"I think the vampire role really suits me."

-Lee Jonghyun is starring in the drama Orange Marmalade(OM) playing the role of a lonely young vampire. Also, trying the married life in WGM, being in the reality show Fluttering India with other K-POP idols, excelling on many levels. This time, we look back at the story behind starring in Orange Marmalade, impressions on being in variety shows and solo activities.

I already knew the web manga OM. Even though it is a vampire story, I found it very interesting. I’m playing Shihoo, a meaningful character, who speaks for a weak minority.

-A vampire role is somewhat special, how did you prepare for it?

When I got the vampire role, I thought it’s perfect for me. I have white skin, and it suits me.
Before doing the actual shooting, I practice a lot of facial expressions. I worried a lot. I needed to control (my) gazes, as human and as vampire.

-The second part started broadcasting. The second part depicts events from 300 years ago with historical clothing. Were there hardships with the action scenes?

It’s my first periodical drama, I was very nervous. I uploaded pics on my Instagram wearing the historical costume. I liked it. When there are action scenes, even applying make-up for wounds became an unusually fun experience.

-Your good relationship with Yeo Jingoo on set became news; please tell us an event with your costars and how the atmosphere is on set.

Both Jingoo and Seolhyun helped me in a lot of ways. Even though I’m older, they are dependable. When I act, I immerse myself and they help me with that, and the atmosphere on set is harmonious.

-You are also appearing on WGM; please tell us what did you feel when you first found out about being on it, the reason for accepting and impressions about your partner

WGM is a program I was curious about since before. Impressions about my partner Gong Seungyeon-“ Her eyes are really pretty…” that’s what I thought. She’s a kind and lovely person.
