Na In Woo Shares Details About His Role As An Unlucky Man Who Gets Tangled Up With Girls’ Generation’s Seohyun In “Jinxed At First”

May 31, 2022

Na In Woo talked about his new character Gong Soo Kwang in the upcoming drama “Jinxed at First”!

Based on a webtoon of the same name, “Jinxed at First” is a fantasy romance drama about what happens when a poor, unlucky man, who has accepted his unfortunate fate, meets a goddess of fortune, who jumps out into the unknown to undo a curse despite having been hidden away by a chaebol family.

Girls’ Generation’s Seohyun plays the role of Seul Bi, who has the special ability of seeing the future of any person she touches. Due to this ability, Seul Bi is forced to suffer the shame of living in captivity. When Seul Bi gets to spend a magical day with Gong Soo Kwang (Na In Woo), she’s introduced to a new world she has yet to experience.

Na In Woo will be playing Seodong Market’s fish seller Gong Soo Kwang who has a special jinx and an unfortunate swamp of bad luck. The handsome, kind, and skilled Gong Soo Kwang ends up living a completely transformed life after an unpredictable incident. Although he’s accepted his unfortunate fate, his life is changed all over again when he meets Seul Bi, a goddess of fortune.

The actor introduced his character, saying, “Although he lives in a state of bad luck, I think he has versatile charms where he has various emotions whenever he undergoes hardships and changes. He’s similar to me because no matter how hard things get, he doesn’t show it and tries to carry everything on his own, and he also doesn’t show his emotions very well.”

To describe Gong Soo Kwang in three keywords, Na In Woo chose “Gong Soo Kwang,” Go Myung Sung,” and “Soo Kwang + Myung Sung.” In the drama, Gong Soo Kwang gets a second name “Go Myung Sung” due to an incident, and Na In Woo expressed his character as one that cannot be explained by any other words. Fans are already eager too learn about Gong Soo Kwang’s backstory and how he ended up with two names.

Na In Woo talked about the efforts he made to portray Gong Soo Kwang, saying, “Since he is a person who constantly strives for his goal, I tried to express his patience and perseverance as he goes through a difficult process.”

He continued, “I tried to show [the viewers] how Gong Soo Kwang forgets his past and finds what he truly loves through his meeting and parting with Seul Bi.” He explained that he also wanted to depict how Gong Soo Kwang, who used the growing pains of his past when he had no courage to break free from his weakness, guilt, and fear, changed into a stronger person through Seul Bi who helped him find his true self.

“Jinxed at First” premieres on June 15 at 9:50 p.m. KST.
