- ENA's acting debut with 'Drunk Romance' ended on the 10th
- "The opposite tendency of Shim Rao...Homebody, hobby is sauna"
- "Actress role model is Hwang Jung-min..."I want to be a familiar actor".

"Sejeong and Jongwon knew it was my first debut, so they gave me a lot of advice. I was touched. I also voted for IOI, and it was amazing that we got to act together. You could get used to it, but it was a fascinating feeling until the end of the shoot."On the set of

, a newbie full of unexpected charm appeared, who had no choice but to monopolize the love of his seniors. Ha Min-hyuk (22), a new actor who impressed viewers with the drama "Drunk Romance." The unexpected charm, contrary to the urban visuals, made the actor more curious.

Starting with actors Kim Se-jung and Lee Jong-won, he constantly talked about his gratitude and what he learned from the senior actors he worked with in "Drunk Romance," but his sharpness and comfortable charm made him see how he was able to open his seniors' hearts on the set.

I met actor Ha Min-hyuk, who visited YTN's office building in Sangam-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul on the morning of the 12th. To commemorate the end of the ENA Monday-Tuesday drama "Drunk Romance", we will meet the media for the first time in our lives. The visuals, which seemed to be a mixture of actors Lee Jong-seok and Choi Woo-sik, were visible from a distance.

Ha Min-hyuk made his debut in "Drunk Romance" as Shim Rao, an employee of the ground mainstream planning team. Shim Rao is a kangaroo tribe and has strong individualistic tendencies. However, Shim Rao is growing into a person who meets people who are mainstream on the ground and takes care of people around her.

Ha Min-hyuk showed stable acting skills by taking on one of the main characters from his first debut film. In this interview, I heard a variety of stories, including how he was able to appear like a comet with a big weight from the first work and the path to becoming an actor in the future.

◆ "Kim Se-jung and Lee Jong-won who gave me a lot of advice..."I learned the main character's posture".Ha Min-hyuk

announced the casting of the drama 'Drunk Romance' in September along with the news of his exclusive contract with his current agency, BAA. Ha Min-hyuk was the only actor who had no acting experience among the actors who appeared as a member of the TF team of the liquor company, but he performed the emotional explosion and growth narrative shown in his father's episode with acting skills that were not like a rookie.

"I think the director wanted to see the boldness and honesty of the MZ generation. I think I tried on glasses at auditions and prepared a lot of things to give that kind of feeling. I think my strength as an actor is also honesty, but I think I become more honest in expressing my thoughts and feelings while acting."

Shim Rao, played by him, is a character who can look rather cheeky at the beginning of the play. Ha Min-hyuk accepted the character rule in a good way because it was recognized that the audience's reaction was also recognized, and he expressed his desire to challenge himself by playing a stronger villain. However, the actual personality is the opposite of Simrao.

Shim Rao is a bold character who doesn't care about others, but I do (laughs). I'm a person who looks at the other person's reactions a lot and treats them politely enough to feel uncomfortable. "It was an opportunity to learn more about acting while playing the opposite character." (The manager added, "Sunbi style.")

{Romance to Take} contains narratives of various characters, but at the center of it was the romance between Cho Yong-joo (Kim Se-jung) and Yoon Min-ju (Lee Jong-won). Ha Min-hyuk thanked the character Shim Rao, who he played, saying that Kim Se-jung helped him a lot, just as the recruitment owner became a "saver of life."

"I've liked him since I was an I.O.I., but it was amazing to act together. Sejeong gave me a lot of ad-lib ideas and worked with me even when I wasn't on it. Jongwon was interested in the drama "Golden spoon", and it felt like he was watching a celebrity. I learned the attitude of the main character from the two who approached me first and gave me a lot of advice."

◆ "Role model is Hwang Jung-min. I want to become an actor that I feel familiar with."
Ha Min-hyuk is currently a senior in economics at Sungkyunkwan University. He is studying both his work and his major except for a year when he took a leave of absence to focus on preparing for his acting debut. As we entered the final exam period, I was surprised to hear that I had to study for the exam like other friends when I finished the interview on this day.

"I was so greedy to study well that in high school, I cried because I was upset if I didn't get good grades (laughs). When I entered college, it was the most regrettable that I couldn't meet my classmates well due to COVID-19 and made my debut. Now, I have a greater desire for acting than studying, but I'm still going to continue my studies."

On the other hand, her hobbies are oboe, hapkido, and acrobatic. He smiled and waved his hands when he heard that he had taken the course of his mother's friend. In the profile, I wrote down things I liked and was good at when I was young, and what I'm into these days is sauna.

"I think it's good because the waste will be discharged after going to the sauna. I don't like drinking and I'm a "homebody" so there's nothing new (laughs). I think there were only happy things this year, and I want to grow more next year, so I want to take care of my body more through exercise or grow more somehow."

Actor Hwang Jung-min was mentioned as an actor role model. Ha Min-hyuk's first interest in acting and his dream of becoming an actor was the movie "A Violent Prosecutor," starring Hwang Jung-min and Kang Dong-won, which he watched when he was in school, and he likes Hwang Jung-min's unique life acting.

"I felt cathartic when I saw Hwang Jung-min acting that produced his unique anger, and I thought I wanted to try that kind of acting. I want to be an actor who is familiar with life acting well. Please look forward to our future growth."
