Suho, of K-pop group EXO, has ventured into the period drama genre for the first time in his acting career, with a turn in MBN’s romantic comedy series Missing Crown Prince – which concluded with a viewership rating of 5.1 per cent on June 16.
“I’ve always given my best effort in every moment, down to the smallest detail. During Missing Crown Prince, I rarely spent time with friends. I would read the script even while eating and continue until I went to sleep,” the actor says.
“That’s how much effort I’ve put into it, so I have no regrets or disappointments. I feel relieved and much lighter at heart. However, it doesn’t mean I’m completely satisfied. I will identify my shortcomings and areas for improvement as I move on to the next step.”
The historical romcom series, set in the era of Joseon dynasty rule (1392-1910) in Korea, revolves around fictional Crown Prince Yi Gun (Suho) and Choi Myung-yoon (Hong Ye-Ji), the daughter of a royal doctor.
