Actor Jang Dong Gun confessed that he was secretly very worried over filming his recent topless scene.
At a press conference that took place on Thursday at the SBS production center, the actor had a candid moment about his feelings over the now-famous revealing scene.
In the scene of 'A Gentleman's Dignity' that aired on the 10th, Jang Dong Gun freely exposes his upper body while taking off his clothes for a shower. Seo Lee Soo, who runs into the bathroom to avoid Lee Jung Rok (played by Lee Jong Hyuk), runs directly into the exposed Kim Do Jin (played by Jang Dong Gun).
Saying that he was "uncomfortable" at the time of the filming, Jang Dong Gun confessed that "I wasn't in the best shape at the time of the filming, so I wasn't prepared to confidently show myself", and drew laughs when he said, "Fortunately, I think it turned out better than what I thought it was going to be."
Additionally, the actor expressed his reason for choosing 'A Gentleman's Dignity', saying that he wanted a "light and fun role" instead of his usual somber, heavy roles. Although it took some time to adjust to, according to the actor, he is now having fun acting in the drama.
Jang Dong Gun also showed his dedication in his approach to the drama, revealing that he hadn't slept for two days leading up to the conference.
The actor is gaining praise and admiration for his role as the perfect man Kim Do Jin in 'A Gentleman's Dignity', showing off a previously unknown humorous and light-hearted side.
