Cannot resist extracting the below from Nance’s translation of the Star News’ article on Park Sihoo-ssi praising his performance as Choi Cheonjung ( CCJ) in WCR :
“ His perfect digestion of a colourful character of a charismatic leader”; “ He gave a great performance in every scene he appeared and successfully raised audience immersion to the highest level”.
The reporter has absolutely hit the nail on the head. This has been the reason why as fans who admire his acting talent immeasurably, we could never take our eyes off him whenever he appeared in a scene in any of his previous dramas. His aura and strong stage presence always place him centre stage as far as discerning fans are concerned. So its not surprising he has succeeded once again in his fascinating role as the Face Reader/ Kingmaker in WCR. In fact its not exaggeration that he has outperformed his previous personal best given the many faceted colourful character of CCJ. And it’s his total ability to digest and immerse in his character which in turn causes his audience’s immersion into the drama to the highest level. Now that is something not all lead actors can achieve …. yet Sihoo-ssi achieves it everytime, without fail. Is there need to wonder anymore why his dramas are greatly treasured by those who appreciate top accomplished acting talent. For sure there will be lots of binge watching of WCR ….and for many it’s to be mesmerised by CCJ through Sihoo-ssi. 🤩🤩🤩
Natural charisma is a gift that can benefit those with positive intentions. In the historical drama “Wind,Cloud, and Rain”, Choi Cheonjung, interpreted by ParkShihoo-ssi, becomes a charismatic leader because he mainly is able to express the expectations of his people, becomes the translator of the aspirations of a great mass of people. Being concerned about making others feel good about themselves, than he is making them to feel good about him. He knows his great projects depend on him and becomes a charismatic leader. Park Shihoo-ssi” s acting is a gift and playing Choi Cheonjung becomes incredibly charismatic. Being impressively successful, being very beautiful, it’s very hard to take your eyes off him, and he can lay down his parteners , in acting, under the heaviness of his talent.He accepts the responsability for himself and his actions. And as usual, he becomes a charismatic leader, actor, as we saw him in all his dramas. Congratulations Park Shihoo-ssi!❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏
