Seo In Guk to debut as an actor with 'Love Rain'

Singer Seo In Guk will knock on the door of the acting world with KBS's 'Love Rain'.

Earlier today, the marketing team for 'Love Rain' stated, "Seo In Guk will transform into a law student named Kim Chang Mo who dominated music cafes in the 70's. The character is a romanticist, crazy about guitar and music. Seo In Guk even gained weight to portray a optimistic yet lazy character."

Seo In Guk shared about his thoughts on this new challenge, "I really wanted the role as Kim Chang Mo. I went into it with the thought 'Let's not show Seo In Guk in Kim Chang Mo.' I even tried hard to walk like Kim Chang Mo. Because I'm so engaged in the character, the fans are disappointed at seeing someone so different from the Seo In Guk they used to know, but that's the exact response I wanted."

He continued, "It was my first time acting so of course it was very difficult. But my friend Jang Geun Suk helped me a lot in acting and analyzing the character. Thanks to him I was able to get used to acting faster. The first episode of 'Love Rain' is approaching quickly and I'm really excited to see how it turned out. I hope many will watch."

The director complimented Seo In Guk by saying, "Even though it was his first time acting, Seo In Guk is talented and was able to portray the character well. People will be seeing a very different side of him in the drama."

The highly anticipated 'Love Rain' starring Jang Geun Suk and YoonA from Girl's Generation will air its first episode on March 26th.
