The stars of the upcoming tvN's "Touch Your Heart" discussed drama reunion after 'Goblin'. On January 29, a press conference was held at the Imperial Palace Hotel in Seoul, with actors Yoo In Na, Lee Dong Wook, Son Sung Yoon, Lee Sang Woo and director Park Jun Hwa in attendance.
Touch Your Heat is a romantic comedy that follows the story Kwon Jung Rok (Lee Dong Wook), a successful lawyer who always wins his cases and has high credibility to his clients, and Oh Jin Shim (Yoo In Na), an actress who uses the stage name Oh Yoon Seo after a scandal takes place. She will be employed as Kwon Jung Rok's secretary under false pretenses, hoping to clear her name and return as an actress.
When Park Jun Hwa was asked about Yoo In Na and Lee Dong Wook's reunion since Goblin, he said he's not worried the previous series would negatively affect their upcoming drama, Soompi reported. The director said the two matched the description of each character. He described Yoo In Na as cute, lovable, with a bright personality, while Lee Dong Wook is very handsome and an actor who can maximize Kwong Jung Rok's image.
Yoo In Na and Lee Dong Wook also talked about their drama reunion after Goblin. The actor said their chemistry in the previous series was an honor, but their characters in Touch Your Heart are completely different. The actress also said she's thankful to Goblin because a lot of people are paying attention to their upcoming drama. She added Lee Dong Wook's character in the new series is different from the previous one, wherein she he pitied his character in Goblin, but she's attracted to Kwon Jung Rok in Touch Your Heart.
Lee Dong Wook's character is a Tsundere - someone who has a cold outward behavior but actually caring and warm. The actor said he's like Kwon Jung Rok since he is not very friendly in real life. The director told him to act like a Tsundere, and not being someone who is rude.
Yoo In Na's character is described as "the universe's goddess." The actress said she asked the director why he chose her for the role as she thought a beautiful woman who could represent the country should play the role. The director told her he wanted to fully utilize the loveliest and brightest side of her, and that's when she decided to put the pressure aside.
The stars are also hoping for high viewership ratings. Lee Dong Wook said that although Goblin had high viewership ratings, he only contributed to one or two percent. So, he's hoping Touch Your Heart will also have good and high viewership ratings. Yoo In Na is also hoping their upcoming drama will reach higher viewership ratings. Lee Dong Wook also joked they'll give out coffee if they reach viewership ratings of 10 percent or higher.
Touch Your Heart will be airing its first episode on February 6 at 9:30 p.m. KST.
