[trans] U-Know Yunho, Removing the tag of the controversy over his acting abilities for the first time in 5 years

‘Exceeding viewers’ expectations and showing the most stable acting amongst the main lead quartet in “Journal of Night Watchmen”
‘For the first time in 5 years since his first drama “Heading to the Ground”, he is making rapid progress’

Although MBC Monday-Tuesday drama “Journal of Night Watchmen” only disappointed the viewers with its loose scriptwriting and directing, to the extent of male duo TVXQ member U-Know Yunho who had appeared through the role of Moo Seok, it appears that he will remember this as an extraordinary production.

-details about Yunho’s past dramas omitted-

However, now that the lid has been uncovered, outside of expectations, U-Know Yunho showed acting abilities which were the most suitable for period dramas amongst the main lead quartet, adducing reviews such as “It’s unexpected”, “His acting has improved a lot”. For the charismatic character of Moo Seok who is filled with loyalty towards the King, he solemnly acted out this character with a low voice and his acting scenes acting also did not have any inadequacy in capturing the attention of the viewers. For the scene where Moo Seok was sobbing when confronted with the death of his younger sister, unlike when he was standing on the stage as a singer, although U-KnowYunho did not even show any inch of coolness / suaveness and the tears and mucus were all flowing, it was therefore that it was even more memorable instead.

If it can be said that the other lead actors contributed to the disappointment towards “Journal of Night Watchmen” when they acted with modern drama speaking tones which were either too excessively strong or incompatible with period dramas, unexpectedly, U-Know Yunho, who had always been tagged with the “controversy over acting abilities”, surprised viewers with his acting abilities which exceeded expectations.

As always, there is room where he has to improve on problems such as pronunciation or speed of dialogue. However, if one were to compare against his acting abilities during the time of “Heading to the Ground”, the hard work of U-Know Yunho is estimated to be worthy of one developing anticipation for his future activities. Appearing in MBC “Star Gazing” before the broadcast of this drama, U-Know Yunho had shown an honourable stand before, referring to his own controversy over his acting abilities and saying “I had received various scoldings from people and many criticisms. However, this is good. Instead, I think that negative comments are left because there is response and interest.”
