Ji Chang Wook's real personality - Interview with Healer or Park Bong Soo?

Rising actor Ji Chang Wook came in for a personal interview with a common greeting and bow. It was just like meeting the character Park Bong Soo (the character he played in the recent SBS drama- Healer

His big round eyes and bright smile with deep voice- Ji Chang Wook is the new star of the year. After his fame from last year's long costume period drama Empress Ki with Ha Ji Won as Emperor Tae Hwan, he has now unleashed another charm of his to the public. 

First it was heroes such as Super Man, Iron Man and then 'Healer' who captured the hearts of women on screen. Ji Chang Wook took on the role for the KBS2TV drama as a night messenger hiding his real identity and goes by the nickname of 'Healer'. And then he stumbles across the match of his life who is the nosy Reporter Chae Young Shin (played by actress Park Min Young) in this Someday paper. Healer then took the name of Park Bong Soo to work in Someday paper and to protect Young Shin from the baddies. 

Ji Chang Wook has expressed that his real life personality is similar to the character Park Bong Soo. He is no difference when he plays as Bong Soo since it's just him. Healer has served as a hero type drama and on the other hand people will really like Bong Soo. And the usual characteristic of Bong Soo- he fears everything (he laughs). Healer is an action drama with lots of tight ropes swinging, sprinting from one building to another so while filming the entire drama it was quite dangerous and requires lots of attention. And above all safety is the most important aspect in filming this drama.

If one gets hurt, it will stop the entire drama from being broadcasted on time. So everyone was extra careful in handling their tasks. So everyone practise over and over. Healer remains on top spot for the weekly dramas. Thanks to mostly the excellent casts and staffs. Fans were happy to see the transformation of the meek like lamb Park Bong Soo to the giddy dangerous Healer at night. Citing the success of this work, Ji Chang Wook felt it was his responsiblity to work hard and leave the ratings to the audience to judge for themselves.

With the kissing scenes with actress Park Min Young, he'd go and sighed again asking her he has to do these physical contacts such as hugging and kissing her. And of course they are good friends even though Park Min Young is elder than him as in 'Noona'. After this drama, he is still hooked onto this role. He has revealed his aspirations to work on different roles. He accepts criticism which is beneficial for him in improvement and takes to another challenge.
