"The Queen of Office" star Jo Kwon's interview.

In the KBS drama "The Queen of Office", 2AM member Jo Kwon played the role of a 25-year-old Gye Kyung Woo. Even though the role was Jo Kwon's first attempt at acting, it appeared as though Gye Kyung Woo was created for Jo Kwon.

It has been reported that the cast and crew of the drama went on a short trip together on May 23. People who were present at the event stated that Jo Kwon was the life of the party.

Regarding this, Jo Kwon stated, "I arrived late at night because I had a different schedule. It was around the time when everyone was cleaning up and getting ready to sleep. Even so, they welcomed me so happily. To make up for the situation, I performed a passionate Jo Kwon concert. Actress Kim Hye Soo even filmed my performance (laugh)."

Jo Kwon explained his role in the drama, "I would have been happier if the process of Gye Kyung Woo crushing on Jung Joo Ri was more detailed. I am satisfied with my performance because I think I was successful in portraying Gye Kyung Woo's unique thoughts and emotions. When I read the script, I thought this love line was so cute. The production crew could have edited a lot of my scenes out because of the lack of time but they brought them to life."

On his co-star and highly respected actress Kim Hye Soo, Jo Kwon stated, "Kim Hye Soo is such a great leader and very admirable. Even on set, I think almost all of the relationships were created because of her. She complimented me on my acting and my solo album, which gave me a lot of confidence. She likes Lady Gaga just like I do and we agreed on a lot of things. Even on set, we played around chatting away. Even though she is a top actress, she has a very easy going side of her."

Jo Kwon continued, "Being a trainee was just like working under a short-term contract since it is not yet a career before the debut. When I go in I had to clean and do a lot of housekeeping on top of practice. And sometimes at the end of the month, somebody had to leave. Can you imagine how many different types of people I saw while I was a trainee for 8 years?"

When he was asked to comment on Lim Seunlong's acting, Jo Kwon stated, "He has a lot of passion and dedication for acting. He has a lot of interest and studies very hard. Unlike other members, he continued to watch 'The Queen of Office' even the last episode. In my opinion, he is definitely an actor with a lot of possibilities of growth. It may be a bit awkward since he is in a historical drama but I know the audience already knows."

Also Jo Kwon was asked to comment on the rival MBC drama "Gu Family Book" which is starred by Bae Suzy of miss A.

Jo Kwon answered, "To be honest, I didn't have much time to watch 'Gu Family Book' because we were constantly filming. I don't think we even thought about the other person's work. However I kept myself updated on the response from the viewers by checking online. Suzy is doing very well."

Then Jo Kwon concluded, "All the actors from 'The Queen of Office' worked very hard to provide a time of healing for the viewers. I want to thank all the people that are in all levels of the society."
