Lee Do Hyun, the actor known for his role in “The Glory” on Netflix, recently spoke about the difficulty of portraying different sides of his character in the new drama “The Good Bad Mother.” The character in question is shown in two distinct stages of life: a hardened prosecutor on one hand, and a carefree child on the other.
In an interview, Lee Do Hyun revealed that he was immediately drawn to the challenge presented by the script. He said, “It’s a very warm and healing script. I thought [this character] would be really difficult to act, and I decided to star in the drama with the mindset of taking on a challenge.”
He went on to explain his approach to playing the character, noting the importance of differentiating between the two stages of his life without appearing awkward. “The differences between his time as a prosecutor and when he becomes young are clear,” he said, “but I thought a lot about how to not appear awkward. In particular, I tried to differentiate with how [Kang Ho] appears when he is with other characters.”
Lee Do Hyun’s performance in “The Good Bad Mother” has been praised by critics and audiences alike for his nuanced portrayal of a complex character. The drama explores themes of motherhood, family, and the impact of one’s past on their present.
