Saturday, March 27, 2021
tvN's ongoing mystery-thriller Korean drama 'Mouse' has everyone on the edge of their seats! The drama revolves around Jeong Ba-reum (starring Lee Seung-gi), a steadfast police officer whose life changes when he encounters a psychopathic serial killer. This drives him and his partner Go Moo-chi (starring Lee Hee-joon) to unearth the truth behind psychopathic behaviours.
In an interview, the main cast Lee Seung Gi, Lee Hee-Joon, Park Joo-Hyun and Kyung Soo-jin talked about their characters in the drama.
Talking about why they take up the role, Lee Seung Gi shared that the drama script is very well written and so he decided to do it. "It is meticulously written and very sophisticated along with the different possibilities that are plausible to the end, this made me feel that the script was very well written and so, I decided to do this drama." Lee Hee-jun agreed and added Lee Seung Gi the reason why he take up the role. "I was also very impressed by the meticulous script. Because Lee Seung-gi said that he would do it, that’s why I decided to do this drama."
Park Joo-Hyun continued, "My senior actors are actors that I have really wanted to work with for a long time, and the script was very good. I finished reading the script in a single sitting. I thought to myself, I would be thankful to be able to participate in the filming of such a great production."
Kyung Soo-Jin added, "As my fellow actors mentioned earlier, the well-written script was a factor. I had also worked with Director Choi Jun-bae in a different production, "Come and Hug Me". That was also a very detailed production. Therefore, I trusted that the well-written script would be very well executed and decided to do this drama."
When being asked about the atmosphere when filming on set, Lee Hee Jun shared that, "We became close and it was very enjoyable, but because we started filming in the very cold winter, we were even rained on in the bitter cold. There were those kinds of days."
Lee Seung Gi then added, "Because the drama starts in fall, we were dressed in fall fashion. Winter has now passed and we have missed the period where we can dress warmly on set, because spring has come and we have to work hard while wearing thinner clothes. Among us, it was very fun. This winter was especially cold, last year was quite warm, because this winter was especially cold and we shot many scenes in the bitter cold, I feel we encouraged each other more during filming."
Final message to overseas fans...
Park Joo Hyun: I think that it’s a meeting between a very well-written script and a very meticulous director, and that meeting has produced this final product. I think it will be as exciting as we have mentioned, so I hope that you will watch it!
Kyung Soo-Jin: Don’t miss the first episode of this detailed and cool drama!
