I love ROI so much I don’t want it to end (currently at ep 18).

As a side comment, being that I’m also an actress, I want to say that in our line of work an actor that’s more absorbed and dedicated to the character script always delivers a commanding performance. Shoot hours are long, hard, and grueling, call times and set shoots reqiure absolute concentration with a bare minimum in the mistakes department(Directors and DOP’s usually only allow this if your a greenie, the more experienced the actor the higher the expectations). Acting is not just fun and games as it appears to outsiders it is fulltime-all the time, with a little dash of fun. Cause why be an actor if you don’t enjoy what you do, right?

So I give Il-Woo and Moon props for their deliveries as well as the supporting actors. A lot goes into making a series or movie and there are too many out there who don’t fully understand nor appreciate the scope involved to create and bring to life a story to screen. So any one who reads this I hope I’ve brought to light a better understanding of what it takes to be an actor/actress, among many other things, and try not to slam a series because you didn’t like it. That only means that you didn’t understand what you were watching and have to encounter such experiences and allow others to be happy with the end result.-Jenna

But seriously, all the script hugging and note taking is paying off as I think his acting has been great throughout Iljimae. I get the sense that Jung Il Woo is really connected with the character, which is why I like him better as Iljimae rather than Lee Jun Ki (I felt as if it was the story that was carrying him along, not the acting to be honest).

And giddygirl108, SAME! LOVE his hair. It’s just so perfect..
Thanks Dramabeans!

P.S. Love the behind-the-scenes hanbok
