In an interview obtained by a news portal, the actor talks about the changes he did to play his first villain role.
Too young to be a gang boss, Park Jong Doo hides his personality and wants to look intimidating through tattoos.
He revealed that the production team took 3 hours to cover his body with tattoos using very realistic-looking stickers.
"The design was made by the director and tattooist Aerok. I just gave my opinion here and there, and everything came together very well," he said.
Moreover, Seo In Guk purposely gained 16 kilograms to fit in his character's image.
"I thought he needs to have an [intimidating] aura, which is why I bulked up in size," he said, adding that his goal is "to reach the level of a UFC fighter. It's like how it feels different to see a very ferocious wolf than just a wolf."
"Project Wolf Hunting" is Seo In Guk's next project after the rom-com series "Cafe Minamdang."
Interestingly, he is in talks to headline the cast of "Smoking Gun" penned by "Cafe Minamdang" screenwriter.
