Yoo Ah In shares his answer with as an actor.

After 6 months of filming the 50 episode SBS drama Six Flying Dragons, main lead actor Yoo Ah In who plays the role Lee Bang Won is feeling the 'punch' when he was interviewed at the D. Hannam Museum on 23rd March.

The 50 episode periodic drama ended on 22nd March and the actor mentioned yesterday he felt it was all cool and great. But then today he starts to feel differently since it was non stop filming for months. He first thought it was a struggle that is never ending but now it feels empty since the drama has finally ended. 

Six Flying Dragons has captured the stories of six people with same aim of building a new country against all enemies. However with serious considerations finally Lee Bang Won's high ambition rose him to the throne as the 3rd Joseon King Taejong. With so many lives been sacrificed and blood stains on this young man, he still looked dashing as ever.


Yoo Ah In who plays Lee Bang Won's character has interpreted differently from the original focus of the drama. Basically he interpreted as reaching out for compassion and
understanding from the viewers. Whenever he is at crossroads to make numerous choices, that is final decision is in his mind. This allowed viewers to look differently at his role. With that he is satisfied for what he has played for. Initially we would think Lee Bang Won is a ruthless and mean ruler but the role was portrayed so well that viewers feel for his pain and contributions he has done for the country. As the illustration of the story goes, history was also there whereby Yoo has drew the aging process of Lee Bang Won growing to a matured figure. He was careful to play the crafty minded Bang Won to balance it out. It is one of the main priorities to show the value for the Korean people. At one stage Lee Bang Won was ironic and selfless. The reasons of politics as mentioned was to share its power with others. To give and get from others. 

The actor faces difficulties in waking up in the morning to film the drama. It was no joke. The hardest time in the wee early morning hours. Work is work but playing the expression in some cases are sometimes not systematic and rational. And worst part is playing the angry role and it doesn't end there. Yoo has changed his attitude and posture as he felt it's necessary to get good understanding and for those who support/love his acting skills. It is one of his main responsibility that he wants to do in this world. 

Over the last year, Yoo Ah In has won awards for his movie roles such as Veteran and Sado-The Throne. Following the SBS drama Six Flying Dragons, the actor has also one of the prestigious awards.. He knows expectations are high and there is pressure on him. He also mentioned lately the trend has changed with his close buddy actor Song Joong Ki being on screen for drama Descendants of the Sun, he laughed stating they are like brothers but he is envy with its ratings. Though Six Flying Dragons was a long drama its ratings were best peak at 18% but Descendants of the Sun instantly rated at 30%.  Awww...

A while ago when he was at an award ceremony in Hong Kong, 80% questions were thrown out were mostly related to Descendants of the Sun drama. Still he is happy for what he has achieved and after all the praises he has received, he felt it was like a dream.
It was a great accomplishment for him after all he has done so much work. While acting as Lee Bang Won doing his great 'cause', he mentioned the great cause was for the people.

He wants to set a good example and be a good influence to others. People in the age of 20s, are the largest population with highest anger in them. Yoo Ah In has also come a long way to earn this recognition as an actor and he has never forgotten about that.
