Sep 3, 2024

Geum Sae Rok has talked about her character in KBS2’s upcoming weekend drama “Iron Family”!

Penned by screenwriter Seo Sook Hyang of “Pasta,” “Don’t Dare to Dream” (also known as “Jealousy Incarnate”), and “Wok of Love,” “Iron Family” is a dark comedy about a family that has run a laundry business for three generations.

Geum Sae Rok stars as Lee Da Rim, the youngest daughter of Cheongnyeom Laundry family. Da Rim, who has had a rare illness since she was 14 that progressively narrows her vision, is a strong and determined character who rejects sympathy. While she holds onto hope of restoring her sight, she faces a significant challenge due to the high cost of surgery.

Geum Sae Rok explained why she chose to star in “Iron Family.” She revealed, “Despite Da Rim’s visual impairment, I found her strong and confident image very attractive. She is a character with diverse charms, which made me eager to take on the role.”

“The story was so interesting that I thought that it was just up to me to do a good job. I am very happy and grateful to work with the writer and director,” she shared. The actress also mentioned that the atmosphere on set is very positive, with the director being a great guide in developing her character.

Regarding playing a visually impaired character, Geum Sae Rok remarked, “I researched a lot on how to handle the character’s gaze and movements. Since the character can still see a bit, I wanted to portray her as naturally as possible. I paid close attention to how the camera angles affected her gaze and monitored each scene carefully to fix any awkward parts.”
