Talking about his character,Kim Jae Young explained, "Han Da-on is a very relatable character. The director wanted him to be the link between the drama’s fantasy and the real world. At first, I got some criticism, but over time, viewers started to understand him better."
Kim also opened up about some challenges on set, including a moment when he fainted during a tough action scene. “We were filming action scenes in the middle of summer, and I actually passed out. It made me realize my body isn’t what it used to be, so I’m much more careful now.”
He shared more about the experience, saying, “We were shooting a fight scene on a bus, and it was so hot. I was using a lot of strength, and suddenly, I just blacked out. I couldn’t breathe, and it was honestly scary. I’d never fainted before, so it really shook me. Now, whenever I do action scenes, I’m extra careful, always wondering, ‘What if something goes wrong?’ But the crew was amazing and made sure I was safe.”
Kim Jae Young’s dedication to his role and honesty about his experience has gained even more respect from fans of The Judge from Hell.
