Kim Nam Gil Talks About His Role In "Through The Darkness," Why He Chose The Drama, And More
Kim Nam Gil recently participated in an interview with OSEN!
In the interview, Kim Nam Gil shared why he chose to take part in the drama, who his character is, and more.
Set in the late 1990s, “Through the Darkness” is based on the story of the first criminal profiler in South Korea, who looked into the hearts of serial killers at a time when random, motiveless murders were on the rise and the word “profiling” did not yet exist.
Kim Nam Gil stars as Song Ha Young, a member of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency’s Criminal Behavior Analysis team. Jin Sun Kyu plays friend and colleague Guk Young Soo, who originally brought Song Ha Young into the Criminal Behavior Analysis team.
Kim Nam Gil talked about the challenges he faced with his character, saying, “I thought that this was a character that I’ve never played before. I also liked the fact that I would be able to portray the character as Korea’s first profiler. Another factor that was different about this role was that this character actually exists in reality, so I thought this would be a good challenge to take on.”
The actor continued on to say, “What’s quite charming about this drama is the fact that it’s based on non-fiction reportage. I liked the fact that the drama sends the message that everyone has to be responsible for their own lives, and the world is meant for people to work together and socialize.”
Kim Nam Gil also shared his deep analysis of his character. “Song Ha Young emphasizes justice and is very responsible. He is able to empathize with people in any situation. However, he seems like a cold person. He’s sensitive and has a great attention to detail. He’s determined and doesn’t give up when he starts something.”
“Through the Darkness” is expected to capture viewers’ attention with the actors’ amazing acting abilities and impactful story line. The drama premieres on January 14 at 10 p.m. KST. Check out a teaser here!
