Woman: With his meteoric rise to fame last year, actor Ahn Jae-hyun stole the ladies' hearts. Only one year since his debut, he was cast as the lead in the Mon-Tue drama Blood. He tries out a new concept as a vampire doctor who wants to become human.

Man: These days it's really good.

Caption: First leading role's pressure?

Woman: As the lead role you must be feeling a lot of pressure.

Jae-hyun: Yes.

I can't show you the script now, but

Caption: Always looking at the script...

Jae-hyun: it's almost falling to pieces now. I always have it in my hand.

Woman: So you're making a big effort?

Caption: First lead role/Effort is the only way to succeed!

Jae-hyun: Of course, I have to work hard.

Woman: It can't have been easy for his first lead role to be the new-style role of a vampire doctor.

Caption: Action acting?

Jae-hyun: I've studied that feeling quite a lot. I've watched a lot of things. I've also exercised and practised for the action.

Caption: Also attending real surgery...?

Woman: I heard you also attended some real surgery...?

Jae-hyun: Yes, I watched a lot of procedures. The word is tying? There are some tying and sewing scenes. I practised for sewing up wounds and doing surgery.

Pale skin ideal for the role of a vampire

Jae-hyun: So that happened, and I really wanted to study, but I had no choice.

Secret to a young face?

Woman: You look really youthful. I can hardly believe you're 29.

Woman: Already?

Jae-hyun: Yes. I had this face when I was in my teens.

Woman: Ahn Jae-hyun was a model before becoming an actor. He had a divine manly appearance.

It can't have been easy changing from modelling to acting.

Caption: From model to new actor?

Jae-hyun: I read this in a book;

To make a fruit, a flower must first blossom and die.
