. Interview Related to “The interest of Love”

Park Mi-kyung, as Geum Sae-rok pointed out, isn't deficient enough to be the only one. On her first day of work, she arrives dressed to the nines, parked in the position of branch manager in a foreign car. She, on the other hand, cares for her staff with an active personality and displays intimacy. Off-screen, Geum Sae-rok made an extra effort since she is a character that distinguishes out.

Mi-kyung ultimately failed to win Sang-heart, soo's which was her shortcoming. Sangsu's heart finally went to Sooyoung (Moon Ga-young), but she, too, was unable to fill the void. Yet, it was friendlier than any other filming location. Geum Sae-rok also felt, while watching the show, that Sang-su had no feelings for Mi-kyung.

It's frustrating, but I keep seeing it, and the people around me have been quite encouraging. She stated, "It felt good when people told me that 'The Interest of Love' reminds me of former loves, current loves, and loves I didn't select at the time. It appears to have evolved into a work akin to a perfume that evokes the aroma of the time. Those comments were lovely, in my opinion "She stated.


Q. I've heard "The Interest of Love" is a love story. A realistic love story told from the perspectives of four key individuals. What is the drama's high point?

- The four major characters all have various perspectives on love, and the enjoyment of watching will be multiplied depending on who they empathize with. Relationships, I believe, are a crucial theme in the drama. Dating has a practical side, and it also has a charm, which is similar to my narrative. Relationships are challenging and confusing, yet I find it soothing.

 

Q. How did you like the first novel of the same name?

- The drama is more realistic than the original. As a result, I enjoyed it. I could identify to the process of accepting each other's flaws and heartbreaks while facing love.

 

Q. In "The Interest of Love," you played Park Mi-kyung. I heard you're an affluent kid with a lot of confidence.

- Mi-kyung is an amazing person. After reading the script, I began to fall in love with the characters. Unfortunately, I can't go into detail because it hasn't yet been broadcast. (laughs)

 

Q. Do you have any interests in Mi-kyung?

- - It's like looking in a mirror. I have a tendency to give my heart to the person I believe to be my person. Because acting sometimes begins with who I am, I believe I maximized the similarities between myself and Mi-kyung when I initially researched this character. Is the resemblance that you are truthful? When I enjoy something, I say so, and when I'm upset, I say so.

Q. Do you approach friends, partners, coworkers, or strangers when you are curious?

Without a doubt. You should chat with him if you're curious. That's something I'm good at.

 

Q. Does it take courage to approach first?

- There is a widespread perception that you will not dislike someone who approaches you with a grin. I'm the type of person who says what needs to be said. When I have a disagreement with someone, I usually resolve it through communication. I believe I learned the honest side of Mi-kyung because I've recently become more interested in Mi-kyung.

 

Q. How did it perform?

- I consider performing to be the most fun aspect of my life. I was punished in an acting academy in high school because I liked acting even when I cried. It's alright to make a mistake, and I wanted to do better. I still have the same love and enthusiasm for acting.

 

Q: What about ten years later? I'm sure you've always wanted to be an actor.

- In fact, I imagined I'd become an actor if I went to university and majored in acting. That is not easy to learn. There is some truth to it. Working and acting, I believe, are teaching me a lot these days. When will I be able to learn to act? If your character is a doctor, you will have to study medicine, and the fact that you peek into different people's life is another motivator to keep this career.

 

Q. What do you have planned for this year?

Nothing has yet been decided. Also, I believe I should fill it full in order to meet good works. I believe I used a lot of energy and drained a lot of my emotions while working on the project, therefore I believe I need time to see and feel different things. When that happens, I usually spend time filling in the blanks with activities such as going to an art gallery, going on a trip, studying acting with my friends or watching a lot of movies.

 

Q. How do you plan to spend your 30s?

I'm hoping that it will be a time to fill some joy, happiness, and acting concerns one step at a time. I'd like to spend time with important relationships by meeting characters or reading works of many genres that I haven't read before. If you meet every component in this manner, you'll be in your forties.
