Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, July 28) — Korean Drama star Kim Seon-ho said his role as an assassin in his debut film “The Childe” was one of his most challenging portrayals in his career yet.
Speaking to CNN Philippines’ The Final Word, Seon-ho said he wanted to play different characters in different movies as an actor and playing as the \”Nobleman\” in this particular movie was difficult for him.
\”It was challenging, of course, and the most difficult for me was a scene where I jumped off a bridge,\” the KDrama star said.
\”I’m scared of heights. That was very difficult,\” the actor admitted.
The film features the \”Nobleman,\” Seon-ho’s character, a Filipino-Korean amateur boxer who travels to the Philippines in the hopes of tracking down his father.
The action-thriller film is in a different genre for Seon-ho’s hit light romance TV series which include \”Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha\” and \”Start Up.\”
While thankful for playing a different character, Seon-ho says his dream role is to play a \”normal ordinary person\” who experiences relatable situations for the audience.
