Choi Woo Sik Talks About Love And 'Fool's Love'

Choi Woo Sik recently wrapped up his role in "Fool's Love, a drama in which he was loved by two people, the lawyer by Im Seulong and the professional swimmer played by played Uee. Even though they used the device of mistaken identify, the drama dealt with some controversial issues, including homosexuality, in a more open way than k-dramas usually do. Im Seulong's character thought he loved Choi Woo Sik's character Ho Gu but he was basing his feelings on a kiss he once exchanged with Ho Gu's twin sister, played by Lee Soo Kyung.

He thought that she was her twin brother and this led to confusion about his sexual preference. While that mistaken notion was played for laughs it lasted long enough for him to experience the fact that you cannot help who you love. Or the truth that some people are penalized for feelings they cannot help. In a recent interview with Korean media outlet Star News, Choi Woo Sik spoke about working with his co-star Im Seulong and how much he enjoyed shooting their close and personal scenes. In one of his favorite scenes, Im Seulong pushed him up against the wall to confront him about his feelings. " It was fun," said Choi Woo Sik. "He's taller than me and it felt weird having his breath so close to my face. There were so many NG's and we laughed so much.

It was weird but I would do it again. One more time?" It's not the first time that a role he played led viewers to question his real life preferences so he wanted to be clear on the subject. It happened before when he appeared in "Rooftop Prince" with Park Yoochun. "I was misunderstood a lot in 'Rooftop Prince' when I played the eunuch but I like women," he said. "It's not easy dealing with homosexuality in our country. It was only possible because it wasn't explicit. Please don't misunderstand." Choi Woo Sik appeared in "Fated To Love You" and "Pride and Prejudice" before taking the starring role in "Fool's Love." He is now up for a role in the action horror film "Busan Bound," a film in which a virus turns people into zombies. Gong Yoo is also considering a role in the film, playing a man who is trapped on a train when zombies strike. -Asian Daily
