Hello to all Jo Hyun Jae fans,This is an English translation of Jo Hyun Jae's interview with "Korean TV Drama Magazine"(October 2008 Issue).

Title: The aroma of a man emerges in his 30s—I finally feel like an adult!Interviewed just before he joined the army.—

Q:In Three Daddies with One Mommy you played a stingy fund manager. As you developed that character did it reflect your actual personality at all?

A:When I did Three Daddies with One Mommy, at first I didn’t notice it, but as I was getting into the character, there were some slight changes in my own life as well. It isn’t my usual tone, but before I knew it, I started sounding cheap like my character. And I’m usually the laid-back type, but I started talking fast. . . .

Q:In that show you played the role of an unusual papa. What are your own views on marriage?

A:I think they’re the same as most people: meet someone you love, build a happy home, and livehappily together. I dream of having a normal family.

Q:Once you are married, have you ever imagined whether you would want a daughter or a son?And what kind of father would you like to become?

A:I think it would be nice to have one son and one daughter. I’ve thought that, if I have a son, I’d liketo be the kind of dad where we could speak openly about anything.

Q:What points do you look for when you’re choosing a project?

A:At the moment, there is no specific point. I have to grow more. But I do want to perform in works that are realistic. I’d like to do more traditional love stories and dramas. The reason I did a comedy like Three Daddies with One Mommy was that I believe that I need to play a wider variety of roles in order to grow as an actor. I want to play even more different types of roles in the future and take on projects with unusual scenarios.

Q:Why do you think that you are cast in period pieces so often, such as Daemang (Great Wish[2002, SBS]) and Seo Dong Yo?

A:Perhaps it is because I seem calmer than other people my age. I don’t know about now, but  I used to be mistaken a lot for being much older than I was. It’s not so much my exterior looks as what’s on the inside. . . .

Q:Looking back on your life as an actor to date, what color actor do you think you are?

A:Color? . . . What can I say to that? I don’t want to decide on one color. Rather than saying what kind of actor I am, I’d like to be confused with my characters, to become the character I’m playing.I try hard to achieve that.

Q:You are turning 30. What are your plans for the future?

A:I feel like I’m finally growing up (laughs). I think that when a male actor is around 30 years old, he finally starts to get the aroma of being a man. I have a long path ahead of me and I need to workeven harder. Right now, my head is full just thinking about work.


To be continued...(*^_^*)
