Actress Seo Hyun Jin has opened up about her behind-the-scenes experience on The Trunk and shared some surprising details about her preparation for the role.
In a recent video released on the 'Netflix Korea' channel, Seo Hyun Jin gave fans an exclusive look at some of the items from the show. One item she highlighted was a USB filled with tango music, which she explained was essential to her preparation.
She revealed, “I insisted on learning tango from the beginning. Tango instructors aren’t something you see everywhere. It's a passion-driven job, so I knew it was something I had to experience myself to truly understand my character.”
Seo Hyun Jin continued to explain the deep connection she made with tango for her role. “I thought that in order to understand my character, I needed to understand why someone would fall in love with tango,” she said. “I wanted to know what kind of person would be drawn to this dance. I think that's why I worked so hard to learn it.”
She went on to describe how tango, being a dance that requires partnership, played a crucial role in her character development. “Tango is a dance you do with someone,”
Seo Hyun Jin shared. “I realized that relationships are really important in this character’s life. You rely on someone, you move forward together, but when that bond breaks, everything can come to a halt. "
She added, "My instructors taught me something really important: ‘You two are dancing together, but you can’t completely rely on each other, nor can you stand completely alone. You have to find that balance.’ I thought that was a lot like life.”
The Trunk is a mysterious show about a unique marriage service revealed through an eerie trunk by the lakeside, exploring the strange marriage journey of two people. The show premiered on November 29.
