I am Park, the Korean Mentalist. Watch out for me!
“as fake medium, making his living by guile and manipulation, using his ferocious intelligence and keen understanding of human nature to fleece his fellowmen. Now, he still has the charm and wit of a showman, and all the strange skills of his former calling, but that bravura style is tempered by hard earned wisdom, and honesty, and a singular dedication to his own brand of truth and justice”
—Bruce Heller, writer of “The Mentalist” on Daniel Jane (renamed Patrick Jane
Having never watched the successful American crime beat series “The Mentalist”, I have been reading up on it since I learnt that our Oppa Park Sihoo-ssi is considering taking on this role in its remake. By now, it has been confirmed that he is indeed the Korean Mentalist.
Differentiating the Korean from the American
My interest was piqued when I came across an article that quoted how British writer Bruce Heller envisioned Patrick (first coined as Daniel) Jane.
This Patrick Jane is certainly an interesting character who is so hard to fathom. Being a psychic, he is a man with exceptional insights into the ways of humans, possesses a good memory and strong deductive ability and will use these to his advantage.
You can see him as a bad guy who is an expert manipulator who pretends to be a medium to take advantage of others. Or you can choose to see him as a person who has his own “principles” in defining what constitutes justice. Or you might just consider him a man who uses his charm to get what he wants of the situation.

A most interesting and challenging role that the American Mentalist has done successfully to interpret what the writer has envisioned. With the Korean remake, how then would Park Sihoo-ssi interpret this character?
I have no doubt that this tried and tested brilliant Korean actor will have his own way to convincingly portray this complicated character. Park Sihoo-ssi will breath a refreshing new perspective to his Korean Mentalist with his own unique characteristics and style that will differentiate him from his American counterpart. No two alike, that is for sure. And each will be successful in his own way!
And yes, Daniela, he just might have a four-legged partner who may outshine his Lisbon, if she is not too careful! Kekeke! 😄

超感神探 – 朴神探！
“作为伪假的通灵者，他利用他凶猛的才智和对人性的敏锐理解，以狡猾和操纵的手段谋生。现在，他仍然具有表演者的魅力和机智，以及他以前召唤的所有奇怪技能，但是这种勇敢的风格是辛苦磨炼出来的智慧和诚实以及对自己的真理和正义标准的的唯一奉献。”
—布鲁斯·海勒Bruce Heller，“超感神探的作家描述丹尼尔·简Daniel Jane（后来更名为帕特里克·简Patrick Jane）
从来没有观看过成功的美国抓犯罪者系列”超感神探（超感警探）“，所以自从得知偶吧Oppa 施厚君正在考虑在其韩国翻拍中扮演这个角色以来，一直在研究这部电视剧。现在，偶吧Oppa 已经确认出演这角色了。
刚好看到一篇文章，引述英国作家布鲁斯·海勒如何设定帕特里克（开始取名为丹尼尔）·简，引发了我的兴趣。

帕特里克·简是非常有趣，很难理解的角色。作为一个通灵者，他是一个对人有着非凡洞察力的人，具有良好的记忆力和强大的演绎能力，并利用这些优势来发挥自己的好处。
你可以把他看成是一个坏人，是个熟练的操纵者，假装做通灵者去利用他人来利己。或者，你可以选择将他视为一个有自己定义的正义“原则”的人。也可能认为他是一个在不同情况下，利用自己的魅力去获取自己所需要的人。
美国的”超感神探（超感警探）“成功地解释作家的构想，演出了这有趣和具有挑战性的角色。随着韩国的翻拍，施厚君将如何解释这个角色呢？
Challenge of the success of Jane
毫无疑问，这位经过考验的韩国优秀演员将以自己的方式，令人信服地描绘这个复杂的角色。 施厚君将以他独特的特征和风格给他的韩国”超感神探（超感警探）“崭新的视角，这将使他与美国同行有区分。 肯定不会是两个一样的演出。 每位都会以自己的方式和风格而取得成功！
是的，丹妮拉Daniela，他可能会有一只四只腿的伙伴，如果他的里斯本Lisbon不谨慎的话，她可能会被代替了！哈哈哈 ！ 😄
