Pachinko star Lee Minho explains how his character in the show compares to the leading man roles that made him one of the most beloved celebrities in Asia
As viewers learn, living through and bearing witness to these traumas transformed Hansu from a humble tutor devoted to his single father to the poised, cold businessman who seduces Sunja a decade later. Lee, 34, spoke withabout the significance of the episode in forming his character and how Hansu compares to the leading man roles that made him one of the most beloved celebrities throughout Asia.This episode, which explores Hansu’s past, is completely original to the show.
We could not film the scenes in order since we were filming in two different countries, Canada and Korea. So we took turns filming younger Hansu and older Hansu. It was hard to portray Hansu of different ages, but he had extremely different personalities in each era, so it helped me to build a solid foundation for his character.
What kind of research did you do for this role, especially about the 1923 Yokohama earthquake and the lives of Koreans living there at the time? I did my own research based on the script and the novel. I watched many clips that recreated the historical backgrounds of that time, documentaries regarding earthquakes and read many articles about Koreans who lived in that era.
